The prettiest little brick city, the pleasantest little park to ride in, the neatest comfortable people walking about, the canals not unsweet, and busy and picturesque with old-world life. Rows upon rows of houses, built with the neatest little bricks, with windows fresh painted, and tall doors polished, and carved to a nicety.

Cecilia looked the loveliest of women to Beauchamp's eyes, with her blush, and the letters of Dr. Shrapnel in her custody, at her express desire. Certain terms in the letters here and there, unsweet to ladies, began to trouble his mind. 'By the way, colonel, he said, 'you had a letter of Dr. Shrapnel's read to you by Captain Baskelett. 'Iniquitous rubbish!

Lady Charlotte was nine-and-twenty years of age; with clear and telling stone-blue eyes, firm but not unsweet lips, slightly hollowed cheeks, and a jaw that certainly tended to be square. Her colour was healthy. Walking or standing her figure was firmly poised. Her chief attraction was a bell-toned laugh, fresh as a meadow spring.

Long now he had been accustomed to the greater sense of proportion in things mental and emotional which amounts to a greyer level of feeling; he had lived on those not unsweet flats for years. But only lately had the physical messages been flashing along to him down his nerves and muscles, and he resented them far more bitterly than anything mental or spiritual.

He is not made happy in the eating of my kill, nor is living to him a delight. He does not live. And so I say it is well this Stranger Man should go. His wisdom does not make us wise. If he be cunning, there is no need that we be cunning. If need arise, we go to him for his cunning. We eat the meat of his kill, and it tastes unsweet. We merit by his strength, and in it there is no delight.

'You have given Harry your promise, and if he empowers you, it is right to make the proposal, and immediately, I think. She spoke feverishly, with an unsweet expression of face, that seemed to me to indicate vexedness at the squire's treatment of my father. 'Harry, she asked me in a very earnest fashion, 'is it your desire? Tell your grandfather that it is, and that you want to know your fate.

Nothing could be so bitter as what had been; and whatever was the mystery of their youth, which it was impossible to unravel now whether he had ever loved, or loved her and crushed it down and forgotten it, or only felt very kindly and cordially to her, as he did now, the past was well, only the past! and the future lay still before her, not unsweet.

"I have the usual retinue, possibly," said Violetta. "Dear countess, I could be one of them myself!" Adela burst out with tentative boldness. "Then, kiss me." And behold, they interchanged that unsweet feminine performance. Adela's lips were unlocked by it. "How many would envy me, dear Countess d'Isorella!"

The defect had been pointed out to Madame Faragon more than once; but that lady, though in most of the affairs of life her temper is gentle and kindly, cannot hear with equanimity an insinuation that any portion of her house is either dirty or unsweet. Complaints have reached her that the beds were well, inhabited but no servant now dares to hint at anything wrong in this particular.
