An old gentleman who had been prodding him in the back for some moments here thrust him away, and, what was worse, addressed him as his good woman, which angered Toad more than anything that had occurred that evening. Baffled and full of despair, he wandered blindly down the platform where the train was standing, and tears trickled down each side of his nose.

Even so has Agamemnon angered me. And yet so be it, for it is over; I will force my soul into subjection as I needs must; I will go; I will pursue Hector who has slain him whom I loved so dearly, and will then abide my doom when it may please Jove and the other gods to send it.

Beneath the chandelier stood Mr. Smitz and the four personages who had sat before the cabinet and had views on the Boer War. "What an awful, sacrilegious thing you have done," exclaimed Mr. Smitz. "You have struck the dead." "He hit me first." "Your remarks about the Irish angered him. He could not restrain himself." "Well, he couldn't whip me.

They shook out their revolvers, sending a rattling volley up into the air. Tad Butler had scored first. His opponent was angered almost beyond control.

When Vane was trying to repel Sally's embarrassing caresses a coach stopped on the western side of the Park at the point nearest to Rosamond's Pond.

The very use of sporting terminology in politics angered him. In his mind the case was docketed not as Thatcher versus Bassett, but as Thatcher and Bassett versus the People. It all came to that. And why should not the People the poor, meek, long-suffering People, the "pee-pul" of familiar derision sometimes win?

This officer, the sheriff, was connected with the family into which I had married in Worthington, and with him came two or three more relatives, all bound, as they boasted, to "put me through." They were excessively irate against me and very much angered, especially that their race after me to Hancock had been fruitless. I had fallen into the worst possible hands.
