Besides, I'm just going to have my supper. Never mind, I'll have a drop, missis, and chance it. I've never tried Chartreuse as an appetizer. At this point commenced a sanguinary conflict of wills to settle whether or not I also should indulge in green Chartreuse. I was defeated. Besides the Chartreuse, I accepted a cigar. Never before or since have I been such a buck.

"Who's going to be married? Not you." "I don't know so much about that. At all events I am in love. The sensation is delicious like an ice or a glass of Chartreuse. Real love all the others were coarse passions I feel it here, the genuine article. You would not believe that I could fall in love." "Listen to me," said Lizzie. "You wouldn't talk like that if you were in love."

He would not be bothered by going to Courts with Walpole, or if he did he stood in the corner of the ballroom and looked on while Walpole danced. What he cared for was La Grande Chartreuse, with its cliffs and pines and torrents and hanging woods. He is the forerunner of the Byronic traveller who delighted in the terrific aspects of nature and disdained mankind.

His memento mori was in his bed-chamber, and sat by him at his frugal meal. The glory of the world was stained to his vision. He was blind to the beauty of all its "pleasant pictures." No monk of Mount Athos or silent Chartreuse, no anchorite of Indian superstition, ever more completely mortified the flesh, or turned his back more decidedly upon the "good things" of this life.

She was lying on one of the benches of the boat, as on a couch, with her elbow resting upon a cushion; she was enveloped in shawls to protect her from the damp of evening, and my cloak was placed in several folds upon her feet; her face, at times in shade, was at others illumined by the last rosy tints of the sun, which seemed suspended over the dark firs of the Grande Chartreuse.

Any one found outside beyond that time will be conducted to his home 'manu militari'. If your men meet me this night they will at once go out of my way, appearing not to know me. You understand me?" "Yes, commandant." "I hold you responsible for the execution of my orders, my dear captain." "Yes, commandant." "Would you like to have a glass of chartreuse?" "With great pleasure, commandant."

Nevill drained his chartreuse. "Come, let's go and have a turn on the Terrace," he said. "It's too early to drive back to town." They lighted their cigars and filed down stairs, laughing gaily, and crossed the road. Jack was the merriest of the three. Little did he dream that he was going to meet his fate. There were not many people about town.

With their white and dimpled hands they play with a fan as cleverly as any woman, and when we have tasted different native drinks flavored with essences of flowers, they bring up as a finish a battle of Bénédictine or Chartreuse, for they appreciate the liqueurs composed by their Western colleagues.

The dog approached slowly; he sat down and gave his paw to his master, but he did not cease to growl. "There! We have had enough of you, go back to your chair. What will you take a glass of Chartreuse a cigarette?" "Thanks, both if you will let me. I see you like pretty things," he said, admiring the tall legs of the table early English and the quaint glasses into which Frank poured the liqueur.

Fenayrou had three bocks, Lucien one, and Madame another glass of chartreuse. So home to Paris. Lucien reached his house about two in the morning. "Well," asked his wife, "did you have a good day?" "Splendid," was the reply. Eleven days passed. Fenayrou paid a visit to the villa to clean it and put it in order.
