Otherwise, one may say that an African or South American traveller has a more exciting time. I shall manage to keep my head on its travels. 'You have ideas about the education of girls? 'They can't be carried out unaided. 'Aid will come. Weyburn's confidence, high though it was, had not mounted to that pitch. 'One may find a mate, he said.
The thought of the difference between themselves and the boys must have been something like the tight band call it corset over the chest, trying to lift and stretch for draughts of air. But Browny's feeling naturally was, that all this advantage for the boys came of Matey Weyburn's lead.
She had to resign herself to the chances of a clash of men, and, as there were two to one, she requested help of Weyburn's hand, that he might be near her. A mounted gentleman, smelling parasite in his bearing, held the bridle of Morsfield's horse. The ladies having entered the chariot, Morsfield sprang to the saddle, and said: 'You, sir, had better stretch your legs to the inn.
Nor ought they to summon morality for support of a polemic. Matey Weyburn's object of worship rode superior to a morality puffing its phrasy trumpet. And, somehow, the sacrifice of an enormous number of women to Lord Ormont's glory seemed natural; the very thing that should be, in the case of a first-rate military hero and commander Scipio notwithstanding.

So, if she, too, persisted in hammering, he must employ her female weapon of artifice with her. One would gladly avoid the stooping to it in a civil dispute, in which one is not so gloriously absolved for lying and entrapping as in splendid war. Weyburn's name was announced to him at an early hour on Thursday morning.
That's what those hosts of female men combine to try to stifle. They won't succeed, but we shall want a war to teach the country the value of courage. You catch what I am driving at? They accuse my brother of immorality because he makes no pretence to be better than the men of his class." Weyburn's eyelids fluttered.
Thoughts of the pleasure of his name aloud on her lips in his hearing dissolved through her veins, and were met by Matthew Weyburn's open face, before which hypocrisy stood rent and stripped. She preferred the calmer, the truer pleasure of seeing him modestly take lessons in the nomenclature of weeds, herbs, grasses, by hedge and ditch.
The street was a banishment and a relief when Weyburn's first interview with Lord Ormont was over. He rejoiced to tell his previous anticipations that he had not been disappointed; and he bade hero-worshippers expect no gilded figure. We gather heroes as we go, if we are among the growing: our constancy is shown in the not discarding of our old ones.
