Doucebelle silently doubted that statement. "O Eva, for shame!" said Marie. "Doucebelle always does what every body wants her, unless she thinks it is wrong." "Thou dost not call that love, I hope?" "I think it is quite as like it as wishing people to do what they don't want, to please you," said Marie, sturdily. "I don't believe one of you knows any thing about it," loftily returned Eva.
"Do yuh want to be put on the pay-roll?" he asked, without any preamble, when he caught my glance. "Yes, if I'm earning wages. 'The laborer is worthy of his hire, I believe," I retorted loftily. The fact was, I was strapped again and, though one did not need money on the Bay State Ranch, it's a good thing to have around. He grinned into his collar.
Peckover loftily, but dropping her voice in imitation of Mr. Blyth, "a clever man, too, like you! Dear, dear me! how often must I keep on telling you that I'm old enough to be able to hold my tongue? How much longer are you going to worrit yourself about hiding what nobody's seeking after?" "I'm afraid I shall always worry myself about it," replied Valentine seriously.
"Our friend here is a wonderful man for starting a chase. All he wants is an old dog to help him do the running down." "I hope a wild goose may not prove to be the end of our chase," observed Mr. Merryweather, gloomily. "You may place considerable confidence in Mr. Holmes, sir," said the police agent, loftily.

Straight ahead the ledge ceased to exist. To our left was a hundred-foot drop to the talus that sloped down to the cañon. The cañon did not look so very far away, and we desired mightily to reach it.
"Yes, indeed!" cried Betty. "I think it will be perfectly lovely. It is so generous of you, Eugenia, to spend so much for our pleasure!" "Oh, that's nothing," answered Eugenia, loftily. "Plenty more where that came from." On the way to the house, Joyce met Mrs. Sherman driving toward her in a dog-cart. "Do you want to drive down to the post-office with me?" she asked. "There is room for one more."

And as England cultivates those golden, if sometimes wrinkled, fruits, it would have seemed to him, in thinking about it, an entirely lucky thing for the finder; while a question of blood would have fired his veins to rival heat of self-assertion, very loftily towering: there were Kings in Ireland: cry for one of them in Uladh and you will hear his name, and he has descendants yet!
