Somebody's word has got to break, and you may take it from me that it will be the word of the weakest man! I think that that man is Jaimihr, but I can't be sure in advance, and we've got to accept his promise to begin with. Go to him, Miss McClean, and make a very careful bargain with him along the line I mapped out for you. Alwa-sahib, I want witnesses, or rather overhearers.
From his hassock in the center of the room he looked uneasily around. "Say, did that violet tone in the glass come from the high Cleveland hydrogen bomb or is it just age and ultraviolet, like desert glass?" "No, somebody's grandfather liked it that color," Gusterson informed him with happy bitterness. "I like it too the glass, I mean, not the tint.
Then Rose sang a song, in which she said that her heart was aching and breaking at somebody's forsaking, and the girls looked at one another significantly; and there were more songs, and the girls sat back in their chairs with flushed faces, and each of them in turn seemed to be doing something to entertain the party.
It's no use, Nina; I'm not going to marry any girl for ever so long anyway, not until Drina releases me on her eighteenth birthday. Hello! somebody's coming and I'm off!" "I'm not at home; don't go!" said Nina, laying one hand on his arm to detain him as a card was brought up. "Oh, it's only Rosamund Fane! I did promise to go to the Craigs' with her. . . . Do you mind if she comes up?"
Sancho rose and removed some distance from the spot, but as he was about to place himself leaning against another tree he felt something touch his head, and putting up his hands encountered somebody's two feet with shoes and stockings on them.
It is a perpetual insult to mediocrity; its every word is a trespass against somebody's vested ideas, blasphemy against somebody's O'm, or intangible private truth. What is the use of my weighing out antitheses in this way, like a rhetorical grocer?
If there was only me I'd fetch it to live somehow up in somebody's garret, and go to one o' them crack teachers after I'd saved up consid'able. Then I'd go to work again an' practice them lessons till I earnt some more.
I tried to focus the many-buttoned page, in the daily airing, as he perhaps even pushed the Bath-chair over somebody's toes. I was destined to hear, none the less, through Mrs. Saltram who, I afterwards learned, was in correspondence with Lady Coxon's housekeeper that Gravener was known to have spoken of the habitation I had in my eye as the pleasantest thing at Clockborough.
Blenham would wriggle out, I suppose; or he would get a light sentence and trim that down to nothing with good behavior. No, Blenham, if you ever go to jail it will be somebody's else doing; not mine. Is it just jail for the man who shot down my old pardner in cold blood, just for the sake of a handful of money?
He's thinking of some reproductions Herbert Tunbridge got while he was abroad pictures of things somebody's unearthed in Sicily or Cyprus. 'Crete, my dear. He turned his back on the fond mother and Jean who was already oh-ing with appreciation at the first of a pile of little Saras and Cecils.
