And if he promised a puir, silly lass to make gude her shame, did he speak truth then? And what is that but being a liar, and a black-hearted, deceitful liar to boot?" My indignation was rising, but I strove to suppress it; indeed, I should only have afforded my tormentor a triumph by an angry reply.
I sent for the two Mazitus, with whom I could by now talk fairly well, and asked them why the slavers did these things. They shrugged their shoulders and one of them answered with a rather dreadful laugh: "Because, Chief, these Arabs, being black-hearted, kill those who can walk no more, or tie them up to die.
"It has always been my creed that when a man has allowed a woman to love him much more, made her love him, as I did he is a black-hearted knave to let a change in himself wreck her happiness. Now I am put to the test." "And the other one?" asked Rangely. "Does she know that you care for her?" "I have never said so to her. Heaven only knows how much she feels by intuition.
Perhaps it hitches because I forgot to invoke the comic muse. She must be a black-hearted jade, if she doesn't come with merry notions to a poor devil, starving in the midst of his hungry little ones." "We are past help from heathen goddesses," said the woman. "We must pray to Heaven to look down upon us and our children." The man looked up with a very bad expression on his countenance.
How such a black-hearted misanthrope as Bryant should possess an imagination teeming with beautiful poetical images astonishes me; one would as soon expect to extract drops of honey from the fangs of the rattlesnake." But this was kindly tolerance compared to his attitude towards the elder Bennett.
The meeting was very gratifying to both, but especially so to Fremont, who was fully alive to the dangers through which Gillespie had passed; for, the lieutenant was not sufficiently aware how black-hearted in their villainy and treachery this tribe, through whose country he was passing, were, as he had heretofore never dealt with them.
"If it was not known in Jamaica that she was carrying that gold, I wasn't going to tell it; for there are as many black-hearted scoundrels here as in any other part of the world!
All the romance of his hideous calling had passed in a flash, and she saw it as it was. She had no words to express her feelings of horror and revolting. In her weakness and wickedness she had torn herself out of the life of a good man to fling herself upon the bosom of this black-hearted villain. She loathed him; she loathed his very name. But more than all else she loathed herself.
"You are a rogue, my man, an impudent and a black-hearted rogue and vagabond. I have passed an hour with you. Oh! believe me, I feel myself disgraced! And you have eaten and drank at my table. But now I am sick at your presence; the day has come, and the night-bird should be off to his roost. Will you go before, or after?" "Which you please," returned the poet, rising.
A woman come to the parish an' was took sick in the house of her brother from France she was. Small-pox they said at furst. 'Twas no small-pox, but plague, got upon the seas. Alone she was in the house her brother left her alone, the black-hearted coward. The people wouldn't go near the place. The Cure was away. Alone the woman was poor soul! Who wint who wint and cared for her?
