But once there, in the reserved saloon, when the obsequious guard had finally shut the door from waving friends and last hand shakes, and they slowly steamed out of the station, he came over and sat down beside her and tenderly took her little gray-gloved hand. But she drew it away from him, and moved further off, before he could even speak. "Zara!" he said pleadingly.
May Heaven protect you!" The prince shook his head, and said with bitterness: "What does it matter? I had thought to return do not look at me so pleadingly. I have made a great mistake. I see it now, and I will not annoy you with my moaning, but Adelheid, I would willingly fall if I could but inspire for a moment the feeling and passion which you reserve for another. God bless you! Good bye!"
At last her strength seemed to give way, and sinking into a chair she took his hand and kissed it. Then Geoffrey broke from her. "This is no place for you," he said, coldly. "Geoffrey, I have come to tell you again how I loved you. I ought never to have left you. You will not cast me off from you now?" She spoke pleadingly, and stretched out one white arm as if to draw him to her.
"I say," he said, almost pleadingly, "don't tell me that you can see into people's pockets and all that sort of thing as well." Antony laughed and denied it cheerfully. "Then how do you know?" "You're the perfect Watson, Bill. You take to it quite naturally. Properly speaking, I oughtn't to explain till the last chapter, but I always think that that's so unfair. So here goes.
"Believe what you will, my brother, only come with me," and she clung to him pleadingly. "I'll call those men, Clifford." "You shall not, Harriet," he answered putting her aside. "Instead get your own horse and come back with us." "I cannot, Clifford. I must see our father. Aren't you going to kiss me?" But Clifford turned from her, saying coldly: "You have wounded me too deeply, my sister."
And the two women, with others also, cursed heaven with the foulest blasphemies, afterwards, suddenly, to bow their heads, crossing their hands over their breasts, and suppliantly promising masses, candles, offerings, to the Virgin of Rosario and the Holy Christ of the Grao, addressing those miraculous beings pleadingly, intimately, as though the divinities were present in the flesh there before them.
And this is how you keep your word! You are selfish, unkind! I hate you!" She continued to reproach him, growing more and more angry. Words of the lowest Parisian argot, picked up from her companions of the Folies Bergere, fell from her lovely lips words that brought a blush of shame, a look of horror and repulsion, to Jack's face. "Diane," he said pleadingly, as he bent over the couch.
"Why not," said the grandfather, who having walked about with Susy awhile, and talked gravely to her, appeared to have brought about a change in her temper? "Why because she will knock it down again the first time any thing puts her out." "Won't you try her?" said Sarah, pleadingly; but they still said "No! no!"
"How could you know I was here?" she said, in bewilderment. "I didn't know," he said, slowly. "But, thank God, I have met you. I dread to think of your fatigue, but you will be glad just to see him again just to give him his last wish won't you?" he said, pleadingly. "Here is the telegraph-office. Shall I do it for you?" "No, thank you. I I must think how to word it. Please wait."
But her whole heart was in her mission, and she had utterly forgotten herself. "Won't you please believe me?" she said, advancing toward him, hands outstretched pleadingly. "I know what I'm talking about. Your sons, Arnold and Jimmy " As though the names of his boys had released some cord in his brain, the man cried out hoarsely: "Jimmy and Arnold my sons, my little boys!"
