They smoked silently for a moment Verisschenzko's Calmuck face fixed and inscrutable and Denzil's debonnaire English one usually grave. "Some one told me that your friend, Madame Boleski, was having a tremendous success in London. I wish I could have got leave, I should like to have seen the whole thing." "Harietta is enjoying her luck-moment; she is in her zenith.
Louis the Debonnaire, his successor, endeavoured to remedy the growing evil, by permitting the duel only in appeals of felony, in civil cases, or issue joined in a writ of right, and in cases of the court of chivalry, or attacks upon a man's knighthood. None were exempt from these trials, but women, the sick and the maimed, and persons under fifteen or above sixty years of age.
The capitularies of Charlemagne and of Louis le Debonnaire impose severe penalties on fiery phantoms which presume to appear in the air.
There was nothing about him that morning, however to show his bad hours. He was debonnaire and smiling. "I am famishing," said Sara Lee. "And there are no eggs in this book none whatever." "Eggs!

He was not thought at that time to be cruel by nature, but was usually spoken of, in the conventional language appropriated to monarchs, as a prince "clement, benign, and debonnaire." Time was to show the justice of his claims to such honorable epithets.

First it was the gentleman adventurer, the man of family and honour, who fought as a patriot, though he was ready to take his payment in Spanish plunder. Then, within a century, his debonnaire figure had passed to make room for the buccaneers, robbers pure and simple, yet with some organized code of their own, commanded by notable chieftains, and taking in hand great concerted enterprises.
