How flattered the old beggar'd be! Did you hear' he turned back and linked his arm in Greatorex's 'did you hear what Mrs. Heriot said about him? "So kind, so munificent so vulgar, poor soul, we couldn't know him in London but we shall meet him in heaven!" The two men went out chuckling.
I got up once and went out and hollered at him but he paid no 'tention to me. He was sitting all alone in the moonlight out there at the end of the platform, and every few minutes the poor lonely little beggar'd lift his nose and howl as if his heart was breaking. He never did it afore always slept in his kennel real quiet and canny from train to train.
If the mean beggar'd on'y square up with me, I'd let summedy else do his" "Thon's a brave wee shilty, sur-thon grey wan o' yours," broke in the contractor, who had been conversing with Thompson, whilst looking enviously at Fancy, hitched behind the wagon.
"It's my belief the beggar'd flirt with Mrs. Lee, himself, if he only got the chance" said Redmond laconically, "d'you recollect that day he picked her parcel up for her how nice she was to him?" "Eyah," said Slavin darkly, "I remimber ut! That man" he darted an accusing finger at Yorke "wud thry tu come th' Don Jewan wid anything wid a shkirrt on from coast to coast. Flirrt?

"The barge she sat in, like a burnish'd throne, Burn'd on the water the poop was beaten gold, Purple the sails, and so perfumed that The winds were love-sick with them; the oars were silver, Which to the tunes of flutes kept stroke, and made The water, which they beat, to follow faster, As amorous of their strokes.

"So help me the Promise, fair sirs," said Isaac, even more alarmed than before, "as no such sounds ever crossed my lips! Alas! I am an aged beggar'd man I fear me a childless have ruth on me, and let me go!"
Had the Elector of Saxony past the Operation of this Engine, he would never have beggar'd a Rich Electorate, to ruin a beggar'd Crown, nor sold himself for a Kingdom hardly worth any Man's taking: He would never have made himself less than he was, in hopes of being really no greater; and stept down from a Protestant Duke, and Imperial Elector, to be a Nominal Mock King with a shadow of Power, and a Name without honour, Dignity or Strength.
As thus: "Now hast them touch'd thy stretch of power, O Death; Thy brigandage hath beggar'd Love's demesne And quench'd the lamp that lit it, and the queen Of all the flowers snapped with thy ragged teeth. Hollow and meagre stares our life beneath The querulous moon, robb'd of its sovereign: Yet the report of her, her deathless mien Not thine, O churl! Not thine, thou greedy Death!
The oars were silver, Which to the tune of flutes kept stroke, and made The water which they beat to follow faster, As amorous of their strokes.
