They all scream together in Languedocian, which, by-the-bye, is anything but melodious here when spoken by the common people. It becomes much less twangy and harsh a little farther South. How these six charmers on chairs can all listen and talk at the same time is not easy to understand. The truth is, very little listening is done in this part of the world.
By this time the second couple was ready to enter the lists: which were a young baronet, and that delicatest of charmers, the winning, tender Harriet. My gentle esquire came to acquaint me with it, and brought me back to the scene of action.
Minus these charmers, our gathering was pretty much what it had been down in the old school-room at the decorations.
Not all the sorcery of all the sorcerers; not all the necromancy of all the necromancers; not all the conjurations of all masculine conjurers; not all the magic of all male magicians; not all the charming of all the charmers, charm they never so wisely, could have induced Johannes to ever more place the slightest trust in a wizard, or repose in any wonderworker of the bearded sex the merest trifle of faith, even the most infinitesimal trituration of the homœopathicest grain.
"It was your talk of charmers that did it. I was trying to think of all I had met." "All the Rozelles and the Tobies!" said Sheila, with a hard little laugh. He gripped her hand and released it. "I have never met more than one of each," he said. "Which may be the secret of their charm. Don't class them together in your mind for a moment! Larpent's daughter may be a born charmer.
Thus the night that I was to pass with my two charmers would be my last. My lessons had taken effect, and I found they had become past mistresses in the art of pleasure. But now and again joy gave place to sadness. "We shall be wretched, sweetheart," said Hedvig, "and if you like we will come with you."
In fact, their attitude towards their would-be charmers had the character of a sauve-qui-peut. It was founded on strong personal dislike, and has lent itself to Composition in the hands of the Old Masters...." "Now I don't know what you are talking about. Answer my question and don't prevaricate. How would you set about it?" "How indeed?"
But if two or three people wanted to come, really nice ones, you know, perfect charmers, surely you and Clare wouldn't have the heart to refuse to sell them building lots?" "We are exactly a whist quartet now," said Clarence, patting his wife's shoulder. "Cheer up, dear.
And they went home unanimously declaring that the debutantes of the present day discounted, at least in dash and go, the charmers of fifty years ago." Amidst the confusion of peals of merriment which greeted the genial raconteur, Miss Cable, to whom the story did not especially appeal, whispered in awed tones: "Graydon, who on earth is that queer, spectacular looking man with your father?"
Among the crowds of charmers who throng the fashionable promenade of Broadway, scarcely an ordinary face is to be seen. I, in fact, saw more pretty faces there in one hour than in all my tour in Britain. I landed in New York without any prejudice against the Americans, and I now take leave of their commercial capital with feelings of esteem and regret.
