I speak of matters before it occurred to all Charing-Cross and Cheapside to "take the water" between Dover and Calais, and inundate the world with the wit of the Cider Cellar, and the Hole in the Wall. No!
Torrents of ducats inundate your treasury, and yet yet it's enough to drive one mad! in spite of this and the lamentable parsimony with which the Emperor deprives himself of both great and small pleasures it is simply absurd! the story is always: The finances are at the lowest ebb save and save again.
Surely, love itself, the seeds of which lie dormant in every heart, love like a marvellous tide of white clover, was finding its chance at last, and would presently inundate her heart. Then, unharassed, undelayed by vain words and futile appeals from without all would go well.
Captain," I said to myself, "what joys are hidden beneath these alarms, for she loves you.

Suddenly Isaacson breathed quietly. He unclenched his hands. A wave it was like that a wave of strong self-possession seemed to inundate him. Now, in the darkness on the bank, a great doctor stood. And this doctor had nothing to do with the far-off lights by Edfou. His mission lay elsewhere. "Go forth go forth from this world!"
But the metal gates withstood the shock, though buried from our sight in the seething white mass, and the baffled waters instantly swirled around in ten thousand gigantic eddies, rising to the level of our window and beginning to inundate the power house before we fairly comprehended our peril. "We have done the work," said Mr. Edison, smiling grimly.
