Much, the benevolent-looking gentleman opined, with beaming spectacles, must be forgiven to men of genius. Their temptations no doubt are far keener than with most of us.
Langford, who could not bear any one but Geoffrey to act without consulting her, pitied man and horse for being out so late, and opined that Beatrice forgot that she was not in London, where the medical man could be called in so easily.
"'Fraid so," was the response, after which he turned his head away and gently closed his eyes. I opined that conversation was not to his wish, but this only made me more determined to talk, and to talk to him above all others in London.
Randal had suspected Violante to be there: he resolved to ascertain. Randal descended from his vehicle and rang the bell. The lodge-keeper opined the great wooden gates. "I have called to see the young lady staying here, the foreign young lady."
Eglett opined. But he had been impressed. He relieved his mind on the subject in a communication to Lord Adderwood; who habitually shook out the contents of his to Mrs.
"The boss must be a good man, him being a sort of psalm-singer," Bill ventured, guilelessly. Denny snorted: "Oh, sure! He's good, all right. He's 'most too good to be true. Billy, my boy, when you've seen as many crooks as I have you'll know 'em, no matter how they come dressed." As he folded the cot Mr. Hyde opined that worldly experience must indeed be a fine thing to possess.
"I guess arter that dressing down you giv' him las' night he'll want to be, all right," opined the black-mustached man. "Guess so," grinned Buck; "if he ain't, it'll be the worse fer him." As he spoke they topped a little rise. Over in front of them, and on all sides the desert, vast, illimitable, untrod of man, lay, a desolate expanse of nothingness.
Isaac opined that the firm might scrape to windward of bankruptcy by that means, and advised Alexander to take remarkable pains about keeping sober. But forthwith Alexander, still in his cups, "and at a music hall, too, a place he knows 'Isaac's' religious connection holds in profound horror," gets to brawling, and is next discovered in hospital with a broken thigh.
The potatoes harmonised with the prevailing flavour; not so the ginger-bread, however, nor the butter. Everything was oniony; they finished their repast with a sweet onion-tart! To make things worse, the sky soon became overcast, a stiff breeze began to blow, and Mr McAllister "opined" that there was going to be a squall. A piercing shriek put an abrupt termination to the meal!
Nibet had cast a keen and experienced eye all over the cell; under the washstand he saw the little bundle of clothes which he had brought the prisoner the previous day. He rightly opined that the first thing to do was to remove these dangerous articles, whose presence in Gurn's cell would appear very suspicious if they happened to be discovered.
