Just at first, I mean; for society's getting so deplorably lax that, little by little, it will edge up to us you'll see! I don't want to idealize the situation, dearest, and I won't conceal from you that in time we shall be called on. But, oh, the fun we shall have had in the interval!
But when Theresa explored the open envelope he had given her for her brother, she found in it a cheque for L50, and a letter which seemed to Maurice's sister unselfish and tender as she was deplorably lacking in the scolding it ought to have contained. If only her father had ever shown the same affection for Stephen!
Learnin' out of a book that is held out to us from the shadows by an onseen, inexorable hand. Settin' on hard benches that may fall out from under us at any time. Poor ignerent creeters that we are, would it not be a too arrant folly for us to judge each other hardly, we, all on us, so deplorably ignerent, so weakly helpless?" Sez Josiah, in earnest axcents, "Le's walk a little faster."
The bed looked as though it had not been made for days; the quilt and valance were deplorably dirty; but the poor creature herself looked neat and clean, and her hair was drawn off from her sunken cheeks and knotted carefully at the back of her head. Mr. Hamilton uttered an exclamation of impatience when he saw the smoke, and almost snatched the poker out of Peggy's hands.
What could be easier for him than to go, as Insie had said to him at least a score of times, and mind his own business, and shake off the dust or the mud of his feet at such strangers? But, alas! he had tried it, and could shake nothing, except his sad and sapient head. How deplorably was he altered from the Pet that used to be!
The legislative conditions were then bad, scandalously bad; nor have I any reason to believe in a regeneration since. The stream will never rise higher than its source; but it generally indicates the level thereof. In this case, I can only hope that in my experience it failed so to do. Running at a low level, the waters of that stream were deplorably dirty.
"Have you studied engineering?" "Yes." "And you could scientifically enumerate the defects in the construction of the fort?" "It would not be very difficult, sir." "It has come to our ears that you consider the fortress weak in several particulars. Have you so stated at any time?" "I told the princess that the fortress is deplorably weak.
There was one exception, however: Ned Stanwell, who was deplorably good-natured, had always lent a patient ear to Caspar, and he now reaped his reward by being taken into Kate's favour. Before she had been a month in the building they were on confidential terms as to Caspar's health, and lately Stanwell had penetrated farther, even to the inmost recesses of her anxiety about her brother's career.
The element of strife had now entered the Supreme Court of God's House, and the downward trend was deplorably rapid. The next vexation was the abolition of "The Act of Classes." The Act of Classes guarded all places of trust in the government and army. None but those who expressed sympathy with the National Covenant were eligible to places of trust.
Schiller began to see that his impatience of stage restrictions and his subjective interest in certain situations had done him an evil turn. He had been deplorably long-winded. And just then came out a caustic review which showed him that he had committed other sins than those of prolixity.
