"All right," I said. "Come on." "This is a terrible thing," he said, the moment we got out into the street. I realised that he had come away with me in order to discuss once more what he had been already discussing for hours with his sister-in-law. "We don't know who the woman is, you know," he said. "All we know is that the blackguard's gone to Paris." "I thought they got on so well."
There's always room for hope with the worst and fear with the best of us." "It's easy for you to talk," growled Mr. Baggs. "But talk don't take the place of facts. I say a blackguard's always a blackguard and defy any man to disprove it." "If you want facts, you can have them," replied Ernest. "My researches into history have made me sanguine in this respect.
Wayland was pumping his repeater into the darkness; but the clatter of hoof beats down the dry gravel bed answered the question. "It's the signal for us to get up," answered the Ranger. "I don't mind the blackguard's bad aim so much as I do the upset of that kettle. Every drop of water is spilled." "A'm thinkin' 'twas the kettle they aimed at, and not us, my boy!"
"I saw him yesterday " "You're always seeing him: you ought to be ashamed of yourself." "Don't interrupt me, please. As I was saying, I saw him laughing over the Fliegende Blätter." "But that's no sign he has a sense of humor. It rather proves that he hasn't. I'm disappointed in you, Shirley.

"The moment he is home again!" said the doctor angrily. "Yah! Coward! G'ome, g'ome!" yelled Bob, jumping up on seeing his enemy in retreat. "Come here again and I'll knock yer silly. Yah!" "Dexter!" roared the doctor; "go back and knock that young blackguard's head off. Quick! Give it him! No mercy!"
There was a good deal of truth in what he said, but he used words I didn't like; they came out of some blackguard's dictionary, so I told him to be quiet, and when he wouldn't be quiet, we sung him down with a verse out o' John Wesley's hymn-book." "All right! You are a match for Yorke, Greenwood. I will leave him to you. I am very weary. The last two days have been hard ones."
And not a single blackguard among them would dare to stab upwards, because Carlyon is immortal, as everyone knows, and it wouldn't be worth the blackguard's while to survive the deed. "They don't call him Carlyon in the mountains, but it's the same man, for all that. He is a prophet, a deity, among them. They believe in him blindly as a special messenger from Heaven.
And it was thought that he might like an opportunity of making himself known in the House. But he was simply indignant when the suggestion was made to him. "What is it to me," he said, "who paid the blackguard's expenses?" This went on for some weeks after Parliament had met, and for some days even after the article in which direct allusion was made to the Duchess.
I'll see to it" his voice rose almost to a shout "that Vane is kicked out of the service, and as to that shameless brat of Bramber's, I wish her no worse than the blackguard's company!" "One moment, Sir Howard, one moment," said Harley quietly; "there are always two sides to a case." "What do you mean, Mr. Harley?
And Sooka, who was standing by, made a low obeisance to the agent, and said that "the beach lived for well," which was his way of expressing in English that the sea was not heavy. At that moment a gun was fired from the steamer as a signal to be quick, and Bransome said, "I will go, but not in that black blackguard's boat; it need not come," and he went down to the beach.
