His sacrifices were to be suspicion, diffidence, mistrust, a lowering pouting sullenness, watchings, wardings, researchings, plyings, explorations, together with the waylayings, ambushes, narrow observations, and malicious doggings of the husband's scouts and espials of the most privy actions of their wives.
"You might run to your nurse, and complain of me to her if you had one," she answered, pouting her lips contemptuously at him. He colored; she went on boldly, and with eager play of gesture.
"O Jenny, Jenny! what a shocking thing of you to say, when you knew what your grandmother meant as well as you knew your name was Jane Lavender!" "I rather think thou dost, my lass," said old Mrs Lavender quietly. "Well, I suppose you mean to run down Mr Featherstone," said Jenny, pouting. "You're always running him down.

Stewart did not know why she laughed, but he found the sound and sight of the laugh new and charming.
