He flushed, looking up at her, spoke coaxingly, merrily, a trifle embarrassed by his own temerity, yet keen to prove his point and acquire possession of this so coveted joy. Katherine hesitated. She was tempted to put aside his question with some playful excuse. And yet, where was the use?
Grizel rocked her arms. "I am sure she does," she cried. "David, I am so glad!" He saw what her mistake was, but pretended not to know that she had made one. "Are you really glad that I love you, Grizel?" he asked. It seemed to daze her for a moment. "Not me, David," she said softly, as if correcting him. "You don't mean that it is me?" she said coaxingly. "David," she cried, "say it is not me!"
He could hear the music of her voice when she spoke coaxingly to the lion; and then again he started off to search the rooms once more, shouting her name, heedless of the bystanders, till Macrinus made so bold as to assure him that the slaughterer's report must have been false.
"Your your hair is in braids," stammered Peace, unable to put her subtle feelings into words. "It is more restful that way," the speaker sighed; then again that fleeting smile lighted up the beautiful features, and holding out her hand to the puzzled child, she said coaxingly, "Tell me about yourself. Is it really you who whistles so divinely in the garden each morning?
Then as each hung back he added coaxingly: "If each is afraid alone, come all together. I can't hurt you all." And so he coaxed the whole flock into the bag. This done, the rabbit closed the mouth of the bag, slung it over his back and came home. "Grandmother," said he, as he came to the tepee, "here is a bag full of game. Watch it while I go for willow sticks to make spits."
Hunt-Goring looked bored, and the conversation languished. Into the silence came Peggy, fairy-footed, gay of mien. She flung impulsive arms around her mother's neck and pressed a soft cheek coaxingly to hers. "Mummy, Noel is comin' to teach me to ride this morning. I may go, mayn't I?" "My darling!" said Daisy, in consternation. "He never said anything to me about it."
Why, my wife is a precious woman! Well, keep her quiet. Heaven preserve her, and send me strength to support this blessing!" "But your honor will look at the baby? Come, sir!" and Mrs. Primmins laid hold of my father's sleeve coaxingly. "Look at it, to be sure," said my father, kindly; "look at it, certainly: it is but fair to poor Mrs. Caxton, after taking so much trouble, dear soul!"
Presently somebody else stepped into the room and the bed in the other corner creaked. Silence for a while. Then the door opened, and the head of the old woman was thrust in. "Mart!" she said coaxingly; "git up thar now an' climb over inter bed with that ar stranger." That was Mart at last, over in the corner. Mart turned, grumbled, and, to my great pleasure, swore that he wouldn't.
Instead she had rested both elbows on the table and was looking at her companion with the half-pleading, half-commanding expression that both Mollie and Betty knew so well. "Promise not to say anything until I have finished?" she began coaxingly. "For you see it is to explain why I want to stay with you that made me write to ask you to make this engagement with me for this afternoon."
