Her fiery fancy, unchained from the despotic heart, illumined her under the golden future. "Come to us this evening, I will sing to you," she said, and the 'Englishman under a rope' bowed assentingly. "Sad songs, if you like," she added. "I have always thought sadness more musical than mirth," said he. "Surely there is more grace in sadness!"
They drew a breath of relief, and nodded assentingly; and presently they made a general movement of departure. Lord Bannerdale lingered behind the others. "I won't ask the poor child to see me, Mr. Wordley," he said.
"See! she must be a born actress. They always exaggerate in that style, so that you would really think she had a mighty passion for Brookfield." "Or in it," suggested Freshfield. "Or in it!" she laughed assentingly. Mr. Pole was perceived entering the garden, rubbing his hands a little too obsequiously to some remark of the baronet's, as the critical ladies imagined.
'Lisha gave a convulsive gasp that was almost a sob. "Jerome!" called the teacher. She was a young woman from another village, mildly and assentingly good, virtue having, like the moon, only its simply illuminated side turned towards her vision.
"Oh too awful!" "Well, of course," the girl appeared assentingly to muse, "she couldn't after all have dreamed !" But she took herself up. "The great thing is to be helpful." "And in what way ?" Mitchy asked with his wonderful air of inviting competitive suggestions. "Toward Aggie's finding herself. Do you think," she immediately continued, "that Lord Petherton really is?"
Let's forget him." "You said it, Marie. Stacked up to me like a guy that's got just enough dough for a good big souse. He ain't hard to forget is he, girlie?" Marie laughed assentingly. And if she did not quite attain her old bubbling spirits during the evening, at least she sent Joe back to San Francisco feeling very well satisfied with himself. He must have been satisfied with himself.
"That's vot it is, sir," said Beck, assentingly, laying his dexter forefinger on his sinister palm. "Well! you are in my service, then. Go downstairs now and get your breakfast; by and by you shall show me your 'mammy's' house, and we'll see what can be done for her."
"Patriotism sparkled in those bright eyes of hers love for the land of lilies, from which she is at present one transplanted!" Alwyn smiled also, assentingly, and thought how gracious, kindly, and gentle were the look and voice of the speaker.
"She faints if I go into the room. How long do you think it will last, Lettice? Will she ever get over it, do you think?" "If she loves you, I think she will, Sydney. But you must give her time. No doubt it was a great shock to her," said Lettice. He looked at her assentingly, and then stared out of the window as if absorbed in thought.
The Prior was in his place in the shadow and was leaning over and talking to a man who sat beside him. Chris could make out little of the latter except that he seemed to be a sort of lawyer or clerk, and was dressed in a dark gown and cap. He was turning over the leaves of a book as the Prior talked, and nodded his head assentingly from time to time.
