Lloyd replied; and as he was no very skilful arguer, his reply injured him perhaps more than my assault. Meanwhile, I had made some inquiries as to the moral character of his favourite clairvoyants. I imagined that I had learned enough to justify me in treating them as flagrant cheats, and himself as their egregious dupe. Low Town soon ranged itself, with very few exceptions, on my side.
And the egregious asses who bought for him were no better, were worse in fact, since they had all sorts of humbugging wrong reasons for admiring what old Daunt simply coveted because it belonged to some other rich man."
Beauty had been struck down by his egregious folly, and there he stood a wretch! Richard came to him: "Don't mumble on like that, Rip!" he said. "Nobody blames you." "Ah! you're very kind, Richard," interposed the wretch, moved at the face of misery he beheld. "Listen to me, Rip! I shall take her home to-night. Yes! If she's happier away from me! do you think me a brute, Ripton?
From inside information extending over a series of years Mr Bloom was rather inclined to poohpooh the suggestion as egregious balderdash for, pending that consummation devoutly to be or not to be wished for, he was fully cognisant of the fact that their neighbours across the channel, unless they were much bigger fools than he took them for, rather concealed their strength than the opposite.

"No," said I, "you egregious timber-head, he'd have spent his time limping after Homer." But as I said it only to myself, no one was insulted. "Has he learned anything?" said old Hostilities, after some more silence.
He had not spoken, but it seemed to him as if he had cried out. Then he laughed to think what an egregious ass he was. What was this yellow-haired girl in the boat to him more than any other of the millions of women with whom the world was filled? Nothing. They all were nothing to him.
I named the hen after her. Does she ever lay eggs?" The Virginian had not "troubled his haid" over the poultry. "Well, I don't believe she knows how. I think she came near being a rooster." "She's sure manly-lookin'," said the Virginian. We had walked toward the corral, and he was now scrutinizing Em'ly with interest. She was an egregious fowl.
Boltt murmured. "Some one who dislikes me...." "The chief complaint was that your people aren't real...." Henry continued, though Mr. Boltt frowned heavily. "Yes. I don't think we need discuss the matter further, Mr...." "Quinn!!" said Henry. He felt happier now that he had pricked the egregious fellow's vanity. "Silly of 'em to say that," said Lord Jasper.
