John turned politician; what! thou all of a sudden to become a railer against the divine sex that made thee what thou art! Fly, fly, unhappy apostate, or expect the fate of Orpheus, at least!" "None of your raileries, Tarleton, or I shall speak to you of plebeians and the canaille!" "Sacre! my teeth are on edge already! Oh, the base, base canaille, how I loathe them!

I cannot do anything else but love him now, but you must hate and loathe him. Think of me as your wife me, the thief's daughter, whispered about, pointed at. Think, as I have done, of that possible time when you might love me less because of him and the wrong he did you, when you might be ashamed to be seen with me. People don't forget crimes like his, Harry; they talk of them to their children.

Fenwick credit but Phoebe, brought up in frugal ways, to loathe the least stain of debt, hated to claim it, and went there in the dusk, that she might not be seen. Meanwhile not a line from John to tell her that his pictures had gone in to the Academy.

I should faint did I name the name you are most dearly bound to loathe and to detest. Think remember!" A terrible recollection flashed on Jeanie, which every tone of the speaker confirmed, and which his next words rendered certainty. "Be composed remember Muschat's Cairn, and the moonlight night!"

Young man, I greatly fear we're going to grow fond of you." "You had planned to spend the summer here, had you not, Mrs. Parker?" "Yes. John Parker, have you any idea what's going to become of us?" "We'll go to Santa Barbara and take rooms at a hotel there for the present," he informed her. "I loathe hotels," she protested. "I think I informed you, Mrs.

"It is laughable at times. Did you expect your children to be fountains of sentiment? And, look here if I can get along in comfort with you for life you in particular ought to put up peacefully with Lowrie. He is a damned sight more human than, at bottom, you are; a woman of alabaster." "I loathe quarrels," she admitted; "they are so vulgar. You know that they are not like me and just said so.

Two terrible conjectures beset me either in her walk she had met some admirer, with whom she had fled; or, unable to bear the companionship and poverty of a union which she had begun to loathe, she had gone forth to drown herself in the Seine.

You loathe the life you lead, else you would not speak of it as you do. Come home with me. Come to my mother. She and my aunt Alice live together. I will see that they give you a welcome. And to-morrow I will see if some honest way of living cannot be found for you. Come home with me." She was silent for a minute, and he hoped he had gained his point. Then she said

An enthusiastic house captain is apt to believe that by assiduous practice the most unlikely and awkward recruit can be converted into a useful batsman, and the result is that he will drive all his house day after day to the nets, until they begin to loathe the sight of a cricket ball.
