I dare say the sight of you will appease the bees and restore her to sanity." "I will if I possibly can," returned Philippa doubtfully. "But you know, I do not like to go very far in case Francis might ask for me. Could you not come and see me?" Isabella hesitated. "I do not think I will come to Bessacre unless you really want me for anything particular, I mean.
There was that in her eye which, if suddenly surprised, indicated satire; there was that in her demeanour which hinted depths which might or might not be soothing. To be candid, what we do not understand is feared rather than loved. And it is to the author of "Evelina" I owe this conviction. Peace be with her manes when what I have so doubtfully written shall be read! Elizabeth Bennet Mrs. Darcy
Whether in street or suburb, Leamington may fairly be called beautiful, and, at some points, magnificent; but by and by you become doubtfully suspicious of a somewhat unreal finery: it is pretentious, though not glaringly so; it has been built with malice aforethought, as a place of gentility and enjoyment.
"Well, sir," said the woman doubtfully, "they'll tell you there if Mr. Edward is to be seen; but I don't advise it" "That's all right!" I cried, and proceeded in the direction of the doorway. I presently obtained a view of a cozily furnished room, where a white-haired old lady was bustling about engaged in some domestic duties. I paused at the threshold. "My name is Addison," I said.
Don't you see that I must bring you up to it gradually, so that the shock will not be too great?" "But think of the suspense I am in."

Think it over, whether you can say that?" A confused muttering was the forester's only answer; like most blunt people, he repented easily. He turned, exasperated, and started toward the shrubbery. "No, sir," called Frederick, "if you want to follow the other foresters, they've gone up yonder by the beech-tree." "By the beech-tree!" exclaimed Brandes doubtfully.
"You can't sell your share," said Adam, sharply. "You ain't of age." "Maybe I'm not," was the answer; "but all the same you know me. And if I was to make a bargain I'd keep it. You may be sure I'll never come back and bother you." "Yes, I suppose not," said Adam, doubtfully. "But you can't tell " "How much do you expect to git?" asked Dan warily.
I have my own two news-grabbers at hand, and nothing particular for them to do this evening. I'll send them up to the Café Montmartre." "It's awfully good of you, Spencer. I was going myself," Duncombe said, a little doubtfully. "You idiot!" his friend said cheerfully, yet with a certain emphasis.
There is a slight rift in the sky toward the north, and a few bearing stars to guide us over the waste. As we penetrate into shallower water, it is deemed advisable to divide our party into smaller boats, and diverge over the submerged prairie. I borrow a peacoat of one of the crew, and in that practical disguise am doubtfully permitted to pass into one of the boats. We give way northerly.
Burton left his novel at the address which the sub-editor had given him, and went back to his lodgings. He let himself in with a latchkey. The caretaker of the floor bustled up to him as he turned towards the door of his room. "Don't know that I've done right, sir," she remarked, doubtfully.
