Nothing more needed to be said by him, if that. True, he has a temper. It is owned that he is a hero. We take him with his qualities, impetuosity being one, and not unsuited to his arm of the service, as be has shown. If his temper is high, it is an element of a character proved heroical.
There was, in plain palpable fact, something about the Queen, her history, her policy, the times, the glorious part which England, and she as the incarnation of the then English spirit, were playing upon earth, which raised imaginative and heroical souls into a permanent exaltation a 'fairyland, as they called it themselves, which seems to us fantastic, and would be fantastic in us, because we are not at their work, or in their days.
That reasonable indulgence shall never be abused; our Catholic emancipation of moustache and imperial, whisker and the rest, shall not be a pretence for lion's manes, or the fringe of goats and monkeys: we would not so far follow unsophisticated nature as to relapse into barbarous wild men; but diligently squaring, pointing, combing, and perfuming those natural manly decorations, after the most approved modes of Raleigh, Walsingham, and Shakspeare, and heroical Edward the Black Prince, and venerable apostolic Bede, we will encroach little further than to discard our comfortless starched collars and strangling stocks, to adopt once more in lieu thereof open necks and vandyke borders.
I have full oft In singers' selves found me a theme of song, Holding these also to be very part Of Nature's greatness, and accounting not Their descants least heroical of deeds.
It happened as Jim said; he was made a sergeant at once Sally managed that; for, when it came to the point, she saw the conditions in which the privates lived, and realized that Jim must be one of them, and clean out the stables, and groom his horse and the officers' horses, and fetch and carry, her heart failed her, and she thought that she was making her remedy needlessly heroical.
"Madam, since when has the gallant Major superseded Mr. Robbie as your family adviser?" "H'mph!" said Miss Gilchrist; which in itself was not reassuring. But she turned to the lawyer. "My dear lady," he answered her look, "this very imprudent young man seems to have burnt his boats, and no doubt recks very little if, in that heroical conflagration, he burns our fingers.
To use too many circumstances, ere one come to the matter, is wearisome; to use none at all, is blunt. Of Plantations PLANTATIONS are amongst ancient, primitive, and heroical works. When the world was young, it begat more children; but now it is old, it begets fewer: for I may justly account new plantations, to be the children of former kingdoms.
"A little dust here and there perhaps, Madame," he said, with humble courtesy. Madelinette was not so heroical as to undervalue the suggestion. Lives perhaps were in the balance, but she was a woman, and who could tell what slight influences might turn the scale! The servant saw her hesitation. "If Madame will but remain here, I will bring what is necessary," he said, and was gone.
But he had done that for her that which, she knew not why, but she knew he would do for no other woman. The Splendour of it would be her everlasting possession. She undressed that night, proud, dry-eyed, heroical, and went to bed, and listened to the rhythmic tramp of the sentry across the gateway below her window, and suddenly a lump rose in her throat and she fell to crying miserably.
These songs will be sung at the dinners which will be given. Get three kinds of songs made, so that the soldier may not hear the same sung twice." It was not without secret emotion and an inquietude which showed itself by numerous heroical declamations, that the Emperor Napoleon himself passed into Spain with his old troops, which had gained for him the sovereign rule in Europe.
