O'Conor the while became more and more savage. I attempted to say a word to Fanny, but failed. Vox faucibus haesit. "I don't think he has got any others," said Tizzy "at least none others left." On the whole I am glad I did not marry into the family, as I could not have endured that girl to stay in my house as a sister-in-law. "Where the d has that other fellow gone to?" said Tom.

Green knows that we expect a great deal from him this evening. I hope you polk well, Mr. Green," said Kate. I muttered something about never dancing, but I knew that that which I said was inaudible. "I don't think Mr. Green will dance," said Tizzy; "at least not much." The impudence of that child was, I think, unparalleled by any that I have ever witnessed.

Belcher and Baldwin had pounced upon their man, and had him up and in his corner in an instant, but, in spite of the coolness with which the hardy smith took his punishment, there was immense exultation amongst the west-countrymen. "We've got him! He's beat! He's beat!" shouted the two Jew seconds. "It's a hundred to a tizzy on Gloucester!" "Beat, is he?" answered Belcher.

"Only there's one down at the heel I know," said Tizzy. "The servant's shoes!" This was an exclamation made by the maiden lady, and intended apparently only for her brother's ear. But it was clearly audible by all the party. "Better that than no dinner," said Peter.

'I say, it is a hard case, Miss, a lad o' spirit should be kept so tight. I haven't a shilling but what comes through his fingers; an' drat the tizzy he'll gi' me till he knows the reason why. 'Perhaps, I said, 'my uncle thinks you should earn some for yourself. 'I'd like to know how a fella's to earn money now-a-days. You wouldn't have a gentleman to keep a shop, I fancy.

What! you'll lend my Paul three crowns, will you, when you knows as how you told me you could not pay me a pitiful tizzy? Oh, you're a queer one, I warrants; but you won't queer Margery Lobkins.

Very obliging we are, in these parts! How much do you look to pay?" The man drew from his pocket, presumably, the fund he had to rely upon, and appeared to count it, with dissatisfaction. "Two and a kick!" said he. "I'll go to the tizzy, for sheets." This meant he would lay out the tizzy, or kick, provided that his bed was furnished with sheets.
