"Christopher Colombo the great Christopher Colombo. Well, what did he do?" "Discover America! discover America, Oh, ze devil!" "Discover America. No that statement will hardly wash. We are just from America ourselves. We heard nothing about it. Christopher Colombo pleasant name is is he dead?" "Oh, corpo di Baccho! three hundred year!" "What did he die of?" "I do not know! I can not tell."
"Corpo di Baccho," exclaimed the student, stooping to pick up the precious tools; "have you been amputating your own head, or is it I who am dreaming?" "Ah," murmured Strand, lifting a large, strange gaze upon his friend, "is it you?" "Who else should it be? I come to call you to breakfast." "I wonder what is up between Strand and Augusta?" said Arnfinn to his cousin Inga.
It was always clever, but often artificial; like the composition of a Renaissance painter who inserts his bel corpo ignudo to catch the eye. In "Fors," however, the web is of a piece, all sparkling with the same life; though as it is gradually unwound from the loom it is hard to judge the design. That can only be done when it is reviewed as a whole.
"Where, in the loftiest houses of Europe, find a husband worthy of such a prize?" "You forget that I am still an exile, she still dowerless. You forget that I am pursued by Peschiera; that I would rather see her a beggar's wife than Pah, the very thought maddens me, it is so foul. Corpo di Bacco! I have been glad to find her a husband already." "Already! Then that young man spoke truly?"
On one occasion, during an electrical storm off New Guinea, a number of corposants appeared on the yards of his vessel, which was manned by Polynesians and some Portuguese. One of the latter was so terrified at the ghastly corpo santo that he fell on his knees and held a small leaden crucifix, which he wore on his neck, to his lips.
"'Boccha chiusa, ed occhio aperto Non fece mai nissun deserto. "The closed mouth and the open eye, etc." "That's very true," said the doctor, much struck. "Very true. 'In boccha chiusa non c'entrano mosche. One can't swallow flies if one keeps one's mouth shut. /Corpo di Bacco!/ that's very true indeed."
Riccabocca, after waiting some moments in silence, as if expecting Randal to speak, said, with affected carelessness, "So you think that you have news that might affect me? Corpo di Bacco! I am curious to learn what?" "I may be mistaken that depends on your answer to one question. Do you know the Count of Peschiera?" Riccabocca winced, and turned pale.
"There are philosophers who pretend, good Vito, that nothing that we see around us actually has an existence: that we fancy everything; fancy that this is a sea, called the Mediterranean; fancy this is a ship yonder is the land; fancy that we live; and even fancy death." "Corpo di Bacco!
"Come right out, Brendon," he said. "The game's up for to-night as you've heard. Doria has seen Bob, and he's frightened the poor beggar off apparently. Anyway he's not coming." Mark emerged and Giuseppe gazed in astonishment. His mind evidently ran backward and his face flushed with annoyance. "Corpo di Bacco!" he swore. "Then you heard my confidences. You are a sneak!"
Only two persons remained behind. "Pietro," said one of them to the other, "are you anxious to swallow water?" "Corpo di Dio, no!" "How do you expect to save yourself?" "Oh, there is still a remedy!" The men exchanged knowing looks, and then one of them whispered: "Be careful; do not let the captain hear of it; he might hinder us." "He would be foolish enough to do so.
