He assumed a disarming levity of demeanor, smiling winningly. "There's only one way," he suggested not too archly and extended his arms. "Indeed?" She considered him with pardonable dubiety. Instantly his purpose became as adamant. "I must carry you. It's the only way." "Oh, indeed no! I couldn't impose upon you. I'm very heavy, you know " "Never mind," firmly insistent.

By and by his illusions will disappear while their gains will remain. The general impression left by Asolando is that of intellectual and imaginative vigour. The series of Bad Dreams is very striking and original in both pictorial and passionate power. Dubiety is a poem of the Indian Summer, but it has the beauty, with a touch of the pathos, proper to the time.

He was soon convinced there was a man in his close neighbourhood, moving with precaution but without art among the leaves and branches; and coming shortly to a place of advantage, he was able to observe Secundra Dass crawling briskly off with many backward glances. At this he knew not whether to laugh or cry; and his accomplices, when he had returned and reported, were in much the same dubiety.

This is Tempelhof's notion: and this, sure enough, was actually Friedrich's mode of management in the weeks following; though whether already altogether planned in his head, or only gradually planning itself, as is more likely, nobody can say. We will look a very little into the execution, concerning which there is no dubiety:

"So you've decided to throw me over," she said, with a smile.... "I don't blame you, Bonbright. She's a dear." "But who is she?" asked Mrs. Lightener. "I seem to have heard the name, but I don't remember meeting her." "She was my secretary," said Bonbright. "She's a stenographer in Mr. Lightener's office now." "Oh," said Mrs. Lightener, and there was dubiety in her voice.

Bright as the Roman moonlight was, it would not show the front of the wall, or rock, so well as I should have liked to see it, but left it pretty much in the same degree of dubiety and half-knowledge in which the antiquarians leave most of the Roman ruins.

Have you decided to come into the business, Mr. Surtaine?" "Do you think I'd make a valuable employee, Miss Milly?" he bantered. But to Milly Neal the subject of the Certina factory admitted of no jocularity. She took him under advisement with a grave and quaint dubiety. "Have you ever worked?" "Oh, yes; I'm not wholly a loafer." "For a living, I mean." "Unfortunately I've never had to."

The soldier's pay is in the highest degree exiguous; not above three halfpence a day, for a common foot-soldier, in addition to what rations he has: but it is found adequate to its purpose, too; supports the soldier in sound health, vigorously fit for his work; into which points his Majesty looks with his own eyes, and will admit no dubiety.

He saw only the company of every night; for even in the off-season there are always enough English-speaking people in Paris to make it possible for L'Abbaye Theleme to keep open with profit: the inevitable assortment of respectable married couples with friends, the men chafing and wondering if possibly all this might seem less unattractive were they foot-loose and fancy-free, the women contriving to appear at ease with varying degrees of success, but one and all flushed with dubiety; the sprinkling of demi-mondaines not in the least concerned about their social status; the handful of people who, having brought their fun with them, were having the good time they would have had anywhere; the scattering of plain drunks in evening dress.... Nowhere a face that Lanyard recognized definitely: no Mr.

No, not even her aunt, for at such rare times of absence from home as she had occasion to write to Miss Joliffe, "My dear Aunt Euphemia" was the invocation. It was curious that this same word "Dearest" had occasioned Westray also considerable thought and dubiety. Should he call her "Dearest Anastasia," or "Dear Miss Joliffe"? The first sounded too forward, the second too formal.
