"And are you bound to lose them if you marry?" queried Ann, steering her way deftly through the traffic and bringing the two-seater to a standstill as the stream of cars temporarily checked. "No. But you run an excellent chance of it. Do you suppose if I'd married Sir Philip thirty years ago he'd be pelting me with roses now?" enjoyably. "Of course not. It'd be the tradesmen's books, most likely!"
"Then I hope you have succeeded. I see it is quite hopeless to expect any sort of a complimentary speech from you." "Quite; though I don't mind admitting I have been very enjoyably entertained as well." "That is something, anyhow. And now I suppose you are going straight off home to dress, and dine with some one else, and forget about me?" "I don't suppose I shall forget you.
The field in which he alighted was a sloping one and he ramped down it very enjoyably to himself, with all the weight of his sixteen hands and a half concentrated in his head, when suddenly a tall grassy bank confronted him, with, as he perceived with horror, a ditch in front of it.
They were an orgy and a prophecy, these flowers. They were an outburst of unnecessary loveliness in a house that did not dare open its doors to anything but necessities; and they showed, since they blossomed here though the rain roared down outside, that the world was not after all an immutably unpleasant place, and could be turned upside down very enjoyably if one had the money to buy things.
Certainly his eye was not insane. Its bluish-gray was twinkling enjoyably into hers. "You exasperated him with that whistle. It was a deadly insult to his desperado pride. You are marked don't you see, marked?" she persisted. "And I brought it on! I am responsible!" He shook his head in a denial so unmoved by her appeal that she was sure he would send Job into an apoplectic frenzy.
There is a great deal of building being done. Possibly Gus could turn himself in some way to get the lumber for the boy." "And gif the knife, too?" "The work ought to be worth it. May I talk to Gus?" "To be sure," giggling enjoyably, for the whole thing seemed a huge joke to the French girl, and even to Joyce it began to seem rather a complicated affair.
Carré laughed enjoyably. He began to take more interest in his surroundings for their own sakes. His thoughts of Margaret, with their after-glow of tender memory, were like the soft sad haze which falls on Guernsey when the sun has sunk and left behind it, in the upper sky, its slowly dying fires of dull red amber and gold.
At length, having noted the details of all the clothes in range, Ina's isolation palled upon her and she set herself to take Ninian's attention. She therefore talked with him about himself. "Curious you've never married, Nin," she said. "Don't say it like that," he begged. "I might yet." Ina laughed enjoyably. "Yes, you might!" she met this.
There was a full breakfast table the next morning, for the young visitors determined to fall into the ways of the family as much as possible, so decided to be "early birds" along with the rest. During the meal, Mr. McDonald suggested the various ways they might pass the day enjoyably; but when he had exhausted the resources of pleasure that occurred to his mind, Dexie smilingly said,
I thought of cool little Silverquay with the nice clean sea washing its doorstep every morning and I bolted. Madame Antoinette has probably been, wringing her hands over my half-completed garments ever since!" She was immensely entertained when Ann acquainted her with the identity of the man who had come to her assistance on the night of the Venetian fete, and chuckled enjoyably. "Poor man!
