"Hang it, man! don't be snivelling like a woman!" "Oh, it's not me!" says Sampson, tossing his head. "I am used to it, sir." "Not you! Who, then? Are you crying because somebody else is hurt, pray?" asks Mr. Warrington. "Yes, sir!" says the chaplain, with some spirit; "because somebody else is hurt, and through my fault.
Suddenly there rode into view, coming from the head of the string of cars, a wild rider, plying whip and heel to maddened pinto pony. "Wonota! Go back! You'll be killed!" shrieked Ruth. And then she added: "The picture will be ruined if you are hurt." Even had the Indian girl heard Ruth's cry she would have given it small attention.
"I never could talk to you right. For a long time I couldn't talk at all, and then that night I talked most of the night I didn't tell the real things, after all. And at the last I told you something I knew would hurt you without telling you the things that might keep it from hurting, without saving for you the things you had thought you saw.
"Do you mean," she said incredulously, "do you mean you're going to sacrifice Peter to Roger?" "It won't hurt Peter now as it would have done before." Nan spoke rather tonelessly. "He's already lost his faith and trust in me. The worst wrench for him is over.

In mighty great pain in my back still, but I perceive it changes its place, and do not trouble me at all in making of water, and that is my joy, so that I believe it is nothing but a strain, and for these three or four days I perceive my overworking of my eyes by candlelight do hurt them as it did the last winter, that by day I am well and do get them right, but then after candlelight they begin to be sore and run, so that I intend to get some green spectacles.

And she would have told him, and perhaps have found in his wisdom a way to let go, and renounce the evil thing that she proposed.
Actually beaten him!" "Sent him home to Lady Alexandrina with two black eyes." "Two black eyes! What a young pickle! But did he get hurt himself?" "Not a scratch he says." "And what'll they do to him?" "Nothing. Crosbie won't be fool enough to do anything. A man becomes an outlaw when he plays such a game as he has played.

"No, not I. I told the government in careful and unrhetorical language the incident of his coming here, and what I did, and my reasons for doing it that was all." "And you being governor they took your advice. See, my lord, if this thing is done to him it will be to your own discomfiture. It will hurt you in the public service."
"If she'd said much more, I'd just have put her out of the house, talking to you like that, as if you were a little child, Cloudy!" "Why, children!
