Many of the guests who chanced to get access to them from a mere glimpse of the Queen whose general good-humour, vivacity, and constant wish to please all around her would often make her commit herself unconsciously and unintentionally would fabricate anecdotes of things they had neither seen nor heard; and which never had existence, except in their own wicked imaginations.
Listen, then! You do not know all! When you thought I was only helping you to fabricate your claim to the Arguellos' name, I was finding out WHO YOU REALLY WERE! Ah!

James had left any thing but a godly savour behind him; and he was about to fabricate a tolerably bold assertion to the contrary, rather than incur the risk of offending the lord of the manor, when, luckily, a change in the state of the fog afforded him a favourable opportunity of bringing about an apposite change in the subject.
A youth who can fabricate a falsehood so unblushingly as John did this is a candidate for ruin. The reader will not be surprised to learn, before the whole story is told, that he became a miserable, wicked man.
