On the contrary they seem to have a fish-like dependency of gaze on what is without, and show fishy depths, if any. For instance, my eyes are rather prominent, and I am just the little fool but the French lady is my theme. Madame la Marquise, your eyes are sweeter to me than celestial. I never saw such candour and unaffected innocence in eyes before. Accept the compliment of the pauvre Anglaise.
"My dear friend," said the Princess de Condé to Madame de Brienne, who was with her during her last moments, "tell that 'pauvre miserable' who is now at Stenay the condition in which you have seen me, that she may learn how to die." During the whole of this period, the Duke de la Rochefoucauld gave constant proof of a rare fidelity. M. Cousin speaks very precisely on this head.
We asked for a cup of water to drink with it, "But Messieurs will not drink water!" he cried, and rushed in his generosity for his poor bottle of wine. My French-Canadian countrymen, that was a trait of yours! I remember too, when my shoe hurt me and I limped badly one evening along the Avenue of the Bois, the numbers of men and women who said to one another: "O, le pauvre jeune homme."
"Oh, that is it," she said as she ate, "but Bonnechose says, cette pauvre Runtze has had her own romance and her own unhappy love-affair." The corners of the housekeeper's mouth were drawn down still lower and more tartly. "In our station all sorts of things can happen: we love for a while and then again we don't and are at peace.

Smiley gagnait toujours avec cette bete-la; malheureusement ils ont fini par dresser un chien qui n'avait pas de pattes de derriere, parce qu'on les avait sciees, et quand les choses furent au point qu'il voulait, et qu'il en vint a se jeter sur son morceau favori, le pauvre chien comprit en un instant qu'on s'etait moque de lui, et que l'autre le tenait.
On the south bank stood the church and monastery of St. Julien le Pauvre. A new Frankish city was growing on the north bank, bounded on the west by the abbey of St. Vincent le Rond, and on the east by the abbey of St. Lawrence. Houses clustered around the four great monasteries, and suburbs were in course of formation.
"The work is combined in that study," said the chaplain. "Stalky does the mathematics, McTurk the Latin, and Beetle attends to their English and French. At least, when he was in the sick-house last month " "Malingering," Prout interjected. "Quite possibly. I found a very distinct falling off in their 'Roman d'un Jeune Homme Pauvre' translations." "I think it is profoundly immoral," said Prout.

Et, ne pouvant demeurer en tel lieu, emmenerent la pauvre femme avecq eulx droict a la Rochelle, ou, apres un navigage, ilz arriverent. Et quand ilz eurent faict entendre aux habitans la fidelite et perseverance de ceste femme, elle fut receue a grand honneur de toutes les Dames, qui voluntiers luy baillerent leurs filles pour aprendre a lire et a escripre.
