The young wife is afoot, too, manoeuvering against the conspiracies of the janitor, who lives far below out of sight, but who permeates her small flat like a malignant influence.... Hear the whistling of the dumb-waiter!... Eggs are demanded, authoritatively, bitterly. If glances could kill, not only that flat but the whole house would be strewn with corpses.... Eggs!...
"Have you your order with you?" asked Captain Brisac. "Yes, sir," I replied; "here it is." "Then serve this young gentleman at once," he said authoritatively to the storekeeper; "and be careful what you are about with that old `junk, or you will be getting yourselves into serious trouble over it."
Accordingly, acquainting a friend of his with that which he purposed to do, they both drew near unto the place where Calandrino sat alone and feigning not to see him, fell a-discoursing together of the virtues of divers stones, whereof Maso spoke as authoritatively as if he had been a great and famous lapidary.
It was Lane who spoke. Slowly she turned toward him. "You know well enough what I mean." The implication that she intended was clear. She had addressed the remark to him, but it was a stab at Maude Euston. "I know only what you wanted me to do and I refused. Is there more still?" I wondered whether Lane could really have been involved. "Quick what DO you mean?" demanded Kennedy, authoritatively.
Mehevi shortly after rose to depart; but before he went he spoke authoritatively to one of the natives whom he addressed as Kory-Kory; and from the little I could understand of what took place, pointed him out to me as a man whose peculiar business thenceforth would be to attend upon my person.
"Won't ye set on an' let me give ye a lift home?" he asked, with entreaty in his voice. "No," she said, with finality: "I'd ruther walk." Not knowing how to answer this rebuff, he tried to cover his embarrassment by exclaiming authoritatively, "Haw, Bright!" whereupon the team slewed to the left and crowded him into the ditch. Soon he began again. "Ye might set on, Liz," he pleaded.
Elders, as well as apostles, imposed the necessary things upon the churches, and authoritatively determined the decrees. In the name of the elders, as well as of the apostles, the letters of the meeting, containing their decision, were written to the churches. And the only reason why the inspired members put themselves on an equality with others was to exhibit a pattern to after ages. Quest.
Such a man has had the good sense to see and confess that he could not be expected to know many things sufficiently well to entitle him to pronounce authoritatively upon them. He has probably given some considerable share of attention to certain subjects that are of some importance to his fellow-creatures, and thus fitted himself, with regard to them, to speak with more or less decision.
When he had gone twenty yards, he pulled steadily on one rein and, so to speak, wore his ship of the plains round till we faced the cattle again for I had simultaneously pirouetted Cleopatra on one hind foot. "Fetch 'em back, Jack," said he authoritatively. "Put 'em weare 'e got 'em, an' leab'm boide.
But she paid no attention to them, and embracing Foma authoritatively, said: "Well, make me a present of something for the song." "Very well, I will," Foma assented. "What?" "You tell me." "I'll tell you when we come to town. And if you'll give me what I like Oh, how I will love you!" "For the present?" asked Foma, smiling suspiciously. "You ought to love me anyway."
