Altogether the scene was somewhat peculiar, at least to Captain Delano, nor, as he saw the two thus postured, could he resist the vagary, that in the black he saw a headsman, and in the white a man at the block. But this was one of those antic conceits, appearing and vanishing in a breath, from which, perhaps, the best regulated mind is not always free.
But what can be the end of those that are proud in the decking of themselves after their antic manner? Why are they for going with their bull's foretops, with their naked shoulders, and paps hanging out like a cow's bag? Why are they for painting their faces, for stretching out their neck, and for putting of themselves unto all the formalities which proud fancy leads them to?
During the long hours of this trying day Clark had kept up the spirits of his men in every way he could. In telling about it later, he said: "I received much help from a little antic drummer, a boy with such a fun-loving spirit that he made the men laugh, in spite of their weariness, at his pranks and jokes."
Hast thou a pleasant life there?" "In truth, yes, so please you, sir, save when one is hungry. There be Punch-and-Judy shows, and monkeys oh such antic creatures! and so bravely dressed! and there be plays wherein they that play do shout and fight till all are slain, and 'tis so fine to see, and costeth but a farthing albeit 'tis main hard to get the farthing, please your worship."

Moreover I'll take anybody out of the action that you don't want around and if there were anything else I could do " "Got to win off my own service," says Ted. "You know.
His voice dropped from its pitch of antic whimsey, and became for a moment grave, as he added: "And, because of my love for you, I've lived a life almost as clean as your own."
And thus, during the whole of his long illness, the Antic held his state, while the poor mortal representative of absolute power lay living still, but slowly mouldering away.
At best, life is an experiment, Death the final adventure. Feminism seems to me its next of kin; still we may not call the woman who assails the soap boxes even those that antic about the White House gates by the opprobrious terms of adventuress. Where such a one is not a lunatic she is a nuisance. There are women and women. We may leave out of account the shady ladies of history.

But the moment after, some wild whim would make her resume her antic movements; and all went worse than before. The priest then spoke in a kind although serious tone: "My fair young maiden, surely no one can look on you without pleasure; but remember betimes so to attune your soul that it may produce a harmony ever in accordance with the soul of your wedded bridegroom."
