'That's the point, replied Hugh, moving uneasily. 'You see, with Sibyl . I have suggested Davos. Some people she knows are there girls who go in for tobogganing, and have a good time. But Sibyl's afraid of the cold. I can't convince her that it's nothing to what we endure here in the beastliness of a London winter. She hates the thought of ice and snow and mountains.
"Then you don't resent my beastliness to you?" he asked. "Not permanently. Sometimes you are nice to me. But if you were ever to treat me badly when Jimmy was with me, I don't think I could ever forgive you." "I dread his coming," said Dion. "I had much better go. If you don't let me go, you may regret it."
At the same time he had had a disagreeable interview with a doctor that morning who had been insisting on Sanatorium treatment if the remaining lung was to be preserved and his life prolonged. He did not want to prolong his life, but only to avoid the beastliness of pain. It seemed to him that morphia good stuff! was going to do that for him. Why hadn't he begun it before?

Could the muster-roll of this great army be called, and they could come up from the dead, what eye could endure the reeking, festering putrefaction and beastliness! What heart could endure the groans of agony! Drunkenness: Does it not jingle the burglar's key? Does it not whet the assassin's knife? Does it not cock the highwayman's pistol? Does it not wave the incendiary's torch?
Still, you can thank my beastliness for Aunt Frances and Uncle Anthony." Veronica thought: "How funny she is about it!" She said, "It's your beastliness to poor Larry that I mind. You know what you're keeping him for." She knew; and Lawrence knew. That night he told her that if he hadn't wanted to enlist he'd be driven to it to get away from her. And she was frightened and held her tongue.
When Gulliver has returned from his last voyage, with a mind which had dwelt on the beastliness and vice of the human race as it existed in the land of the Houyhnhnms, his warped judgment is unable to discern in his countrymen any attributes but those which they seem to share with the Yahoos:
She recognized the appeal to her own pride, and ignored it. What she was thinking of was Gungadhura's beastliness his attempts to poison Yasmini his treatment of women generally his cruelty to animals in the arena his viciousness; and then, of how much more queenly if nothing else, this girl would likely be than ever Gungadhura could be kingly.
