Wandering along the tawny sands, with the blue bright sea spreading away before her, drinking in the soft salt air, Edith grew strong in body and mind once more. Charley Stuart had passed forever out of her life driven hence by her own acts; she would be the most drivelling of idiots, the basest of traitors, to pine for him now.
"This is all your fault, you drunken little blackguard!" he said, turning savagely on the Tottie, who, now that his excitement had left him, was snivelling and drivelling in an intoxicated fashion, and calling him his preserver and his Baas in maudlin accents. "He hit me, Baas; he hit me, and I did not take the forage. He is a bad man, Baas Muller."
Austen himself was a drivelling idiot and his wife used to be a rare old girl is still, I daresay but they came of good stock, and the daughter has looks and no brains. You couldn't do better." He paused again, appeared to lose himself in the past, looked up and suddenly exclaimed: "You are ridiculous in that damned thing! Oblige me by getting out."
I hate to see a grown man make a laughing hyena of himself." "Name is Hemstetter," went on Keogh. "He's a Hello! what's the matter now?" Johnny's moccasined feet struck the floor with a thud as he wriggled out of his hammock. "Get up, you idiot," he said, sternly, "or I'll brain you with this inkstand. That's Rosine and her father. Gad! what a drivelling idiot old Patterson is!
To such miserable drivelling as this are men, of some education and standing in society, and the representatives of the free as well as the slave States, driven to bolster up the nefarious system of holding in bondage their fellow creatures! In the one case, a man robs his brother of the rightful fruits of his labour. This robbery is perpetrated coolly and deliberately through a series of years.
If this young lord does dog your footsteps, and whisper his drivelling inanities in your ears, what of it? It's a dishonourable passion. So be it; it won't last long. Some other novelty will spring up one day, and you will be released. In the mean time

I wouldn't swear that her eyes were wet with unshed tears, but I rather think they were, certainly she clasped her hands in piteous appeal. "Must you drivel, Bertie? Won't you stop it just this once? Just for tonight, to please Aunt Dahlia?" "I'm not drivelling."

Then he fancied he saw the shadow of his arms approach him fancied that he felt these shadowy arms inclose, embrace him and that he was pressed tenderly to some one's breast. A tall figure actually did stand directly before him. He lowered his eyes and remained motionless, gasping for breath, dazed, with fixed eyes, fairly drivelling with terror. Horror!
I'd sooner die," she cried passionately. "Then go and die and be damned to you!" snarled Gedge, planting himself noisily in his chair. "I've no use for khaki-struck drivelling idiots. I've no use for patriots. Bah! Damn patriots!
