"Good day, good day," cried Miller, hastily, and glancing his eye a little curiously at our equipments. "What have you got in your box essences?" "Nein; vatches and drinkets;" setting down the box and opening it at once, for the inspection of all present. "Von't you burchase a goot vatch, dis bleasant mornin'?" "Be they ra-al gold?" asked Miller, a little doubtingly.
Eddring moved forward impetuously, feeling all the thrill of her presence; all the lambency of woman, planet-like, far-off, mysterious. Eagerly he looked, and questioningly, doubtingly, and then there came a quick content to his heart. In spite of all, in spite of what might have been, this was Miss Lady herself and none other! Sweet as of old, and ah, fit indeed for worship!

"Well!" remarked Zura doubtingly. "I can't sew with two hands, and my tongue thrown in.
"Is it not so, then?" said Godolphin, doubtingly. "No, sir: no!" "Lucilla Volktman," said Godolphin, with a colder gravity than he had yet called forth, "I claim some attention from you, some confidence, nay, some esteem; for the sake of your father for the sake of your early years, when I assisted to teach you my native tongue, and loved you as a brother.
He had heard that Lord Ongar had declared his intention of suing for a divorce; but that he supposed to be erroneous, as the two were still living under the same roof.

"Yet rocks may lose their effigies, the pyramids their inscriptions, the strong-clamped monument may tumble, and the marble bust, by time, may let the salient features fall into one indistinguishable round," she answered doubtingly. "They may;" rejoined Montigny: "but neither flowing time nor chafing circumstance can erase affection from the constant mind.
Custer maintained a stony silence, yet he would have given anything could he have accepted those pleasant fictions his father was seeking to establish in the very habiliments of truth. "I hoped you'd know how to take a joke, son!" said the little lamplighter in a hurt tone. "Were you joking, sure enough?" asked Custer doubtingly.

"My daughter," he continued, "I bring you some comfort." "Comfort?" she repeated, doubtingly. "Not now, Father," interposed Therese. "Spare her." "Spare me?" repeated Genifrede in the same tone.
"But they say that he hath promised that when man fails, the genii will fight for Granada," observed a third, doubtingly. "Allah Akbar! what is, is! what shall be, shall be!" said a fourth, with all the solemn sagacity of a prophet. Whatever their feelings, whether of awe or execration, terror or hope, each group gave way as Almamen passed, and hushed the murmurs not intended for his ear.
