I have doubted, I have distrusted, yet who can tell, even now, what happy influence this ring might have?" "You have delayed full long to show the ring, and plead her Majesty's gracious promise," remarked the countess, "your state being what it is."
Unless we could obtain help from General Bolivar, they cried, our cause was undone. My father did not believe this; he distrusted Bolivar, and made no scruple of saying so. "Still we must find out just what he means to do," remarked San Martin one evening. "His intentions are evident," replied my father, rather bitterly. "He means to make himself master of the country, and to push you aside."
Victor realized the danger of sabotage, but he could not grow indignant about it, because he really wished injury to the capitalists. Höflinger was of course not ignorant of his ideas. Victor had a bad conscience, though this time he was innocent. He suspected that Höflinger distrusted him and anticipated that he would make use of this opportunity to frame a case against him.
Hannaford was something of an artist; her husband spoke of all art with contempt except the great art of human slaughter. She liked the society of foreigners; he, though a remarkable linguist, at heart distrusted and despised all but English-speaking folk.
Then he had sent his last letter. He had written it upon his knees, his eyes stung with terrible tears; but his hand did not falter; the letter was sent. Then he waited for the manifestation of God in Helen's soul: he distrusted himself and his own strength, but he never doubted God; he never questioned that this plan for converting his wife was a direct answer to his prayers.

I should object to such umpires, moreover, on the general and controlling principle that must govern all righteous arbitration your governors and legislators are not impartial; they are political or party men, one may say, without exception; and such umpires, when votes are in the question, are to be sorely distrusted.
God mistrusted distrusted. Satan embraced. Sin's door open. Eden's gate shut. Mark keenly the immediate result that came with that intense rapidity possible only to mental powers. At once they were both conscious of something that had not entered their thoughts before. To the pure all things are pure.
All the old sympathies of his sea-life strongly inclined him to follow Allan's suggestion; but the wind was falling light, and he distrusted the broken water and the swirling currents of the channel ahead. "This is an ugly place to take a boat into when you know nothing about it," he said. "Nonsense!" returned Allan. "It's as light as day, and we float in two feet of water."
Hence it was that for the first time in the history of the United States, an officer distasteful to the President and personally distrusted and disliked by him was forced upon him as one of his confidential advisers in the administration of the Government. In the prima facie statement of this case the Senate was in the wrong.
