I do not know that ever I heard him speak so straight to people's hearts; the sound of his voice was like song. "What? will he have been describing me?" she cried. "Little else of it since I ever came out of France!" says he, "forby a bit of speciment one night in Scotland in a shaw of wood by Silvermills. But cheer up, my dear! ye're bonnier than what he said.
My kinsman did not observe the loss, but, once more throwing back his head, drained the remainder to the dregs. Then, with a loud laugh, he cast the bottle forth among the Merry Men, who seemed to leap up, shouting to receive it. 'Ha'e, bairns! he cried, 'there's your han'sel. Ye'll get bonnier nor that, or morning.
All these high-born representatives of German sovereigns and states hastened to do homage to the French lady and to commend themselves to the benevolence and favor of the victorious general of the republic. But the doors of the general and of his wife were as difficult to open as those of the French ambassadors, Bonnier, Jean Debry, and Roberjot.
"She looked like an evil demon predicting our future!" murmured Roberjot. "She will fulfil her word; she will try to assassinate us," said Bonnier. "Did you not see it? Her eyes were moist; no tears were glistening in them, however, only the venom she will discharge at us. Let us be on our guard!"
This agency is evidently without any effect, for as we have seen when dealing with the experiments of Nageli, Bonnier and others, each single individual may change its habits and its aspect in response to transplantation. The climate has an exceedingly great influence on each individual, but the continuance of this influence is without permanent result.
"I'm as tall as either of you, now," she said; "and we girls are all of a size, as near as can be, mother and all; and we'll just wear the dresses once more, you see, and then put them right into Barbara's trunk. They'll be all the bonnier and luckier for her, I know. We can get others any time." We laughed at her at first; but we came round afterward to think that it was a good plan.
Whereat David waved his hands in a sort of contemptuous wonder. 'If it were the Duchess of York now! he said. 'She is far bonnier and even prouder, gin that be what tak's your fancy! And as to our Jeanie, they are all cockering her up till she'll no be content with a king. I doot me if the Paip himself wad be good enough for her!
Gaston," he burst out, "she is a lovely maid saw you ever a bonnier?" "Indeed she is very beautiful," I answered, laughing to myself at the thought of how little he dreamt that it was of Yvonne St. Albaret de Canaples that he spoke, and not minded for the while to enlighten him. "If she be as kind and gentle as she is beautiful, Gaston, well Uncle Giulio's plans are likely to suffer shipwreck.
It can be a better world. It can be a bonnier world than any of us have ever dreamed of. Dare I say that, ye'll be asking me, wi' the tears of the widow and the orphan still flowing fresh, wi' the groans of those that ha' suffered still i' our ears? Aye, I dare say it. And I'll be proving it, tae, if ye'll ha' patience wi' me.
Champagne has a bonnier look but it's too enterprising. I might get into trouble some time. And he's done so to this day. Oh, I've seen him take a sip or two of champagne to some one's health, or as much Scotch whiskey in a tumbler of water as you could dribble from a medium-boilered fountain pen. But that's a high riot with him.
