Even under a blow such as this Mrs Ingleton belied her age by a decade. She was still on the sunny side of forty. You and I might have doubted if she was yet thirty. Captain Curtice and his wife had the true kindness to attempt no words as they sympathisingly bade their visitors farewell.
In nothing is the essential sweetness of Cooper's nature more clearly shown than in the intense affection he inspired in the immediate circle which surrounded him or that was dependent upon him. He could not fail to feel keenly at times how utterly his character and motives were misapprehended and belied.
The groundless charge of Popery, though belied by his whole life and conduct, was continually urged against the prisoner; and every error rendered unpardonable by this imputation, which was supposed to imply the height of all enormities. We shall not enter into a detail of this matter, which at present seems to admit of little controversy.
"Why," replied the other, gravely, "there's no use in denyin' it, you know; it's a matther that tells for itself, an' that a poor girl with eyes in her head can judge of as a rich one at any rate, if you're not handsome, you're greatly belied; an' every one knows that there's never smoke without fire."
I hope in that particular, at least, if in no other, to support their traditions, replied Rallywood, with an air of cool and serene indifference said to be impossible to any but men of his race.

Of course Kate could not hear so far, but it gave her satisfaction to say it. The final word was unpremeditated.
"There are no better behaved gentlemen on board. Allow me to help you to soup. Rogers, you take care of Monsieur de Querkerie; Thompson, see to Don Bruno." This was a necessary caution, for the monkey gave signs that he was about to thrust his paw into Pigeon's plate, which act would have belied the assertion just made in his favour, and would certainly not have been pleasant to the human guest.
They certainly were a wild-looking lot, but their appearance somewhat belied their dispositions at least as far as I was personally concerned. We had always got along very well together both socially and in business, and I was well aware that whilst they disliked and mistrusted Krause they placed implicit confidence in me.
His jovial face, however, belied the threat, so it did not occasion me any alarm; and, bowing again politely to the three clerical gentlemen collectively, I bent my steps, on the grin all the way, to the door of the wardroom, which was opened and shut behind me by a marine standing without.
Triumph at any price is sweet to men and women especially the latter. It was her first and last opportunity of repaying him for the cruel contumely which she had borne at his hands so docilely. "Yes," she answered; and there was that in her subtly compounded nature which made her feel a thrill of pride as she did so. Yet the moment after she had so mightily belied her character she half repented.
