That which he had called cubical I had never had much doubt of; sure enough, it was a little Bible, to carry in a plaid-neuk. It restores speech to those that have the dumb palsey.

"I'm not so unkind as I seem, boy; but it is better for you, and for all, that you should not come to this house again, better that you had not come into the town." "Fie, Mother!" said Dick, seeing that Leonard, bending his head, silently walked from the room. "You should be prouder of your grandson than you are of me." "Prouder of him who may shame us all yet?" "What do you mean?" But Mrs.

"Not'ing," replied the girl in English, "but she trust Pedro." "So do I, with all my heart," returned Lawrence; "my question was prompted by curiosity, not by doubt." "I's not so sure," said Quashy, with a frown, and a tone of self-assertion which was rare in him. "Nice-lookin' men like him's not allers as nice as dey looks." "Fie, Quashy!

I was sorry to have displeased the two fair masquers, who seemed worth knowing, so I followed them, and meeting Barbaro, who knew everybody, I pointed them out to him, and heard to my delight that they were the two Marchionesses Q and F .

I didn't try no further, because, in the first place, the tide was rising, and because, when I pulled myself out, I heard a sound on t'other side of the pool like as if some creature was breathin' hard there in the darkness. It properly raised my hair, and I turned tail." "Fie, Jan! Ran away from a mermaid!" said Vashti, laughing. "You should have brought her home and married her."

Why, an old Knight, and Alderman here o'th' City, Sir Feeble Fainwou'd, a jolly old Fellow, whose Activity is all got into his Tongue, a very excellent Teazer; but neither Youth nor Beauty can grind his Dudgeon to an Edge. Bel. Fie, what Stuff's here! Gay. Very excellent Stuff, if you have but the Grace to improve it. Bel.

Fie on ye! man, fie! you have not once gone to see the Provost or his daughter since I saw you last I dare not go myself for the sake of a very stupid blunder; but I met the old man coming up the way an hour ago, and he was asking what ailed you at them. Will I tell you something, Colin? The Provost's a gleg man, but he's not so gleg as his wife.

'Stop! that is my betrothal pledge you can't have that! cried Raymond, putting up his hand to withhold the dwarf's claw. 'And who was it gave it to you, in the first place, I should like to know? exclaimed the dwarf tartly. 'Fie! have you so little confidence in your friends? It is for your own good that I must have the token. Give it me at once.
