57. 10. A tous les soins f * to ail the onerous duties.' 57. II. jDu respect humain^ * fear of man.'

57. 15. De la sorte t * thus, in that way.' In the three expressions, de la sorte, à Pinstant, pour le coup, the article has the force of the Latin ille, from which it is derived.

57. 21. Que pour satisfaire à ce qu'il doit, *only to fulfil his duty.* Satisfaire is neuter only in the sensé of fulfilling, discharging a duty. Otherwise it is always active. It was not so in the seventeenth century, when satisfaire à was used when Modem French would now use satisfaire actively. As : — ' C'est maintenant à toi que je viens satisfaire.* {Corneille.) * Tout ce qui nous environne nous presse de satisfaire à nos désirs.* {Bossuet.^ In the works of his old âge, however, Bossuet uses satisfaire actively.
