Sir George Grove outdoes Liszt in his Schubert worship; and an astonishing genius lately rushed in, as his kind always does, where Sir George would fear to tread, boldly, blatantly asserting that Schubert is "the greatest musical genius that the Western world has yet produced." On the other hand, Mr.
Gourlay raised his in answer to their nod. But the moment after, and in their hearing, he yelled blatantly to Swipey Broon to come on and have a drink of beer. Swipey was a sweep now, for Brown the ragman had added chimney-cleaning to his other occupations plurality of professions, you observe, being one of the features of the life of Barbie.
She had an odd, almost manly, sensation that it was her duty in Africa to stand up for her faith, not blatantly in words to impress others, but perseveringly in heart to satisfy herself. Sometimes she felt very protective.
"There's a thought!" interjected Tutt. "And there wouldn't be any lawyers either!" "As King Hal said: 'The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers," commented Mr. Tutt.

I came, at length, to a long straight avenue of elms that were almost blatantly immemorial. At the end of it was well, I felt like a gnat going to stay in a public building. 'If there had been turnstiles IN and OUT and a shilling to pay, I should have felt easier as I passed into that hall that Palladio-Gargantuan hall.
The idea of the gossip pained, almost shocked him; of the gossip and bitter truths. A liaison would bring forth almost disgusted and wholly ironical laughter at the animal passions of man, as blatantly shown by Nigel. And a marriage? Well, the verdict on that would be, "Cracky!" Isaacson's brain could not dispute the fact that there would be justice in that verdict.
There is not in all England a town so blatantly picturesque as Tilling, nor one, for the lover of level marsh land, of tall reedy dykes, of enormous sunsets and rims of blue sea on the horizon, with so fortunate an environment.
"With pleasure," he said, laughing; "if you'll plead for me with the jury." "Zen here he iss."

"He would be unfaithful to me, ziss one." "I? Never!" denied the accused. He set a kiss in the hollow of the dancer's wrist.
