My lady had small leaning towards food, but she sent no food away untouched, forcing herself to eat, and letting not the talk flag though it was indeed true that 'twas she herself who talked, Mistress Anne speaking rarely; but as it was always her way to be silent, and a listener rather than one who conversed, this was not greatly noticeable.
You are giving away a fortune," I remonstrated. "It is my own, and my capital remains untouched." "Have you told her that you love her? Does she know who you are?" I was very much excited. "No," sadly, "I haven't told her that I love her. She does not know who I am. What is more, I never want her to know. I have thrown my arms roughly around her, thinking her to be Nancy, and have kissed her.
While some families were leaving the ground the lodges of others were still standing untouched. At this old Mene-Seela grew impatient, and walking out to the middle of the village stood with his robe wrapped close around him, and harangued the people in a loud, sharp voice.
Marcia came, but was not admitted. Sir Wilfrid Bury asked if he might see her, just for a few minutes. A message referred him to the next morning. Dinner came and went down untouched. Whenever she was ill, Lady Coryston's ways were solitary and ungracious. She hated being "fussed over." So that no one dared force themselves upon her.
Moreover, there is no love lost between them and the Spaniards, and though possibly money for any of the Portuguese leaders might be allowed to pass untouched by others and even of this I have great doubt I feel convinced that none of them would allow it to go out of the country for the use of the Spaniards if they could lay hold of it by the way."
But they remained untouched on the shelves of the music shops; silently they disappeared and left no trace behind, just as if they had been dropped into a river by night. At last Lemm bade farewell to every thing Old age gained upon him, and he hardened, he grew stiff in mind, just as his fingers had stiffened.
"That does not rest with me," I repeated, and I went on towards the brigadier's quarters, leaving her a white shadow in the dimly lighted passage. I found the chief at his own dinner-table with an untouched glass of wine before him. "This is a bad business," he said, looking at me with haggard eyes. I had never quite realized before what an old man he was.
For that matter, it was not a custom of hers to notice young men. There was something about them she did not understand. The way they looked at her made her uncomfortable, she knew not why; while there was an uncouthness and roughness about them that did not please her. As yet, her imagination had been untouched by man.
Trautchen, the old maid-servant, opened the door, and in the spacious, dusky entrance-hall, where the bales of leather were packed closely together, did not notice the dilapidation of his outer man. He hurried swiftly up the stairs. The dining-room door was open, and marvellous the table was still untouched, his father must have remained at the town-hall longer than usual.
They could not be untouched by his politeness; and had they drawn his character from their own feelings and his servant's report, without any reference to any other account, the circle in Hertfordshire to which he was known would not have recognized it for Mr. Darcy.
