Marriott, cried my lord, 'pray let us have Lady Boucher's infallible balsam this instant! Had you but seen the eagerness of face, or heard the emphasis, with which he said 'infallible balsam' you must let me laugh at the recollection. One human smile must pass, and be forgiven."
'I did not do much myself, he went on, 'but I may make my traveling expenses out of this, and he showed me a what-not; a marvel! Boucher's designs executed in marquetry, and with such art! One could have gone down on one's knees before it. 'Look, sir, he said, 'I have just found this fan in a little drawer; it was locked, I had to force it open.
Elizabeth ran across from the North Hill to Boucher's Street, and up that, towards the gate, beyond which the mill stood on the bank of the Colne. Mr Ewring, the miller, was a man who kept early hours; and, as Elizabeth ran up to the gate, she saw that the lights were already out in the windows of the mill. The gate was closed.
He must try to understand her, to get at her odd point of view. She might be right occasionally, when they were in disagreement. He touched her lightly on the shoulder. "I'm afraid we ought to be getting on to the madame's," he said. Harboro would have made you think of a bear in a toy-shop when he sat down in the tiny front room of Madame Boucher's millinery establishment.
The townsfolk had applauded him, and he had achieved the great point of silencing beforehand the malignant talk to which his early career might give rise.

At another of these informal seances attended by Goosie and Mrs Antrobus, even stranger things had happened, for the Princess's hands, as they held a little preliminary conversation, began to tremble and twitch even more strongly than Colonel Boucher's, and Mrs Quantock hastily supplied her with a pencil and a quantity of sheets of foolscap paper, for this trembling and twitching implied that Reschia, an ancient Egyptian priestess, was longing to use the Princess's hand for automatic writing.
M. Boucher's hotel is, from the ground floor to garret, a continued museum, filled with pictures, mediaeval art, and Gaulish antiquities, including antediluvian flint-knives, fossil-bones, etc. If, during next summer, you should happen to be paying a visit to France, let me strongly recommend you to come to Abbeville. I am sure you would be richly rewarded."
