Yet it is natural that you should not; you were not prepared for the offer of my my affections," and he beamed all over with benevolence, "and I can appreciate a maidenly and becoming coyness, even though it assume the form of a repellant and unreasonable anger. But take courage, my my dear girl! our Lord forbid that I should wantonly play with the delicate emotions of your heart!
Bolster, with an attempt at coyness, "I want yo' t' do a little job fer me." Shorty's hair tried to stand on end. "Jest wait a little, my good woman," said the 'Squire patronizingly.

Your mother has been very kind to me, so kind that it doesn't seem quite right to deceive her, and when I tell her that I love you, and that I want you to be my wife, I believe she will give us her blessing." Susy uttered a strange little laugh, and with an assumption of coyness, that was, however, still affected, stooped to pick a few berries from a manzanita bush.
He affected a reluctance to accept the "absolute" government, but his coyness could not deceive such experienced statesmen as the "wise old Leoliinus," or Menin, Maalzoon, Florin Thin, or Aitzma, who composed the deputation. It was obvious enough to them that it was not a King Log that had descended among them, but it was not a moment for complaining.
'Gi' me your red cloak, that's all, when yo' turn Quaker; they'll none let thee wear scarlet, so it 'll be of no use t' thee. 'I think thou'rt good enough as thou art, said Philip, tenderly at least as tenderly as he durst, for he knew by experience that it did not do to alarm her girlish coyness.
