I have lots of chemises, nightgowns, pocket- handkerchiefs, and pockets to make; besides clothes to repair. I have been, every week since I came home, expecting to see Branwell, and he has never been able to get over yet. We fully expect him, however, next Saturday. Under these circumstances how can I go visiting? You tantalize me to death with talking of conversations by the fireside.
Part of it was ordered at Rouen, and she made herself chemises and nightcaps after fashion-plates that she borrowed. When Charles visited the farmer, the preparations for the wedding were talked over; they wondered in what room they should have dinner; they dreamed of the number of dishes that would be wanted, and what should be entrees.
I want some fine linen for twenty-four chemises, some dimity for stays and petticoats, some muslin, some cambric for pocket-handkerchiefs, and many other articles which I should be very glad to find in your shop, for I am a stranger here, and God knows in what hands I am going to trust myself!" "You will be in honest ones, if you will give me your confidence."
After it was over I put on their chemises and took off their breeches with all the decency imaginable, and after spending a few minutes in the next room they came and sat down on my knee of their own accord.
Make love indeed the atomy the shrimp the dried-up stock-fish. Love, quotha and refuse to hang a cur like that. O dear! O dear! get me something to put on. One of my best chemises all in rags and his nasty teeth in my leg in two places, Babette. Well, well, Mr Vanslyperken, we shall see I don't care for their custom.
Each man was allowed for summer two pairs of pants and two shirts, but no coat. The women had two dresses and two chemises each for summer. For winter the men had each two pairs of pants, one coat, one hat and one pair of coarse shoes. These shoes before being worn had to be greased with tallow, with a little tar in it.
The wife of the jailer, at the queen's request, gives her one of her own chemises, and Marie Antoinette puts it on. Then she clothes herself with the garments which she has worn during her days of trial before the tribunal of the revolution, only over the black woollen dress, which she has often mended and patched with her own hand, she puts on a mantle of white needlework.
Having enjoyed the effect which he expected to produce, he said that he should perhaps visit the Princess; that she was a good person, and pious. "A truly great lady," he added, "who does not show her magnificence in gowns and hats. She wears her chemises for six weeks, and sometimes longer. The gentlemen of her train have seen her wear very dirty white stockings, which fell around her heels.
They had short hair dyed black, white coarse linen chemises with large sleeves, embroidered zouaves, white skirts with front and back aprons lavishly embroidered, striped trousers, and stockings knitted on great diagonal patterns. One of them told Suma that their village was in possession of Essad Pacha, that all their husbands had fled, and were still fighting in the hills.
Anne went with them, and it was a pretty sight, the four young women in white chemises that clung to them when wet, and the three lovely children little white nudities with bright brown hair scampering over the rocks, splashing each other in the pools, or lying about on warm sunny slabs, resting and chattering.
