'Oh, of course not! said the bishop; 'but to save appearances you know, my dear 'I don't want to save appearances; I want Mr Slope to appear just what he is a false, designing, mean, intriguing man. I have my eye on him; he little knows what I see. He is misconducting himself in the most disgraceful way with that lame Italian woman.
"Quite fair," said the man; "if I've been misconducting myself in any manner " "Don't mention it," said the colonel politely, "my friend here will apologise for handling you roughly, I'm sure; won't you, Mr. Silva?" "Sure!" said the other, without any great heartiness. He was tired of this conversation and was anxious to know where it was leading.
"But that shows nothing," said the Rector, speaking in anger. "He very rarely does come, and when he does, it would be better that he should be away. I think that he likes to insult me by misconducting himself. They say that she is not well, and I can easily believe that all this about her sister makes her unhappy. If I were you, I would go up and call.
Slope was to fall and bite the dust, that worthy bulwark of the church as it should be, that honoured representative of Oxford's best spirit, was so at least his wife had told him half a dozen times misconducting himself!

Only this evening I found her on the front door-step with young Bladen. She is not the kind for you to be serious about. Everybody knows how common she is."
Down near the end of the line he had seen one of his own men misconducting himself, snivelling and crying like a baby, a fine husky boy of eighteen who had never given any trouble. Claude made a dash for him and clapped him on the shoulder. "If you can't stop that, Bert Fuller, get where you won't be seen.
