But these are not a protection . . . to them, when needed; to the country.
"Was it a near thing?" "About as near as I care about it threw up the dust between my legs." The man called Joseph grinned. Nature had given him liberally of the wherewithal for indulgence in that relaxation, and Durnovo smiled rather constrainedly.

'T was Ella's, and Ella has to keep running in for things she's left, and she says it's the same with the others. You see, I've got Ella's room, and Ella's got Tom's, and Tom's got Bert's. It's a regular 'house that Jack built' and I'm the'Jack'!" "I see," laughed Mary constrainedly.

It didn't occur to me that you two would.
"Did you ever make up Mrs. Inglethorp's medicines?" A slight flush rose in her face, as she answered rather constrainedly: "No." "Only her powders?" The flush deepened as Cynthia replied: "Oh, yes, I did make up some sleeping powders for her once." "These?" Poirot produced the empty box which had contained powders. She nodded. "Can you tell me what they were? Sulphonal? Veronal?"
But supposing you did meet with priests at the palace, what then?" "Nothing," said Nanina, constrainedly. She turned pale, and walked away as she spoke.
