"Yes, and you're lucky he didn't take a finger off," Dal said, trembling with anger. "He doesn't like you any more than I do, and you'll get bit every time you come near him, so you'd better keep your hands to yourself." "Don't worry," Jack Alvarez said, "he won't get another chance. You can just get rid of him." "Not a chance," Dal said. "You leave him alone and he won't bother you, that's all.

"Show me a fine libretto!" "Tell me how much you'd pay." She laughed. "Five times as much as anyone else offered you. But you would have to prove the offer to my satisfaction." Gillier fidgeted on his chair, took hold of the Dépêche Algérienne, and began carefully to fold it into pleats. "I should want a royalty," he said, keeping his shining eyes on her.

I wish you'd seen her!" "I believe she saw and felt her fault in that case. Didn't she ask your pardon? she said she would." "Yes," said Miss Fortune, drily "after a fashion." "Has she had her letter yet?" "No." "How is she to-day?" "Oh, she's well enough she's sitting up. You can go up and see her." "I will, directly," said Alice.

"I don't like it, you know," he said. "You don't have to like it," said Sally. "You just do it." A consoling thought flashed upon Ginger. "You'd have to let me pay you interest." "Let you? My lad, you'll have to pay me interest. What do you think this is a round game? It's a cold business deal." "Topping!" said Ginger relieved. "How about twenty-five per cent."

Remember the name, Bart, because I won't remember it." "Why not?" Raynor Three gave him a gold-glinting, enigmatic glance. "I'm a Mentorian, remember? I'm good at not remembering things. Just be glad I remember Rupert Steele. If you'd been a few days later, I wouldn't have remembered him, though I promised to wait for you." Raynor One demanded, "Get him out of here, Three!"

"Why, how dumb you talk! I guess abody wants to help. Them soldiers are fightin' for us. Now you can get yourself something to eat. It vonders me, anyhow, why you come home this time of the year. You said you'd stay till June." "I came because I want to be here." "So. Then I guess you got enough once of the city." "Yes," said Phœbe, laughing. "But how is everybody?" "All pretty good.

If you want to put it that way," Wat grumbled. "I knew you'd be sensible," Hilary said hurriedly, not giving them a chance to change their minds. "At the slightest alarm, take off. Don't try to rescue us if we don't return. The Earth cause is more important than any individual. If you get caught, too, the revolt will be leaderless; at an end." The men shook hands gravely.

"Nat," he said suddenly, rousing that young man out of the dreariest of meditations, "what under the sun can you do?" "Me? I don't know. Why bother your silly old head about that? I'll make out somehow." "But surely there's something you'd rather do than anything else."

I'm not trying to find out what the trouble is but I wish you'd remember that I'm ready to do anything in the world that I can. You won't misunderstand that, I'm sure." "No-o," said Marian slowly. "But you see, there's nothing that you can do except, perhaps, make things worse for me." Then, to lighten that statement, she smiled at him.

"If I was fool enough to lose it that way, I won't take it back." "I knew that, too I guessed it. Oh, Terry, I know a pile more about the inside of your head than you'd ever guess! Well, I knew that and I come with the money so's you can pay back Dad in the morning. Here it is and they's just a mite more to help you on your way."
