But the words entered Tess with accusatory horror. It was as if this man had known her recent history; yet he was a total stranger. Having finished his text he picked up her basket, and she mechanically resumed her walk beside him. "Do you believe what you paint?" she asked in low tones. "Believe that tex? Do I believe in my own existence!"
The other letters from Egypt were not less accusatory than Kleber's; and it cannot be doubted that charges of so precise a nature, brought by the general who had now become commander-in-chief against his predecessor, would have had great weight, especially backed as they were by similar complaints from other quarters.
You hum you think, said Mr Dorrit, with an accusatory emphasis, 'that I am not looking well. 'I thought you looked a little tired, love. 'Then you are mistaken, said Mr Dorrit. 'Ha, I am not tired. Ha, hum. I am very much fresher than I was when I went away. He was so inclined to be angry that she said nothing more in her justification, but remained quietly beside him embracing his arm.
In Selina's set people only harried each other from morning till night with extravagant accusations it was all a kind of horse-play of false charges. When Lady Davenant was accusatory it was within the limits of perfect verisimilitude. Laura waited for Mrs. Berrington to come in but she failed to appear, so that the girl gathered her waterproof together with an intention of departure.
Two things Teeny-bits did not mention: the incident of finding Snubby Turner breaking into Campbell's room and the accusatory letter that had led to the discovery of the stolen loot.

I tried to disregard them to ignore the presence of these two pretty girls and confine myself strictly to what Maillot had to relate. It was not easy to do, since Miss Fluette's attitude toward me had become not only openly accusatory, but more than a little scornful; and I feared, moreover, that I should shortly lose the support of Miss Cooper's sympathetic interest.
He was patriotic, and in a way honest, but meddlesome, suspicious, vain, and quarrelsome to an incredible degree. He immediately made up his mind that Deane was peculating, and never ceased writing accusatory letters until Congress recalled the unfortunate envoy. All this time he was also acting toward Franklin in a manner which can only be described as insane.
He could fancy well the hurt inquiry leaping into those innocent eyes. "What have I done," she asked, and his mind supplied the accusatory inference, "that you don't love me any more?" He hastened to answer. "You've been everything that's sweet and kind." He added, whether wisely or not he could not tell, what seemed to him the truth: "I haven't got hold of myself.
Admiration was of itself almost accusatory, but nothing less would serve to show her how nearly he understood. He put out his hand for good-bye with a "Splendid, splendid, splendid!" And he left her, in her splendour, still waiting for little Bilham.
When she did speak her voice was cold and hard and accusatory. "Surely, Sir Gerald Adair knows better than to take a girl of eighteen to a public ball without her relations' sanction?" "I thought only of the pleasure it would give her," he answered. "Please accept my sincerest apologies." Peg looked at him in wonder: "Sir Gerald Adair! Are YOU Sir Gerald Adair?" "Yes, Peg."
