There was that between Monsieur Doltaire and myself a matter I shall come to by-and-bye which well might make me apprehensive. "My sketch and my gossip with my friends," said I, "can have little interest in France." "My faith, the Grande Marquise will find a relish for them," he said pointedly at me.

That is beyond my assistance. And, what can you do?" "I must go to my uncle Bálnokházy at once and ask him to interfere." "That's surely a wise thing to do. Under those circumstances I shall go with you. Not because I think you would be afraid to go by yourself at night, but that I may be able to tell the old man by-and-bye that you were not in mischief."

Poets, much my superiors, have so flattered those who possessed the adventitious qualities of wealth and power, that I am determined to flatter no created being, either in prose or verse. I set as little by princes, lords, clergy, critics, etc., as, all these respective gentry do by my bardship. I know what I may expect from the world, by-and-bye illiberal abuse, and perhaps contemptuous neglect.

Will must once more go where he pleased, and taste the briny ocean in salt spray on his lips. Confinement would kill a roving spirit like his. He would be sorry to have lost her Bet; but by-and-bye he would find another lass to comfort him. Just at present Bet had a sense of exaltation that caused her scarcely to feel any pain.

By-and-bye he condescends to come down, and they then follow him to his den, which is marked by a rope made of red bark being hung over the doorway, so as to prevent any person from ignorantly violating its precincts.

'Tell your sovereign master, Sir, said Edith, 'that I will take leave to speak to him on this subject by-and-bye, and that I will speak to him alone. 'Mr Carker, Madam, said her husband, 'being in possession of the reason which obliges me to refuse you that privilege, shall be absolved from the delivery of any such message. He saw her eyes move, while he spoke, and followed them with his own.

"My set is not the same as yours; my people can never belong to yours my dear old mother is a lady at heart, but she has not the outward polish of your mother. You want me to be your wife now, but by-and-bye you will remember the gulf which socially lies between us." "How can you talk such nonsense? You are one of nature's ladies. Ask my mother what she thinks of you. Ask Catherine.

"At once. Will you come?" "Not now. I'll gallop over by-and-bye. You are going to the edge of the Kerselec forest?" "Yes; you will hear us calling. Are you coming, Max Fortin? And you, Le Bihan? Good; take the dog-cart."

It may be as well that you do not know any of our relations, whom I have made to suppose, that you are still abroad and it would be awkward, when you take your right name by-and-bye. Do you mean to see your mother?" "Impossible, my lord, at present; by-and-bye I hope to be able." "Perhaps it's all for the best.

"I say it's Prince Albert as ought to be asked how he'd like his missis to be from home when he comes in, tired and worn, and wanting some one to cheer him; and maybe, her to come in by-and-bye, just as tired and down in th' mouth; and how he'd like for her never to be at home to see to th' cleaning of his house, or to keep a bright fire in his grate.
