When the evening arrived there was a great audience. Half of the people had come to applaud, the other half to antagonize. I was received, however, with what seemed a united acclaim.
All to be seen was shame for captivity and regret for the right to antagonize. After the men had celebrated sufficiently they settled down behind the old rail fence, on the opposite side to the one from which their foes had been driven. A few shot perfunctorily at distant marks. There was some long grass. The youth nestled in it and rested, making a convenient rail support the flag.
An angry man may be made to antagonize the neutrals and even to insult his friends and Thelismer Thornton was not patient when provoked. There was shrewd management behind this revolt. Suddenly the yard was full of men, new arrivals. It was an orderly little army, woodsmen with meal-sack packs, an incoming crew on its march to the woods. A big man plodded ahead and marshalled them.
More likely the king and the privy council, while doubting the charges against the women, had been reluctant to antagonize public sentiment by declaring them innocent. It is disagreeable to have to state that Lancaster was not yet through with its witches. Early in the next year the Bishop of Chester was again called upon by the privy council to look into the cases of four women.
That a country which makes a constant boast of its practical intelligence should delight in long, flat, cumbrous collections of syllables, such as "locate," "operate," "antagonize," "transportation," "commutation," and "proposition," is an irony of civilisation.

He knew how to handle her, and she knew he knew.
"Not in opposition to the Governor; they would never dare antagonize him; tomorrow you will return with Chevet." I drew a quick breath, my eyes on his face. "How can you know all this, Monsieur? Why should my uncle sacrifice me?" "No matter how I know. Some of it has been your own confession, coupled with my knowledge of the man.
Besides, he had no wish to antagonize Honey. But his dance with some faded, heavy-footed woman was not to be. Jerry once more signalled him and drew him outside for a little private conference. Jerry was ill at ease and inclined to be reproachful and even condemnatory. He wanted first to know why Bud had been such a many kinds of a fool as to make that bet with Jeff Hall.
"You would rob me of one of the solid comforts of my life if you took from me the belief that I have been able to strengthen her for her great work." "I am sure you have encouraged her to go on," said Mrs. Hilbrough, desirous not to antagonize Mrs. Frankland. "But she also needs moderating.
This he seems to have attempted vigorously, but by argument rather than invective. Even during the height of the indignation against him Douglass disclaimed any desire to antagonize his former associates. He simply realized that there was more than one way to fight slavery, which knew a dozen ways to maintain itself, and had concluded to select the one that seemed most practical.
