Perhaps it was my very shyness she was smiling at? S'death! what a simpleton Ho! what do I hear? A woman's voice a cry? of terror? There again! a scream! the words, "Help, oh! help!" Is it she who is calling? Yes yes it is she! By such strange sounds were my reflections interrupted. Turning my horse with a wrench, I urged him back along the path.

Ah, catch them taking a straight road. But to put on those airs of helplessness, to wave him that gay good-by, and then the moment his back was turned, to be off through the air on perhaps on her muff, to the home he had thought to lure her from. In a word, to be diddled by a girl when one flatters himself he is diddling! S'death, a dashing fellow finds it hard to bear.

"You are," said the duke, "a man whom I love, and consider more faithful and praiseworthy than any of my people. The others," said he, looking at the three lords, "are wicked men. But, Raoul," he continued, "sit thee down. When the linnets come they are linnets of high degree you can make your way home. S'death!

"S'death!" cried the bully, endeavouring to draw his sword, "if you do not instantly desist, I will treat you like that accursed bird cut your throat, pluck, stuff, roast, and eat you afterwards."

No, 'tis the second, third, sixth, tenth time, sir, hey-day! what a trampling over head! hollo! cabin boy! what's the matter? The wind chopp'd about! s'Death then I shall meet him full in the face.

If you do not rise I will insult you I, your servant. You are a coward do you hear? a coward!" And behold! the insolent page boxed the king's ears. "S'death!" cried Charming, drawing his sword. "Before dying I will have the pleasure of punishing one subject, at least." But the page had left the tent.

SCHWARZ. He's hanged, that's all, and four others with him RAz. Roller hanged? S'death! when? How do you know? SCHWARZ. He has been in limbo more than three weeks, and we knew nothing of it. He was brought up for examination three several days, and still we heard nothing. They put him to the rack to make him tell where the captain was to be found but the brave fellow would not slip.

"A truce to this drunken foolery," cried Richard, moving away. "Drunken! s'death! recall that epithet, Dick," cried Nicholas, angrily. "I am no more drunk than yourself, you dog.
