| For me pis de terre, ever since I heard of it, has offered special attractions. |
| Often a rook will make for a rather distant plantation, with a nearer shelter of an inferior kind in view as a pis aller. |
| In pis you can make your foundations, so to speak, as you go, through the simple process of ramming. |
| But don't you see, if it is said that she was obliged to leave Milan, it puts us in the position of a pis aller! |
| Truly, tant pis is one of those sayings that must have really meant something in old French but that's really hard to translate in modern French. |
| Those who have ever lived where such temperatures prevail will note the immense advantage gained by the pis walls. |
