MacWheep at once sits down with the air of one taken red-handed in arson, and the court debates the point till every authority has taken his fill, when the clerk submits to the moderator, with a fine blend of deference and infallibility, that Mr.
When attacked by either men or fierce animals, it tries to escape by flight, and if that fails, submits to be killed; but there is no "light" to be got out of a tapir. The tapir leads a very solitary life, being met with alone, or sometimes in the company of the female.
The Italian shrugs his shoulders and submits in a humorous way to what is simply a bit of domestic discipline, revenges himself by a jest on the priesthood, and waits with his quiet "pazienza" till the progress of education shall have secured him a wife who won't grudge him his dinner. But Lent is no reality to him, and spring is a very real thing indeed.
She had been nearly successful, so nearly that at moments she had felt sure of success. But the prize had slipped from her through her own fault. She knew well enough that it was her own fault.

"For this partition, which England submits to, could I not represent the second party as well as the Dutch?" "We have Mademoiselle de Keroualle to treat that question," replied Madame.
The extraordinary revelations of some Power outside ourselves leading and guiding and helping and chastening are, I am certain, really the ordinary experiences of every man who is willing to accept the fact that we are sons of God. Only a child, however, who submits to his father can expect to enjoy or understand his dealings.
One thing after another the obstacles created by the laws, the sentiments and natural defences of women all engender a mutuality of sensations which deceives superficial persons as to their future relations in marriage, where obstacles no longer exist, where the wife submits to love instead of permitting it, and frequently repulses pleasure instead of desiring it.
