On another occasion Gordon wrote, "It is a delightful thing to be a fatalist" meaning, commented Burton, "that the Divine direction and pre-ordination of all things saved him so much trouble of forethought and afterthought. In this tenet he was not only a Calvinist but also a Moslem." Jane Digby the Second.
Their resulting usufruct of the community's productive efforts rests on a vested interest of a pecuniary sort, sanctioned by the sacred rights of property; very much as the analogous German dynastic and aristocratic usufruct rests on personal prerogative, sanctioned by the sacred rights of authentic prescription, without afterthought.
In a corner, with an even greater air of being an afterthought than the bed, there's a very tiny washstand, and pinned on the wall behind it over the part of the wallpaper I might splash on Sunday mornings when I'm supposed really to wash, is a strip of grey linen with a motto worked on it in blue wool: Eigener Heerd Ist Goldes Werth
We'll show this street that even Christine Lorenz can be outdone." And, as an afterthought: "I hope Max Wilson will settle down now. He's been none too steady." K. had taken Christine to see Tillie that Sunday afternoon. Palmer had the car out had, indeed, not been home since the morning of the previous day.
"That is utterly absurd!" he answered. "No swimmer that ever lived could have got to her, nor any boat either! There was a terrific surf on the bar." "Of course not," assented Maddalena. "But you saw the ship, too?" "Yes. Aurora was looking at her when I reached the gap. That is why I noticed the vessel," Corbario added, as if by an afterthought.
Then the door of the next cell was opened, and a man said, "Come out. It is time." "It is time and I am ready," answered the thin voice. "Good-bye, friends, God be with you." "Good-bye, lady," answered Martin; "may you soon be with God." Then he added, by an afterthought, "What is your name? I should like to know."

We could cross them from the south, attack our balloon, and then, if we wished, return to French territory on the west side of the salient. "We may miss some heavy shelling.
I cannot get the empty cases out. But perhaps they may have seen or heard them. Old Edward is sure to be watching for me. You had better throw the rest into the sea if you can manage it," she added by way of an afterthought; "we may have to swim presently." To Geoffrey this seemed very probable, and whenever he got a chance he acted on the hint till at length he was rid of all his cartridges.
Tossing him the hat, Nat turned contemptuously. "Come in again, any time you want to apologise," he shouted over his shoulder, as an afterthought. He paused in the middle of the store and felt of his necktie. It proved to be a little out of place, but otherwise he was as immaculate as was his wont. He reviewed the encounter and laughed quietly. "There's no cure for a fool," he mused....
"They know a fine man when they see one, as well as my lady," he said. Then he added, as if by an afterthought, lowering his voice a little: "By the way, Mr. Lightmark, there was a young lady a young person here yesterday making inquiries." Lightmark bent down, frowning a little at a fly which had entangled itself on his palette. "Yes?" he remarked tentatively, when the offender had been removed.
