Pagina 336 - ... suffering. She put her hand upon that part of his linen, where the blood-stain was the widest, and in the act, she thought she felt a gaping wound. He shrunk under the touch, and convulsively opened his eyes. They were shut as suddenly, and in a low voice, he hardly articulated — . « Where am I ?" " In a wretched place," replied Cornelia, " but with those who only wait the morning light to bear you to one of comfort.
Pagina 368 - I mean to speak of one," returned the Pastor, " whose heart was lifted up because of his beauty; and he corrupted his wisdom, by reason of his brightness ; find where we should have found light, there was darkness, and the mouth of the grave J " Cornelia sunk into a seat.
Pagina 258 - Yes, my father," gently rejoined Louis, " there is rest in the grave when— " Silence !" interrupted the Duke, all his former haughtiness confirming his voice and manner: " Is it you that would cajole reason with sophistry ? That would give up your unsullied truth at last, to insult your father by preaching an annihilation you know to be a falsehood ? I know a different lesson. A man cannot rid himself of bodily pangs by moving from place to place. How then shall the torments of the spirit be extinguished,...
Pagina 337 - She clasped her hands, in the wordless sympathy of human nature. She was then brought through the horrors of the still raging tempest,* at that dismal hour of night, to this lonely hovel, to close the eyes of a forlorn stranger ! — To perform the last offices to the beloved son or husband of some tender mother or doating wife, who must " long look for him who never would return...
Pagina 337 - Louis !" cried she, in the piteous accents of one calling for an assistance they needed, but despaired of iis bringing help. Louis heard the cry, and the tone struck him with an alarm, that instantly brought him into the hovel. Lorenzo followed his master, and both rushed through the chamber in which she was not to be found, into the one whence the light gleamed.
