Travis agreed emphatically and then was annoyed at the broadening of Jil-Lee's smile. Abruptly he changed the subject. "Manulito is setting the booby trap in the ship." "That is well. He and Eskelta will remain here, and you with them." "Not so! We must go to the towers " Travis protested. "I thought," Jil-Lee cut in, "that you believed the weapons of the old ones too dangerous for us to use."
Pelle did not really want to go on searching, but he could not very well leave off before the other. "Well, well!" said the shipowner at last, "you may as well whistle for those twenty-five ore. But what a booby you are!" And he moved on, and Pelle looked after him for a long while before putting his hand into his own pocket.
She thanked him very kindly, and said, "She would acquaint Joseph with the offer, which he would certainly be glad to accept; for that Lady Booby was angry with them both; though she did not know either had done anything to offend her, but imputed it to Madam Slipslop, who had always been her enemy."
It was a great doubt whether the latter would not fly away, however, before Tommy got him. "What is it you are looking at?" asked Sills, just then coming on deck. "A booby, lad," answered the doctor, to whom he spoke regarding him calmly; whereat Broom and Waller laughed, but Sills only said: "See now, what's that?" and looked up at the yard-arm whereon the bird sat perched.
If I lived alone, for instance, like poor Horley, or with a disagreeable family like that of Jan Smit by the way, that reminds me that we have heard news of the three runaways, Ruyter, Jemalee, and Booby." "Oh! I'm so glad," cried Bertha, her fair face brightening up with pleasure, "for I am very fond of Ruyter.
Free subsistence and quarters. Here at Serene, at Tycho Station or at a dozen other expanding sites..." Charlie Reynolds sat with Frank Nelsen while he listened. "The lady has a swell voice," said Charlie. "Otherwise, it sounds good, too. But I'm one that's going farther. To Venus just being explored. All fresh, and no man-made booby traps, at least.
"Why, he's actually blubbering, the great big booby," said Jehosophat, "shame!" Now there's no word in the language in which boys and girls join more readily than this same word "Shame." So they all took up the chorus, everybody on that hill. You know that chorus, and your parents know it, and your grandparents, and great grandparents, too, sang it, long, long before you were born.
"Yes," I replied, obstinately, "because you say to yourself: 'This is a booby whom I shall persuade to do anything I wish, by telling him that I love him; he will believe it, and I will take him away to be hanged. Come; there is only one word which will serve if you love me." She looked at me with an agonized air. I sought to press my lips to hers whenever her head was not turned away.
"I can commend him," says Adams: "he is a brave lad; and it becomes any man to be the champion of the innocent; and he must be the basest coward who would not vindicate a woman with whom he is on the brink of marriage." "Sir," says Mr Booby, "my brother is not a proper match for such a young woman as this."
As for Marius, "that booby of a lawyer," who had probably become frightened, and whose name Javert had forgotten, Javert attached very little importance to him. Moreover, a lawyer can be hunted up at any time. But was he a lawyer after all? The investigation had begun.
