"Anna, what means this passion?" cried Michael, in astonishment. "Silence, slave!" cried the imperious woman. "What ho, there!" she added, stamping her foot; "who waits?" Half a dozen menials sprang to her call. "Take me this slave to the court yard!" she cried vehemently; "he has been guilty of misbehavior. Let him taste the knout; and woe be to you if you spare him. Away with him!
"I'd be a Vestal and all hope gone," said Brinnaria, "I mean," said Flexinna, "suppose Almo comes before your father." "I've thought of that," Brinnaria admitted. "But I'd hate to break the record of which our family is so proud. None of our women ever were so much as accused of any misbehavior before marriage." "I've no p-p-patience with you," Flexinna raged.
Jack put his head on one side, then, quite forgetful of all his misbehavior, he gave a delighted grunt, and scuttling toward the man, he whined, jerked his nose, and held up his sticky, greasy arms to be lifted and petted as though he were the best little Bear in the world.

Before I left Madame d'Urfe, I told her that the lad might be he who should make her to be born again, but that she would spoil all if she did not wait for him to attain the age of puberty. After what she had said about his misbehavior, the reader will guess what made me say this.

The general inefficiency and wide-spread misbehavior of the English captains, after five years of declared war, will partly explain the failure of England to obtain from her undoubted naval superiority the results she might have expected in this war the first act in a forty years' drama and they give military officers a lesson on the necessity of having their minds prepared and stocked, by study of the conditions of war in their own day, if they would not be found unready and perhaps disgraced in the hour of battle.
Only the best people go and no sort of freedom or misbehavior is tolerated. I think I'll take out a membership." "Oh, do, please do," she entreated. The elegant wedding was talked of for days. Girls called on Miss Leverett it seemed funny to be called that.
She must sit quietly under the charge that her sacrifice was not a sacrifice at all, but the penalty paid for her own misbehavior. This is a more cruel thing than the spying that sapped her and the atrocities practised upon her, because it is more cruel to take a man's honor than his property and his life. "If the peasants had stayed in their houses, they would have been safe."
