Do you think you can keep a stiff upper-lip?" Then he reached for his hammer again. But Pelle took his bearings and ran despondently to the town-hall. The punishment itself was nothing. It was almost laughable, those few strokes, laid on through his trousers, by the stick of the old gaoler; Pelle had known worse thrashings.
Why weren't they holding their place in Weston society, the place to which they were entitled by right of the Quincy grandfather, and the uncles who were judges? And in answer Margaret came despondently to the decision, "If you have children, you never have anything else!"
And this chance, which her father had speculated upon despondently as a remote contingency, was now at her feet. Was she to spurn it, and then go back to the shabby little villa near Dieppe, and expect to be praised for her filial duty? While she wavered, Brian urged every argument which a lover could bring to aid his suit.
Too bad you had all your work for nothing, Carl." "Oh! the work didn't amount to much," said the other boy, despondently; "but after hoping for such great things through our plan it's hard to feel that you're up in the air as bad as ever." "We might try it all over again some time, after Dock's kind of forgotten about this happening," suggested Tom.
Ripton only wondered the husband of such a treasure could remain apart from it. So thought Richard for a space. "But if I go, Rip," he said despondently, "if I go for a day even I shall have undone all my work with my father. She says it herself you saw it in her last letter."

"Why, if you will know my full shame it is this, Miss Dolly," he blurted out, despondently; he started to cover his face with his gaunt hand, but refrained. "I'm a scab on the face of the world.

If I wrote my beautiful biography, some cow would parody it. The world's full of cows." "Well, I'm sorry, of course," said Mabel. "You can do most incredibly foolish things.

And fry up a mess of onions and make a poultice." He put up a shaking hand before his mouth and coughed behind it, stifling the sound all he could.
"Shockin' temper, mater!" and he shook his head despondently. "That would soften under the restraining hand of affection!" reasoned his mother. "She would have to dress her hair and drop DOGS.
