I smil'd on you; and sometimes kiss'd you too; but for my sister's sake, I play'd with you, suffer'd your hands and lips to wander where I dare not now; all which I thought a sister might allow a brother, and knew not all the while the treachery of love: oh none, but under that intimate title of a brother, could have had the opportunity to have ruin'd me; that, that betray'd me; I play'd away my heart at a game I did not understand; nor knew I when 'twas lost, by degrees so subtle, and an authority so lawful, you won me out of all.

There will in my opinion be no general progress in such eligibility till a sensible, philosophic, democratic method is substituted. The Turk regarded and regards women as animals without soul, toys to be play'd with or broken at pleasure, and to be hidden, partly from shame, but chiefly for the purpose of stimulating exhausted passion.

I touch'd upon the string on which hung all her sorrows: she look'd with wistful disorder for some time in my face; and then, without saying any thing, took her pipe and play'd her service to the Virgin. The string I had touched ceased to vibrate; in a moment or two Maria returned to herself, let her pipe fall, and rose up. And where are you going, Maria? said I. She said, to Moulines.

Slawkenbergius was play'd upon, for aught I know, like one of Whitefield's disciples that is, with such a distinct intelligence, Sir, of which of the two masters it was that had been practising upon his instrument as to make all reasoning upon it needless.

Things look'd exceedingly desperate. K. had two fine bands, and order'd them up immediately; they join'd and play'd "Yankee Doodle" with a will! It went through the men like lightning but to inspire, not to unnerve. Every man seem'd a giant. They charged like a cyclone, and cut their way out. Their loss was but 20. It was about two in the afternoon. Walking Down Pennsylvania Avenue April 7, 1864.

Before these fields were shorn and till'd, Full to the brim our rivers flow'd; The melody of waters fill'd The fresh and boundless wood; And torrents dash'd, and rivulets play'd, And fountains spouted in the shade. It is generally known that the waters which flow into the southern side of Ontario are, in general, narrow, sluggish, and deep.

From Grantham, till they had cross'd the Trent, my father was out of all kind of patience at the vile trick and imposition which he fancied my mother had put upon him in this affair 'Certainly, he would say to himself, over and over again, 'the woman could not be deceived herself if she could, what weakness! tormenting word! which led his imagination a thorny dance, and, before all was over, play'd the duce and all with him; for sure as ever the word weakness was uttered, and struck full upon his brain so sure it set him upon running divisions upon how many kinds of weaknesses there were; that there was such a thing as weakness of the body, as well as weakness of the mind, and then he would do nothing but syllogize within himself for a stage or two together, How far the cause of all these vexations might, or might not, have arisen out of himself.

For ever since the naming of Don Fabio he had been very attentive; but before, his Thoughts were wholly taken up with the Beauty of the Face he had seen, and from the time she had taken him by the Hand, a successive warmth and chillness had play'd about his Heart, and surpriz'd him with an unusual Transport.

Being in the mean time got ready, we walk'd we knew not where, or rather, having a mind to divert us, struck into a tennis-court, where we saw an old bald-pated fellow in a carnation-colour'd coat, playing at ball with a company of boys, nor was it so much the boys, tho' it was worth our while, that engaged us to be lookers on as the master of the house himself in pumps, who altogether tossed the ball, and never struck it after it once came to the ground, but had a servant by him, with a bag full of them, ard enough for all that play'd.

'Ay! thanks to your Styrian dungeons, where I passed a year's apprenticeship: "I learnt to watch the rats and mice At play, with never a candle-end. They play'd so well; they sang so nice; They dubb'd me comrade; called me friend!" So says the ballad of our red-beard king's captivity. All evil has a good: "When our toes and chins are up, Poison plants make sweetest cup"
