If I thought it was that son of Satan, the serjeant, who is ever philandering and following you about Who was it, I say?" Mariquita would not answer. "In with you, shameless, idle daughter of pauper parents, who died in my debt, leaving you on my hands! Is it thus that you repay me my bounty the home I give you the bread you eat? Go in, jade, and earn it, or I'll put you into the street."
Give me the children. 'But they won't go with you. They love their step-mother. 'Love that painted jade? They, with Jewish blood warm in their veins, with the memory of their mother warm in their hearts? Impossible! He opened the door gently. 'Becky! Joe! No, don't you come, Madge, darling. It's all right. The old lady wants to say "Good-day" to the children.
Ere the Yeomanry came, Chrissy knew the stock by heart, and could have drawn them, and cut out patterns and shapes of them, and probably did so, the little jade, when she got home. Bourhope came with his fellows, and was more specially introduced to Corrie and Chrissy. He had had some general acquaintance with both of them before.
From whence the raillery: To honour the saints after the fashion of Poissy. There is still the crucifix of Poissy, which kept the stomachs warm; and the matins of Poissy, which concluded with a little chorister. Finally, of a hearty jade well acquainted with the ways of love, it was said She is a nun of Poissy. That property of a man which he can only lend, was The key of the Abbey of Poissy.
"We've no time for any Bedlam scenes now. Come along, you mad jade. I'll teach you submission in time." With this, he endeavoured to force her off; but, before he could accomplish his purpose, he was arrested, and his throat seized by Jack. In the struggle, Mrs. Sheppard broke from him, and filled the room with her shrieks.
I will watch over you as long as you live." "And that will be for years, you accursed jade," replied the sexton; "Dr. Hodges says I shall recover." "You have got worse since he left you," replied Judith. "Lie down, and let me throw these blankets over you." "Off!" cried the sick man, furiously. "You shall not approach me. You want to smother me."
To my thinking, I never saw a prettier place; and even the trees and flowers seemed to say to me, We are your own again. But I must not let imagination jade me thus. It would be to make disappointment doubly bitter: and, God knows, I have in my child's family matter enough to check any exuberant joy. June 14.
Bracegirdle: "Playing at tric-trac; so can't play the fool in your green-room to-night. On this, a musical ringing laugh was heard from outside the door, where the pseudo Bracegirdle was washing the gray from her hair, and the wrinkles from her face ah! I wish I could do it as easily! and the little bit of sticking-plaster from her front tooth. "Why, it is the Irish jade!" roared Cibber.
It was a lovely evening; the spring light was in the air, the tufted trees beside the canal were pink against the pale sky, and thin layers of ice, like fragments of jade, broke the soft blue of the water. How pleasant to feel the cobbles firm beneath one's feet, to know that the snow was gone for many months, and that light now would flood the streets and squares!
I will have those pitiful charms, which now I despise, mangled in my sight; for I will not suffer the little jade I hate to riot in the beauties I contemn. No; though I despise him myself, though I would spurn him from my feet, was he to languish at them, no other should taste the happiness I scorn. Why do I say happiness? To me it would be misery.
