This great statesman had three objects to gain by such a course. Firstly, he would stop the mouth of diplomacy, and silence the foreign press, which both charged the Pope with tolerating an abuse. Secondly, he would humiliate one of those laymen who take the liberty to rise in the world without wearing violet hose.

He supposed that she still loved him, and placed a condescending kiss on the back of her head. They entered the house and he followed her to her room. And thus they resumed their former relations, he, as a not unpleasant duty, and she, merely tolerating him.

The extreme dishonesty that prevailed among the Greek officials explains the selection of monks as treasurers for military objects; and it must lessen our surprise at finding men of their religious professions sharing in the general avarice, or tolerating the habitual peculations of others.

"You wish me to be complaisant to him?" said Klesmer, rather fiercely. "I think it is hardly worth your while to be other than civil." "You find no difficulty in tolerating him, then? you have a respect for a political platitudinarian as insensible as an ox to everything he can't turn into political capital. You think his monumental obtuseness suited to the dignity of the English gentleman."

The very kindest thing is to treat it lightly, humorously, as I did. She ought to be laughed out of tolerating such an unbecoming relationship. A woman of her age ought not to be able to blush like that." Looking down again, still with his deep flush, Jack said, "Really, Imogen, I think that you take too much upon yourself."

That was the case with Louis XIV. polite to everybody, always affable with men, and sometimes gracious, always courteous with women, and some times gallant, carefully avoiding brusqueness, ostentation, and sarcasms, never allowing himself to use an offensive word, never making people feel their inferiority and dependence, but, on the contrary, encouraging them to express opinions, and even to converse, tolerating in conversation a semblance of equality, smiling at a repartee, playfully telling a story such was his drawing-room constitution.

'I don't care, I shall! he said. Oswald overlooked the mutiny and did not say who was leader. He just said 'Well don't be all day about it, for he is a kind-hearted boy and can make allowances. So Denny took off his boots and went into the pool. 'Oh, it's ripping! he said. 'You ought to come in. 'It looks beastly muddy, said his tolerating leader.

Can you conceive that gentle Lord of ours tolerating all this for one instant! I cannot answer you now; though I am convinced there is an answer. But is it conceivable that He who said, 'Resist not evil, that He who Himself was dumb before his murderers " Dom Adrian rose too. An extraordinary intensity came into his eyes, and his face grew paler still.
