It is pardonable to wish to enjoy her society nay, a harmless flirtation with her is, perhaps, not censurable; but that is the utmost length to which a man of honor can go! Remember she has a reputation to lose, a heart to break!" "What do you mean by that long sermon?" demanded the Viscount, setting his teeth and frowning savagely.
Andrew, on the other hand, was stout and broadly built, with a bushy whisker on each cheek, and a clump of tufty hair on his head. "What do ye mak' o' that, Andrew?" enquired Peter, after a few minutes, as he again spat savagely at the stoop-side.
He seemed to be impressed with a conviction that nature had put his hind legs in front, and that he could see with his tail; and whenever I attempted to start him, he always proceeded backward until I whipped him savagely, and then he would go in a proper manner, but suddenly, and with the air of a horse who had a conviction that there was a lunatic in the carriage who didn't know what he was about.
"I shouldn't be surprised if the belt flew off the wheel some day," savagely said Ingolby's snub-souled critic, whose enmity was held in check by the fact that on Ingolby, for the moment, depended the safety of the hard cash he had invested. But the qualities which alienated an expert here and there caught the imagination of the pioneer spirits of Lebanon.
"You're very bad, I fear," remarked a gentle voice at the side of his hammock. Miles looked round. It was good-natured, lanky, cadaverous Moses Pyne.

The sight of gold was too much for them. They scrambled, they fought, they trampled upon each other. The yellow metal acted upon them like strong drink.
Most of the pirates were disgusted with their admiral's "conduct," or leadership, and urged a speedy return to Port Royal. Others, no less disgusted, swore savagely that they would see the job through. Some, who had eaten more burnt leather than the others, "did laugh and joke at all their discourses," and so laid a last straw upon their burden.
They are being defeated, and about to lose their one chance of the proud distinction of holding the championship of Canada. From man to man Campbell goes as he finds opportunity his face white, his eyes ablaze, adjuring, urging, entreating, commanding, in a way quite unusual with him. A new spirit seizes the men. Savagely they press the enemy.

But he showed few signs of strain. Once in a while he would sit with closed eyes or pass his hands across his brows as if they pained him.
He nodded and silently pointed to the notice. "Oh, well, he won't hurt you, will he?" "Can't stand it," he answered savagely, "must get away." "What about Gwen?" I ventured, for she was the light of his eyes. "Pity to stop her studies." I was giving her weekly lessons at the old man's ranch. "Dunno. Ain't figgered out yet about that baby." She was still his baby.
