Begad, let us be thankful," said the old fellow, with a shudder, "that we are out of the business, and leave it to those it concerns." "I hope to Heaven she'll tell him," said Pen. "Begad, she'll take her own course," said the old man. "Miss Amory is a dev'lish wide-awake girl, sir, and must play her own cards; and I'm doosid glad you are out of it doosid glad, begad. Who's this smoking?
Behaved himself very well, the little painter. Doosid good dinner Ellis gave us. But as for Highgate being aux soins with la belle Banquiere, trust me, my boy, he is upon my word, my dear, it seemed to me his thoughts went quite another way. To be sure, Lady Clara is a belle Banquiere too now. He, he, he! How could he say he had no carriage to go home in?
We are grown doosid republican. Talent ranks with birth and wealth now, begad: and a clever man with a clever wife, may take any place they please." Miss Amory did not of course in the least understand what Major Pendennis meant. Perhaps she thought over circumstances in her mind, and asked herself, could he be a negotiator for a former suitor of hers, and could he mean Pen?
Can't you see that while you are talking my Bulbo is being hung?" screamed the Princess. "By Jove! she's always right, that girl, and I'm so absent," says the King, looking at his watch again. "Ha! there go the drums! What a doosid awkward thing though!" "O, papa, you goose!
But my good lad, I'd have you to remember that you've not above five hundred a year, though, thanks to me, the world gives you credit for being a doosid deal better off; and, on my knees, I beg you, my boy, don't break into your capital. Stick to it, sir; don't speculate with it, sir; keep your land, and don't borrow on it.
"It's doosid bad form. I allow myself a 'damn' or two, nothing more. My great-grandfather, who was one of the Regency lot, was known as Cursing Egerton, but nowadays we leave that sort of thing to bargees." Quite unconsciously, John assimilated the Caterpillar's axioms. "We're not sent here at enormous expense to learn only Latin and Greek.
She even could go so far as to add: "However, I should like to show you the Prince's drawing-room they call it so because he got drunk there; it's such an honour, you see! so I hope I shall be there." "Doosid int'ristin' shall certainly come! Gwen's to go to London to get poor Torrens out of her head that's the game, isn't it?" "That sort of thing, I believe. Change of scene and so on."
Even your first-class certificates, and Sir George Stratherne, and all the Lords put together, couldn't get you out of that. And, then, the ignominy of it! Question: What on earth made you take the Fly-by-Night in to Brighton? Answer: Please, sir ax yer pardon, sir! I only wanted to spoon one o' them doosid pretty Beresford girls. 'Thomas, leave the room! said his mother, in a violent rage.
But, my good lad, I'd have you to remember that you've not above five hundred a year, though, thanks to me the world gives you credit for being a doosid deal better off; and, on my knees, I beg you, my boy, don't break into your capital: Stick to it, sir; don't speculate with it, sir; keep your land, and don't borrow on it.
If I'm fast, why, there is just the possibility of saving Prince Bulbo. It's a doosid awkward mistake, and upon my word, Hedzoff, I have the greatest mind to have you hanged too. 'Sire, I did but my duty; a soldier has but his orders. I didn't expect after forty-seven years of faithful service that my sovereign would think of putting me to a felon's death! 'A hundred thousand plagues upon you!
