He drank, but there was bitterness in every draught; it did not lull, much less drown the keenness of his self- upbraidings; so, hastily snatching up his hat, he left the mirth and din of the drinkers and made his way home ay, home but what a home! dark at the best of times through his own sin, but now darker than ever.
We gladly accepted his kind offer; he had made his bow, and was cruising amongst the smokers, and punch drinkers, where the blue coated masters of the English merchantmen and American skippers, were hobbing and nobbing with the gingham coated Dons, for the whole Spanish part of the community were figged out in Glasgow and Paisley ginghams; when the priest, who had attracted our attention in the morning, came up to him, and drew him aside.
Remark well what I have said, and what manner of people they be whom I do invite; for, to the end that none be deceived, I, in imitation of Lucilius, who did protest that he wrote only to his own Tarentines and Consentines, have not pierced this vessel for any else but you honest men, who are drinkers of the first edition, and gouty blades of the highest degree.
Few of us "poor islanders" are so cosmopolitan; we read foreign novels, and yet among all the brilliant persons met there we remember but a few. Most of my own foreign friends in fiction wear love-locks and large boots, have rapiers at their side which they are very ready to draw, are great trenchermen, mighty fine drinkers, and somewhat gallant in their conduct to the sex.
"All my customers are heavy drinkers; I wouldn't want to answer for what might happen if some of them saw that thing, suddenly." "Oh, well.... How about that-there little amethyst bottle, then?" "Well ... I would give you seven dollars for that," she grudged. "Y'would? Well, it's yours, then. An' how about them-there salt-cellars, an' that-there knife-box?"
Since, for one time that thou repent the having held thy tongue, Thou shalt of having spoke repent again and yet again. Fourthly, O my son, beware of drinking wine, for wine is the root of all evils and the thief of wit. Guard thyself from it, for the poet says: Wine and the drinkers of wine I have put away, And am become of those that of it mis-say.
A trivial movement of a petty pawn on the chess-board of general politics, it nevertheless was of distinct importance in several respects to the Meredith family. Apparently the call meant only a few weeks' attendance of the squire's at Burlington, in the performance of legislative duties, and Janice's going with him to make a return visit to the Drinkers at Trenton.
We care more for the reputation of William the Great than for that of William the Warling: the accuser of the Warling too was the first recorded Bigod. That is, he was the first who bore that name as a surname; for Normans in general were scoffed at by Frenchmen as bigods, bigots, never mind the spelling or the meaning and also as drinkers of beer.
And the days, weeks and months go on, but Baron remains, having seen population after population of water drinkers come and go. He was there years ago.
"It may not affect us quite so much, but personally I believe that the whole world is happier and better when champagne is cheap. It is the bottled gaiety of the nation. A nation of ginger ale drinkers would be doomed before they reached the second generation. 1900 Pommery, this, Ronnie, and I drink your health.
