B. Second part, or Mental Barytone, my running accompaniment. C. Third part, or Mental Basso, low grumble of an importunate self-repeating idea. A. White lace, three skirts, looped with flowers, wreath of apple-blossoms, gold bracelets, diamond pin and earrings, the most delicious berthe you ever saw, white satin slippers B. Deuse take her! What a fool she is! Hear her chatter!
"It was enough to make a minister swear," said he, in apology. "No, it wasn't, uncle; the boy was a little pert, it is true; but you ought to have laughed at him, instead of getting angry. I heard the whole of it." "Pert?" said Bobby to himself. "What the deuse does she mean by that?" "Very well, you little minx; I will pay the penalty." "Come here, Master Pert," said the lady to Bobby.
"How like the ditter deuse these lawyers do scratch gravel!" exclaimed Tom Dunning, as he singled out and gave chase to Stearns and Knights, who together were making their way across the fields, in the direction of the river, as if life and death hung on their speed.
My father, after making his confession, settled himself in his chair comfortably; appearing to feel that he had begun to make reparation for the wrong. His temperament was more buoyant than mine. Selfish natures are often buoyant. "It would take a long time," he said, "and it would be a deuse of a nuisance. You make it up with Julia, and marry her, as you're bound to do.
"Will you be good enough to explain the meaning of all this, madam?" repeated Mr. Scragg. "The meaning is simply," replied Mrs. Darlington, "that I have let the front room in the second story to a gentleman and his wife for twelve dollars a week." "The deuse you have!" said Mr. Scragg, with a particular exhibition of gentlemanly indignation.
Our common names of Deuse and Old Scratch are plainly derived from these, and possibly Old Harry is a corruption of Old Hairy. By Latinization they became Satyrs. Here, at any rate, is the source of the cloven hoof. The belief in the Devil's appearing to his worshippers as a goat is very old. Possibly the fact that this animal was sacred to Thor, the god of thunder, may explain it.
I have seen the thing done; you have something of the sort in your mind; be sure to immolate yourself handsomely. Women are the deuse." "Finish your almonds, John," I said, "and go away; we must dress." He put his hand on my arm, and whispered, "Smother that light in your eyes, my girl; it is dangerous. And you have lived under your mother's eye all your life!
He has the strength of four limbs in two; and if he strikes you, it is an arm-blow plus a kick administered from the shoulder instead of the haunch, where it should have started from. Still examining him as a patient, I kept my eyes about me to search all parts of the chamber and went on with the double process, as before. What the deuse is that long case for?
What the deuse can have got into Madame S. and N., I am utterly at a loss to conjecture, and beg you not to give the remotest hint, but meet them as usual. My overtures to B. Livingston and Mr. and Mrs. R. were mere volunteers, not produced by any thing you said or wrote; but I thought it might tend to produce a certain effect in your favour.
"What the deuse are you making such a racket for?" he exclaimed in tones that thrilled to the heart of his employee; then, without waiting for an answer, he slightly glanced at the table, and asked, "Have you got through that job?"
