Pellew felt interested in Miss Dickenson's bygone romances, implied in the slight shade of sentiment in her voice wondered in fact how the doose this woman had missed her market; this was the expression his internal soliloquy used.
I'm a domestic character, Miss Amory my habits are simple and when I'm pleased I'm generally in a good-humour, ain't I, Pen? that jelly, if you please not that one, the other with the cherries inside. How the doose do they get those cherries inside the jellies?" In this way the artless youth prattled on: and Miss Amory listened to him with inexhaustible good-humour.
"What the DOOSE is the matter?" was his first exclamation, and, after half-an-hour's cogitation, only had arrived at the same point, "What the DOOSE is the matter?" Then it flashed across him, what did she mean by "ask Lee?" Had she any meaning in it, or was it nonsense? There was an easy solution for it; namely, TO ask Lee. And so arising he went across the yard to the kitchen.
"Who the doose reads this kind of thing?" he thought to himself when he heard of the bargain which Pen had made. "I never read your novels and rubbish. Except Paul de Kock, who certainly makes me laugh, I don't think I've looked into a book of the sort these thirty years. Gad! Pen's a lucky fellow. I should think he might write one of these in a month now, say a month, that's twelve in a year.
"To be parted from you," said the old major, with a sneer; "you know she won't live with you again." "But why can't Lady C. live abroad, or at Bath, or at Tunbridge, or at the doose, and I go on here?" Clavering continued. "I like being here better than abroad, and I like being in Parliament. It's dev'lish convenient being in Parliament.
"What's the row about?" asked Mr. Foker, rather puzzled. "I suppose Miss Amory means 'Walter Lorraine," said the major, looking knowing, and nodding at Pen. "I suppose so, sir. There was a famous review in the Pall Mall this morning. It was Warrington's doing, though, and I must not be too proud." "A review in Pall Mall? Walter Lorraine? What the doose do you mean?" Foker asked.
Pen cried out, in high spirits. "Art thou of good counsel? Wilt thou swear? Wilt thou be mum, or wilt thou preach? Wilt thou be silent and hear, or wilt thou speak and die?" And as he spoke, flinging himself into an absurd theatrical attitude, the men in the cabstand in Piccadilly wondered and grinned at the antics of the two young swells. "What the doose are you driving at?"
I'll put all the parcels on the back veranda, and yuz can go in at woncest or yuz'll be late fer yer tea." "Joe, the harness broke and had to be tied up. That is what kept me so late," I explained. "The harness broke!" he exclaimed. "How the doose is that! Broke here in the trace, and that strap! Well, I'll be hanged! I thought them straps couldn't break only onder a tremenjous strain.
Briggs saw her take them, asked no questions, told no stories; but I believe quite sympathised with her on this matter, and so would many another honest woman. And the diamonds "Where the doose did you get the diamonds, Becky?" said her husband, admiring some jewels which he had never seen before and which sparkled in her ears and on her neck with brilliance and profusion.
I am going to swim over to the Pilot Station, and catch some of those goats. I can get across on the stuffed skin, but I must float them back on the reeds." "How the doose do you mean to catch 'em?" asked Frere, wiping the sweat from his brow. The convict motioned to him to approach. He did so, and saw that his companion was cleaning the intestines of the goat.
