Sentences with EXIGENT (5)

And then we'd--Oh, no! I'll tell you what we'd do! We'd just sit in a punt and dabble!” “Of course we'll do just what you like,” I said hospitably; but already I was beginning to feel my liberty of action somewhat curtailed by this exigent visitor I had so rashly admitted into my sanctum.
Dream Days Kenneth Grahame 2008

A Book of Remarkable Criminals H. B. Irving 1996
Badgered, not only by her husband but by her own relatives, scared no doubt, certainly unhappy, unable for politic reasons to appeal freely to her beloved Robin, to whom might Frances turn but the helpful Turner?

THE WAY OF A MAID THE lover whose soul shaken is In some decuman billow of bliss, Who feels his gradual-wading feet Sink in some sudden hollow of sweet, And ’mid love’s usèd converse comes Sharp on a mood which all joy sums— An instant’s fine compendium of The liberal-leavèd writ of love; His abashed pulses beating thick At the exigent joy and quick, Is dumbed, by aiming utterance great Up to the miracle of his fate.
New Poems Francis Thompson 2015

Jose Ortega y Gasset
Life itself seemed so alarmingly exigent, to require so much of the self. It was too difficult to remember and think and express and understand - all things I needed to be able to do to talk. To keep my face animated at the same time was insult added to injury. It was like trying to cook and roller-skate and sing and type all at once.
Andrew Solomon The Noonday Demon: An Atlas of Depression
He who had known the ceaseless worship of angels came to be a slave to men. Preaching, teaching, healing the sick, and raising the dead were parts of his ministry, of course, and the parts we might consider ourselves willing to do for God if that is what He asked. He could be seen to be God in those. But Jesus also walked miles in dusty heat. He healed, and people forgot to thank Him. He was pressed and harried by mobs of exigent people, got tired and hungry, was "tailed" and…
