Sentences with LABOURING (5)

Farr less abhorrd then these Vex’d _Scylla_ bathing in the Sea that parts _Calabria_ from the hoarce _Trinacrian_ shore: Nor uglier follow the Night-Hag, when call’d In secret, riding through the Air she comes Lur’d with the smell of infant blood, to dance With _Lapland_ Witches, while the labouring Moon Eclipses at thir charms.
Paradise Lost John Milton 1991
All the night he had been feeling that the neglect he was labouring to repair was abnormal and isolated—the only instance of the kind within the circuit of the county.
Far from the Madding Crowd Thomas Hardy 1992
Children, too young to comprehend wherefore this woman should be shut out from the sphere of human charities, would creep nigh enough to behold her plying her needle at the cottage-window, or standing in the doorway, or labouring in her little garden, or coming forth along the pathway that led townward, and, discerning the scarlet letter on her breast, would scamper off with a strange contagious fear.
The Scarlet Letter Nathaniel Hawthorne 1992

Paradise Regained John Milton 1993

Edward Gorey Floating Worlds: The Letters of Edward Gorey & Peter F. Neumeyer
Daughter! Get you an honest Man for a Husband, and keep him honest. No matter whether he is rich, provided he be independent. Regard the Honour and moral Character of the Man more than all other Circumstances. Think of no other Greatness but that of the soul, no other Riches but those of the Heart. An honest, Sensible humane Man, above all the Littlenesses of Vanity, and Extravagances of Imagination, labouring to do good rather than be rich, to be usefull rather than make a s…
John Adams Letters of John Adams, Addressed to His Wife
What would yield the greater benefit to mankind: if I spent the afternoon taking stock in my dispensary, or if I went to the beach and took off my clothes and lay in my underpants absorbing the benign spring sun, watching the children frolic in the water, later buying an ice-cream from the kiosk on the parking lot, if the kiosk is still there? What did Noël ultimately achieve labouring at his desk to balance the bodies out against the bodies in? Would he not be better off tak…
