The will in which he surprised so many persons by remembering them "one of the only purely beautiful wills I have ever read," said a lawyer, showed how much he cared at heart for many of us to whom he had rarely made express professions of affection. Good-by, then, old friend. We shall nevermore meet the upright figure, the blue eye, the hearty laugh, upon these Cambridge streets.
Willingly now would the Freiherr give his dearest possessions to save his daughter, but already she was beyond assistance, her only hope the peace of the grave. I am dying, sister, she said to her attendant. Nevermore shall I see my dear Gerbert ah! nevermore. Hush, murmured the nun gently, stranger things have happened.
An old sad song of Ringan's was in my ears, something about an exile who cried out in France for the red heather and the salt winds of the Isles. "Nevermore the deep fern," it ran, "or the bell of the dun deer, far my castle is wind-blown sands, and my homelands are a stranger's."
He had some sort of fancy about their eyes which I could never quite understand. He said that a woman who had been very close to a man, who had been part of him in any way, had nevermore the same look, and that the difference was perceptible to one who knew the thing. I tested him more than once, and I found that he had never actually failed.
Another pictured the irregular marriages made in public-houses in the days when the island had three breweries and thirty drinking shops to every thousand of its inhabitants. The publican laid two sticks crosswise on the floor, and said to the bride and bridegroom "Hop over the sticks and lie crossed on the floor, And you're man and wife for nevermore."
"No," replied Eugene, sadly, "for I am too truly your friend to deceive you, Max. I have loved, but my love was unfortunate; and the wound it has made in my heart is too painful to be probed. Dear friend, let us speak of it nevermore!" "On the contrary, let us speak of it together without reserve.
I have had plenty of warnings from great statesmen in France, Germany, and other nations that I ought to give them up nevermore. Yet you know how frankly and sincerely I acquitted myself in that matter without ever making pretensions upon your state than the pretensions I still make to your friendship and co-operation."
Bonaparte and Talleyrand intended nevermore to, release their royal captive when once in their power; but, after forcing him to resign the throne to his son, keep him a prisoner for the remainder of his days, which they would have taken care should not have been long. The Duke of Sudermania was to have been nominated a regent until the majority of the young King, not yet six years of age.
"Mother " he said softly, pleadingly, "Wake up! I want you to wake up." The weeping nurse placed her arm around him and knelt beside the bed. "She will never wake up again here on earth, Eddie darling. Never nevermore. She has gone to live with the angels where you will be with her some day, but never nevermore on earth."
When now she would forego her hate of Gunther, so that he might kiss her, it had befitted him better had she not been wronged by his advice; then might he have gone boldly unto Kriemhild. Nevermore was peace between kindred brought to pass with so many tears; her loss still gave her woe. All, save the one man alone, she pardoned. None had slain him, had not Hagen done the deed.
