His Conservatoire classes he changed from afternoon to morning; and, though he taught abominably, Nicholas kept the dire red notice from him by doing much of his work over after him, that he might be free for once to laugh with the spring.
And the sow looked at him with little languishing eyes, and licked his fingers; she ended by screaming abominably when he went away.
In the first place, he is abominably lazy, and never does anything like his share of the work; in the second place, to my mind he is an evil-looking scoundrel. I don’t want to deprive him of a share of the money if the time ever comes when we may talk of dividing it, but in the meantime there is no reason why he should know it has been moved.
And of Dunk, whom Slim had hated most abominably of old; Dunk, a criminal found out; Dunk, a prisoner right there on the very ranch he had thought to despoil; Dunk, at that very moment locked in the blacksmith shop.
And presently his soul rejected the lie he had abominably thought of. He knew he could not tell Rosamund a life. Then what was he to do?

I have been abominably extravagant, and she is not rich, and there are a lot of us. I owe a good bit to Tiffin, and to my London tailor too, but he will wait any time.
She has profited so well by my beautiful influence that she has gone far beyond the great original. I say I'm horrified," Mrs. Pallant dreadfully wound up, "because she's horrible." "My poor extravagant friend," I pleaded, "isn't it still more so to hear a mother say such things?" "Why so, if they're abominably true? Besides, I don't care what I say if I save him."
There appears to be no doubt, sir, that John has been abominably used." "When did this take place?" asked the father. "Last night, sir, after you were asleep," was the reply. "It's most extraordinary," said Mr. Nicholson. "Do you mean to say you have been out all night?" "All night, as you say, sir. I have been to the telegraph and the police office, and Mr. MacEwen's.
They had plenty to eat and drink, and a comfortable home, and not a care in the world; and familiarity with their master had bred assurance; and so they had become quite tame, and shamefully, abominably lazy. Luxury, we are taught, was ever the mother of sloth. I could put my hand in amongst them, and not one would bestir himself the littlest bit to escape me. Mercedes and I were inseparable.
