Dutton was the butler. I stood contemplating the sleeping figure before me. "He must have been lying here for some time," I muttered. Sinclair started. "Probably some little while before he slept," I pursued. "I have often heard that he dotes on the firelight." "I have a notion to wake him," suggested Sinclair.
Miss Sefton does, but then her mother dotes on her." Bessie was devoutly wishing herself at home during that first quarter of an hour, but after a few minutes Mrs. Sefton's questions ceased, and she touched a silver-mounted gong beside her, and almost as though by magic the door was thrown noiselessly back, and the butler entered with the tea-tray, followed by a footman in smart livery.
The plausible lady calls on a lady who dotes upon her children, and is sitting with a little girl upon her knee, enraptured by her artless replies, and protesting that there is nothing she delights in so much as conversing with these fairies; when the other lady inquires if she has seen young Mrs.
He used the same jitney that I had started in, and it also broke down with him. Moody was his chauffeur. They made their way on foot to this village. Moody told the chief that he had the real Bula Matadi with him. The chief solemnly looked at Franck and said, "He is no Bula Matadi because he does not wear any medals."

He isn't a Robin at all, but I would feel very proud if he were a member of my family. He's just as useful as he is handsome, and that's saying a great deal. He just dotes on caterpillars. There's Mrs. Robin calling me. Good-by, Peter." With this Welcome Robin flew away and Peter once more settled himself to think over all he had learned. Peter Rabbit was dozing. Yes, sir, Peter was dozing.

'A woman of honourable feeling, nephew, would be careful to do nothing to hinder you in your career, as this putting of herself in your way most certainly will.
"Give her a second estate and money," I cried, quite out of patience, "since it is money which pays all services of that nature; but what need have you to raise her to great office, and keep her at Court? She dotes, she says, on her old chateau of Maintenon; do not deprive her of this delight. By making her lady in waiting, you would be disobliging her."
Either Yudhishthira should get back his kingdom this very day or all our enemies shall lie down on the earth slain by me!" "Drupada said, 'O mighty-armed one, it will, without doubt, be even as thou hast said! Never will Duryodhana give up the kingdom by peaceful means, and Dhritarashtra, who dotes on his son, will follow him in his wish.
"Why, last night, thin, didn't I give my " "Whist, ahagur! hould your tongue awhile, and let me go on. Thruth's best he dotes on that girl to such a degree, that if he doesn't get her, he'll never see another happy day while he's alive." "All feasthalagh, Honor that won't pass wid me; I know otherwise myself.
