Why, my liefest and dearest lord, you, a young and handsome fellow, with high birth, a title, and the name of an estate, so well received by the king at your first starting, as makes your further progress scarce matter of doubt, if you know how to improve it for the king has already said you are a 'braw lad, and well studied in the more humane letters' you, too, whom all the women, and the very marked beauties of the Court, desire to see, because you came from Leyden, were born in Scotland, and have gained a hard-contested suit in England you, I say, with a person like a prince, an eye of fire, and a wit as quick, to think of throwing your cards on the table when the game is in your very hand, running back to the frozen north, and marrying let me see a tall, stalking, blue-eyed, fair-skinned bony wench, with eighteen quarters in her scutcheon, a sort of Lot's wife, newly descended from her pedestal, and with her to shut yourself up in your tapestried chamber!
"A true German of the old type; blond and blue-eyed, tall and strong. My hero in good truth brave and loyal, tender and true," was the enthusiastic answer. "I hate fair men," pouted Amy, under her breath, as the major asked some question about hotels.
Poor blue-eyed tot, she had expected at least a few twirls about the room, a few bounds and hand kisses; and here I was "'having" just like any one. So all my mistaken vexation gone, I'll try to make plain our social condition behind the scenes. In the first place, then, a theatrical company is almost exactly like one large family.
If he were an Anglo-Saxon, a blue-eyed Miguk sarem English teacher, spending 6 months in the host country without learning much of anything about the Korean language, it wouldn't have been even a minor offense. To most he was a retarded Hanguk sarem. He chuckled and then smiled at the faces he took in. He waited at a red light with other pedestrians. He sifted out bodies and faces.
Palma's vision, he heard every syllable of the sweet mellow English words of Kücken's "Schlummerlied," with its soothing refrain: "Oh, hush thee now, in slumber mild, While watch I keep, oh sleep, my child." She sang it with strange pathos, thinking of her own far distant mother, whom fate had denied the privilege of chanting lullabies over her lonely blue-eyed child.
The fair-haired and blue-eyed natives of Matagalpa and Segovia are probably the descendants of the outlaws who made these provinces their highway from one ocean to another. Jinotega is pleasantly situated, and has many advantages over other Nicaraguan towns. The climate is temperate and moderately dry, the land very fertile. Pine trees on the surrounding ranges furnish fuel and light.
With but three of the passengers in that train has this tale especially to do, and they were all in the new and comfortable Pullman "City of Cheyenne." One was a tall, well-made man of about thirty blond, blue-eyed, bearded, straight, sinewy, alert.
"My guests," interrupted the landlord and postmaster, "and you will know how to excuse me if " "If you wish us to the devil," returned the blue-eyed stranger, laughing merrily.
I have one sitting by me just now fair-faced, blue-eyed, dark-haired, sweet eighteen she little thinks the devil is so near her!" and a great deal more in the same silly, post-Byronic strain. In his postscript Branwell says: "Of course you won't show this letter", and of course John Brown showed it all round.
"Now start over again, Freddie," the teacher told the little blue-eyed chap, and once more he walked out and pretended to look for Mary. Then Flossie walked out, and this time the play went off very well. Mother Goose came on when it was her turn and she helped Boy Blue and Miss Muffet look for Mary and the lost horn.
