"His throat's already irritated," said Nance, in her most professional tone. "I am sure Dr. Adair wouldn't want him to smoke." "But we can't refuse him anything to-night," said Mrs. Clarke, with an apologetic smile as she reached for the matches.
I'm not musical, and don't pretend to be, but I'll bet a hat that the man who invented the French horn was the same chap who invented French verbs. Well, we made McTurkle take a solemn oath never to practice after seven o'clock, because it was simply impossible to remember anything with those sounds sobbing along the entry. He was frightfully apologetic and promised at once.
Shoop labored at the piano with nervous care. When he turned to Lorry his face was beaded with sweat. "I rode her clean through to the fence," he said, with a kind of apologetic grin. "How did you like that piece?" "I always did like them old tunes," replied Lorry. "Give us another." Shoop's face beamed. "I only got one more that I can get my rope on. But if you can stand it, I can.
The man got up and moved with little steps to the child with a guilty air, which was utterly out of keeping with his huge figure and big beard. "You are not asleep, dearie?" he said, in an apologetic voice. "What do you want?" "I don't want anything, my shoulder aches! You are a wicked man, Daddy, and God will punish you! You'll see He will punish you."
Dorothea, when at about half-past ten she put on her bonnet and cloak and stepped down to visit them the prisoners having by that time cleared the pavement found herself surrounded by a crew humorously apologetic for their toilettes, profoundly envious of her better luck, but on excellent terms with one another and the younger ones, at any rate, who had borne the worst of the discomfort enjoying the adventure thoroughly.

Like's not the old gentleman 'll think to call for it as he comes back along. Here's his fan, too, but he won't be likely to want that this winter." She looked at the large umbrella; there was a great deal of good material in it, but it was considerably out of repair. "I don't know but I'll stop an' mend it up for him, poor old creatur'," she said slowly, with an apologetic look at me.
"You started and blushed when the man at breakfast called you Ma'am. You thought it a funny mistake, but you did not say anything because he was young and nervous and besides, the thought of being my wife offended your modesty. You didn't care to notice it. But you see; I gave your name as MRS. Beaumont." He looked almost apologetic, in spite of his cynical pose.
The diminutive Græculam I take to be apologetic for the Greek. It was near Ulubræ, of which he was deputy patronus in the absence of Trebatius, and he jestingly pretends that the frogs which he hears croaking in the marshes are frogs of Ulubræ turning out to do him honour, as though they were the citizens of the town.
"Please do not speak in such an apologetic tone," replied Malcolm. "If you knew how my soul abhors picnics and water-parties! It is really too delightful to know that I may enjoy your society in peace for three whole days. By the bye, where is the Colonel?" "Oh, Alick has gone to Henley to see an old chum of his, but he will be back in good time for dinner. Is it not lovely down here, Mr. Herrick?
