But through his plaintive and homage-rendering love of a young husband was always, for the woman, discernible the arrogance of self-unyielding male. He never yielded himself: never. All his mad loving was only an effort. Afterwards, he was as devilishly unyielded as ever.
"It was the governor of the state your message offended," said Shelby, quietly. "Personally I'm not thin-skinned, as you know." "Yet, in my poor way " the Boss included the chamber in a comprehensive gesture. "Yes; in last analysis you put me here. I don't forget that." The leader shrugged. "You were always so devilishly direct, Ross," he let fall good-humoredly.
I've been through some self-punishment no! of course, you don't understand all that.... Anyway, I came in, in great fear of my life, and saw what I saw a woman tied up and devilishly tortured, a man gloating over her helplessness. Naturally, before I spoke my mind, as a man was bound to speak it, under the pain and fury of such a spectacle, I got ready to defend myself.
He only looked at her with hostile eyes. 'Speak! she said, putting her face devilishly near his. 'What? he said, almost overcome.

Nick found his match in the new model." "What new model?" inquired Fenton, arranging himself into an effective pose before the fire.
Aaron guessed that she was getting a candle to come into the parlour. He was tempted to wait and meet them and accept it all again. Devilishly tempted, he was. Then he thought of her voice, and his heart went cold. Quick as thought, he obeyed his first impulse. He felt behind the couch, on the floor where the curtains fell. Yes the bag was there. He took it at once.
The two men confronted each other helplessly, silently, and then Lans Treadwell, overcome by sudden remorse, and a kind of fear, strove to propitiate the sternness that found no expression in words.

He left the fire; he put the ax away softly in a corner; he sat down in his old place, deliberately self-abandoned to a frenzy of vindictive joy. He had found the man!
The infernal joke was being crammed devilishly down his throat, but look you he was not going to admit of any sort of swallowing motion in his gullet. It's extraordinary how he could cast upon you the spirit of his illusion. I listened as if to a tale of black magic at work upon a corpse.
