Indeed that sagacity is so remarkable, that it may naturally occur to the learned reader to inquire, whether Machiavelli's "Prince" had yet been published, and whether King Ferdinand could have read that much-abused manual of crafty statesmen.
At length he said: "Shorty, I believe that wagon's loaded with hard tack." "It's certainly a Commissary wagon," said Shorty, after studying it a little. "Yes, I'm sure that it's one o' them wagons we was guardin', and I recollect it was loaded with hard tack." The mere mention of the much-abused crackers made both their mouths water. "Seems to me I recognize the wagon, too," said Shorty.
"Good," said I, "you can't give an author a better reason for coming to see him than being pleased with his book. I assure you that you are most welcome." After a little general discourse I said that I presumed he was in the law. "Yes," said he, "I am a member of that much-abused profession."
One of his theories was that every man in the world has a grievance and regards himself as much-abused, and in order to win the regard and confidence of that man, all one has to do is feel around for the grievance and then play upon it. Mr. Pike, in his province of employer, had been compelled to study the methods of successful labor-union agitators.
Sprenger, in Germany, and Bodinus and Delrio, in France, have left but too ample a record of the atrocities committed in the much-abused names of justice and religion. Bodinus, of great repute and authority in the seventeenth century, says, "The trial of this offence must not be conducted like other crimes.

Juana, self-willed as she had shown herself to be, was not a woman of strong character or any great ability, and her husband had so regularly controlled her and bent her to his will that he found little trouble in the present instance in deposing her entirely, that he might rule Castile in her stead.
Has he heaped upon her abuse and called her "donkey" and "buffalo"? She has repaid the insult by a loving devotion to her lord, such as has conquered his pride. Whether it be as wife or mother, the women of no other land wield greater power than the much-abused women of India.
Barker, and, with an indifferent and graceful gesture towards the door, said, as she leaned against the mantel, "Go, then, and see this much-abused gentleman, and then go together with him and make peace with your husband even on those terms. If I have saved you from the consequences of your folly I shall be willing to bear even HIS blame." "Whatever I do," said Mrs.
Can you doubt me longer now?" and he glanced round indignantly, and acted his part so well that he almost persuaded himself that he was a much-abused and persecuted person. "Did no one witness the struggle, Sir Henry?" asked the sceptical Stanley. "Was there not one during all that time passed by?" "In faith, Sir Thomas, I know not," he replied. "I found no time to look.
As a rule the girl who is prononcée in a public conveyance is not well-bred, and she who laughs loudly and talks noisily, meanwhile passing comments on those persons who are so unfortunate as to be her traveling companions, has no claim to the much-abused title of "lady." But you can hardly compare your manners and those of your friends with the deportment of low-born, ill-bred girls.
