LINES FROM THE TEXT:

Aches to construct something ere he die

By love I mean the forgetfulness of self

Cheapness of this verbiage

Delighting in the present moment

Distrust of her own feelings to give way to them completely

"Each of us," he said, "has a shadow in those places."

Fear of meddling too much, of not meddling enough

Governed by ungovernable pride

Habit of thinking for himself

Human heart," he murmured, "is the tomb of many feelings."

I never suspected him of goin' to live

I will not consent to be a drag on anyone

"If I practise hard," he murmured, "I shall master it."

Immoral to hurt anybody but himself.

Little things are all big with the past

Lived in thoughts about events rather than in events themselves

Love for open air and facts

Low opinion of human nature

Man abstracted, faintly contemptuous of other forms of life

One's got to draw the line." "Ah!" said Cecilia; "where?"

Pabulum of varying theories of future life

Pass out of the country of the understanding of the young

People do miss things when they are old!

Perversity which she found so conspicuous in her servants

Placed beyond the realms of want, who speculated in ideas

Primeval love of stalking

She struggled loyally with her emotion

Simple unspiritual natures of delighting in the present moment

That other mistress with whom he spent so many evening hours

The Old--for whom life had lost its complications

The sentiment that men call honour is of doubtful value

They'll soon have no ankles to reveal

Thinker meditating upon action

Ungovernable itch to be appreciated

Unless--unless they closed their ears, and eyes, and noses

Wanted to be loved, slowly killing the power of loving

When alive, have been served with careless parsimony

You must not laugh at life--that is blasphemy

"You're worth more," muttered Hilary, "than I can ever give you."

Young--to whom everything seemed simple

THE PATRICIAN
