There are a number of sure springs in the desert, though, where a man can be certain of a mighty pleasant camp. But it's only a camp." Douglas moistened his lips. "What can a fellow do about it?" he demanded. "Well," replied the older man, "he can make up his mind to find it devilishly interesting, even the dry marches." The young rider threw back his head.
An' Pat, he looked so devilishly gleeful thet if somethin' about Gene hedn't held me tight I'd hev got in the game my-self. It was plain to me an' others who spoke of it afterwards thet Pat Hawe hed forgotten the law an' the officer in the man an' his hate. "'I'm a-goin', an' I'm a-goin' right now! he shouted. "An' after thet any one could hev heerd a clock tick a mile off.
We enlist a lot of girls and fellows like ourselves, beautiful, attractive, young, or not so young, well connected, intellectual, athletic, and of all sorts of types, but all broke, all without visible means of subsistence. They are people welcome in country houses, but travelling third class, and devilishly perplexed about how to tip the servants, how to pay if they lose at bridge, and so forth.
"I offer you a devilishly ugly, damnably vicious brute, b'gad! I offer you a four-legged demon, an accursed beast that nobody can ever hope to ride a regular terror, curse me! Killed one groom already, will probably kill another. Now, what is your price for this lady's pet? Look him over and bid accordingly." "Twenty-five pound, sir," said the shabby man. "Thirty!" said Barnabas.
A telegram had come from a nasty little tailor in San Francisco who had discovered Hampton's retreat and who was devilishly insistent upon a small matter oh, some suits and things, you know. The whole thing totalled scarcely seven hundred dollars. He went to find Judith, to beg an advance against his wages or allowance or dividends or whatever you call it.
About the "Dutchman," "Tannhauser," and "Lohengrin" I trouble myself with disgust, and only for the reason that I know that, on account of imperfect representations, they have never been perfectly understood. If they had had their due anywhere, I should care devilishly little about things that I have outlived. Good people, do something new, new, and once more new.
The Judge is to-day separating the sheep from the goats, not according to nationality, but according to how they stand in this strife for right, for never was there a cause so divinely right as the cause of the Allies, and never a cause so devilishly wrong as that of the Germans.
With a pang at the heart she could be most merry tinkling out her laughing little lines just as martyrs could breathe a calm because, rather than spite of, they were devilishly racked. But this was no hour for tinkling lines. A manuscript returned by the last post emphasised her gloom. Kissing her father good-night, Margaret crept to her room, aching with desire to write.
I suppose there will be epidemics of all sorts and risings on a small scale.... August 28. Of late I have become devilishly suspicious and uneasy. I am constantly fancying that my trousers are horrid, and that I am writing not as I want to, and that I am giving my patients the wrong powders. It must be a special neurosis.
"Your hand is a tolerably good one so long as you are willing to sacrifice yourself, but it has its weak points, and there is one thing I could not tolerate," he said. "What is that?" Courthorne laughed wickedly. "You wish me to be explicit? Maud Barrington is devilishly pretty, but it is quite out of the question that you should ever marry her."
