And from the unhappy maid's bosom the words were gasped out: "It is verily and indeed true and worthy and deep; never was truer love . . ." "Never?" replied my aunt, looking at her enquiringly.

I should think so indeed! a hard-and-fast bargain! not easy to get out of, I can tell you! not easy to get out of! And it has cost me a pretty penny, too!" Robin Clifford glanced at him enquiringly. "How's that?" he asked "You generally make rather than spend!" Jocelyn gave a sudden loud laugh. "So I do, boy, so I do! But sometimes one has to spend to make!

He was not accustomed to waking his daughter who was always up and busy before he was, and he could hardly bear to disturb his darling's sweet sleep; but it had to be done, so he called Arsinoe by her name, shook her arm and said, as at last she sat up and looked at him enquiringly: "It is I, get up, remember what has to be done today." "Yes yes," she said yawning, "but it is so early yet!"

I stared at this unexpected gentleman for a second or two, and then, recovering my self-possession, looked enquiringly at Judith.

Hadrian did not interrupt him, but he looked him keenly and enquiringly in the face, and then said, gravely, but coolly: "It seems to me, man, that I should do well to break off my connection with you, and to give some other dealer the commissions which I proposed to entrust to you." "Caesar!" stammered Gabinius, "I really do not know " "But I do know," interrupted the Emperor.

"Sir Henry Delme?" said the rosy-cheeked clergyman, enquiringly, as he laid down his egg spoon, and turned towards him. "I trust you received my letter.

At this moment, a friendly hand was laid on his shoulder, and Mrs.

Gerda shrank from no experience. At the corner of Bouverie Street they met a painted girl out for hire, strayed for some reason into this unpropitious locality. For the moment Gerda had fallen behind and Barry seemed alone. The girl stopped in his path, looked up in his face enquiringly, and he pushed his way, not urgently, past her.
