Le Breton do tell me, what sort of person is she? 'She's very nice, and very good, and very pretty, and very clever, Arthur answered, a little constrainedly. 'I don't know that I can tell you anything more about her than that. 'Then you really like her? said Lady Hilda, warmly. 'You think her a fit wife for Mr. Le Breton, do you?
You'll be great fun, Majesty, especially for the cowboys." "Oh, will I?" she asked, constrainedly. "Yes, and in three days they will be fighting one another over you. That's going to worry me.

He knew as soon as he greeted Bernardine and her father that something out of the usual order had transpired, the old basket-maker greeted him so stiffly, Bernardine so constrainedly.
