The General's fingers trembled as he lifted the medal from its case and walked forward to pin it on me. Instead of wearing the usual "helpless" shirt, I had been put into some of the afore-mentioned Paris frillies for the great occasion, and suddenly I saw two long skewer-like prongs, like foreign medals always have, bearing slowly down upon me!
Really, child, I could spend three months in the Engadine for the price of one decent month at Newport; the parasols, gloves, fans, shoes, 'frillies' enough to stock the Rue de la Paix, to say nothing of gowns but why do I run on?
A woman's voice behind the dingy curtain. Listen: the man. No: she wouldn't like that much. Got her it once. He read the other title: Sweets of Sin. More in her line. Let us see. He read where his finger opened. All the dollarbills her husband gave her were spent in the stores on wondrous gowns and costliest frillies. For him! For raoul! Yes. This. Here. Try.
I thought I knew the last thing there was to learn about clothes, but I wouldn't be above going in for a course of too-ition from the woman who fixed those frills! This is going to be an historic occasion for you, my friend. Your sinful nature is kinder dead to the joys of frillies, but there's going to be a big awakening!

Anyway, Lady Doraine and that horrid Smith creature made a place for me in the empty hammock between them, and, as I knew my "frillies" were all right, I hammocked too, and it was lovely. Lord Valmond and Mr. Wertz were lying near, and they said agreeable things, at least I suppose so, because both of them Lady Doraine and Mrs. Smith looked purry-purry-puss-puss.
Up the quay went Lionelleopold, naughty Henry with letter for Mady, with sweets of sin with frillies for Raoul with met him pike hoses went Poldy on. Tap blind walked tapping by the tap the curbstone tapping, tap by tap. Cowley, he stuns himself with it: kind of drunkenness. Better give way only half way the way of a man with a maid. Instance enthusiasts. All ears. Not lose a demisemiquaver.
