Perhaps there was a little unwonted colour in her cheek, and life in her eye; she did not look as if she had not slept, or had had bad dreams; there was rather an unusually restful and calm expression upon her face. "Confound the fellow!" thus Percival mentally apostrophised the missing Brian Luttrell.
A gentleman with a fine head of white hair suddenly pointed an impatient finger in my direction and apostrophised me. "What I want to know is whether, should there be war, England would come in." The time to draw a breath, and I spoke out for the Cabinet without faltering. "Most assuredly. I should think all Europe knows that by this time."
"I could lie down, like a tired child, And weep away the life of care Which I have borne and yet must bear!" For what profit did this warring against destiny bring me? Nothing nothing, but the "vanity and vexation of spirit," which a more believing soul than mine had apostrophised in agony, ages before I was born.

The fact was, the Emperor had already received a copy of the letter, which had been opened at the Hamburg post-office.
Ah! women, you've much to answer for!" Having thus apostrophised the sex, he hurried on in silence, leaving his horse to the care of a youth, who also took charge of Whitewing's steed. Close to the outskirts of the camp stood a wigwam somewhat apart from the rest. It belonged to Whitewing. Only two women were in it at the time the young Indian chief approached.

Thus apostrophised, brother Ned, who had entered with Mrs Nickleby, and who had been before unobserved by the young men, darted forward, and fairly hugged brother Charles in his arms.
