The duologue might have extended itself indefinitely if her tears had not excited him to uncontrollable fury, to that instinctive cruelty that every male is capable of under certain conditions. Without asking her permission, without uttering a word of warning, he rushed at her and seized her in his arms. He crushed her with the whole of his very considerable strength.
Nellie had announced a surprise for Denry as he entered the house, but Nellie's surprise for Denry, startling and successful though it proved, was as naught to the surprise which Mr Cotterill had in hand for Nellie, her mother, Denry, the town of Bursley, and various persons up and down the country. Mrs Cotterill came hysterically in upon the duologue between Denry and Ruth in the drawing-room.
These dreams of fancy had of late become almost habitual, for the sole reason that he had raised his hat several times to Janet, and once had shaken hands with her and said, "How d'you do, Miss Orgreave?" in response to her "How d'you do, Mr Clayhanger?" Osmond Orgreave, in whom had originated their encounter, had cut across the duologue at that point and spoilt it.
Every one's always a success with her; talking to her is as demoralizing as cracking jokes from the Bench. Mrs. O'Rane wants me to write her a duologue just as one draws a rabbit for a child . . . . That only leaves you. And you capitulated more completely even than Poynter, without the '63 port as an introduction and bond." Barbara looked at him with a dawning smile.
This last duologue is pure du Maurier. It is subtle. "Feline Amenities" again: "How kind of you to call I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!" "Oh, don't mention it. I've not been at all bored! I've been trying to imagine what I should do to make this room look comfortable if it were mine!" "Thank you so much for a most delightful evening!
Ernestine was walking about among the company, chatting to one and another and getting drinks, and he fancied that she was listening to what he said. But another duologue rose audible in another part of the room. "If the gentleman would like to show his strength there's someone ready to take him on." Hogshead Geoffroy had thrown down his glove! Silence fell upon the room.
They did, however, agree to give a short sketch entitled "Who is Who?" and the hearthrug was given up to them; and if they had not made so many corrections neither appeared to be well acquainted with her own part in the piece, but each was letter perfect in the part of the other the duologue would have been a great success. "And now," said Mrs. Mills, "let's see about refreshments. Mr.
It was Wimp. Denzil was rather dubious as to the friendship, but he preferred to take Wimp diluted. "Mortlake's upstairs," he said; "will you come up and see him?" Wimp had intended a duologue, but he made no objection, so he, too, stumbled through the nine brats to Mrs. Crowl's bedroom. It was a queer quartette.
She took little part in the conversation, seldom interrupting what was practically a duologue between her putative father and the third of their party. This last was one, whom Lanyard was sure he knew, though he could see no more than the back of Monsieur le Comte Remy de Morbihan. And he wondered with a thrill of amusement if it were possible that Roddy was on the trail of that tremendous buck.
He agreed with an alacrity that I welcomed at the time, but regret, now, because our retirement into duologue took us out of the important movement, and I missed one or two essentials of the development. The truth is that we were all overcome at the moment by an irresistible desire to appear tactful.
