While the rest of his proud countrymen stood aloof, with eyes of silent scorn, from the homely nuncius, Mallet approached him with courteous bearing, and said in Saxon: "May I crave to know the issue of thy message from the reb that is from the doughty Earl?" "I wait to learn it," said Vebba, bluffly. "They heard thee throughout, then?" "Throughout."
Wright arose and, departing with a suddenness that was almost startling, exploded harmlessly in front of the barber's, next door but one. Then with lagging steps he went in search of the shabbiest cab and oldest horse he could find. "Thankee, my boy," said Mr. Kemp, bluffly, as he helped Mrs. Bradshaw in and stood with his foot on the step.
This plumping out of what was at the back of their minds produced in Mr. Brownbee and his colleagues a sort of chemical disturbance. They coughed, moved their feet, and turned away their eyes, till the one who had not risen, a solicitor named Ventnor, said bluffly: "Well, put it that way if you like." Old Heythorp's little deep eyes twinkled.
It was the sign in a way that she was strictly business and all personal confidences were taboo, but Rimrock did not take the hint. It annoyed him, some way, that drum over her ear and the transmitter hung on her breast, for when he had seen her the evening before all these things had been set aside. "What? Still wearing that ear-thing?" he demanded bluffly and she flushed and drew her lips tight.
While Mabel went to draw the liquor, Tristram fixed his eyes on Harry, whose features were now fully revealed by the light of the fire. "Why do you look at me so hard, friend?" demanded Harry bluffly. "I have seen some one very like you, master," replied Tristram, "and one whom it is no light honour to resemble." "You mean the king," returned Harry, laughing.
"Well, captain," cried the King bluffly, "what have you to report? You have captured the French pigeons which escaped their cage, and brought them back with all that they took away?" "No, Sire," said the captain shortly.
The friendly demeanour of the great man cheered the prisoner and he answered bluffly: "My good conscience sustains me." Villon's demeanour was still amicable as he put his next question in a voice that came only to Jeban's ears. "I am glad to hear it. How did Thevenin Pensete come to his death?"
Folks said then the match wouldn't come to good; and now we find they spoke the truth, for it is likely to end in a divorce." "Not so loud, mine host!" cried the foremost attendant; "here comes our young master, the Earl of Surrey." "Well, I care not," replied the host bluffly. "I've spoken no treason.
"Alive, but not better," answered Basil bluffly; "a hurt which I should have forgotten in three days has eaten into his very flesh and bone; there must be devilry in it, and I am on my way to fetch priest Jovan from Nariako to exorcise him."
Then he bluffly alleged an errand in the PLAGWITZERSTRASSE, and went off in an opposite direction to that which his companion had to take. As soon as Furst was out of sight, he turned into the path that led to the woods. Overhead, the sky was a monotonous grey expanse, and a soft, moist wind drove in gusts, before which, on the open meadow-land, he bent his head.
