But there’s one young man out yonder on whose horse I’d not gladly be sitting.” “Phui,” complained Clearchus, “you are anxious to eat Glaucon skin and bones!
"There's no use losing your nerve, Edith," I said in an exasperatingly calm manner. "Good heavens!" Edith exclaimed. "You seem to enjoy slights, but if I were in your place I shouldn't enjoy slights from my prospective mother-in-law, anyhow!" "You needn't be insulting," I remarked, arranging a sofa-pillow with care underneath my head and turning my attention to my magazine.
You might come too, and be sure to bring your good taste with you." He was alarmed by her tone. "Debenham and Freebody's! What for?" "To order mourning, of course. To have it ready, you know. A precaution, you know." She laughed. He saw that she was becoming hysterical: the special liability of the war-bride for whom the curtain has been lifted and falls exasperatingly, enragingly, too soon.

The one person present who received the discourse with almost vindictive signs of indorsement was Brother Billy Smithers, a man who had lived an exasperatingly regular life in the church for more than forty years. He sent up Amens fervid with the heat of his furious spirit at the end of each charge and condemnation.

Mr. Conne worked his cigar leisurely over to the other side of his mouth. "Believe what?" "That I'm a a spy and and a traitor." He almost whispered the words. Mr. Conne smiled exasperatingly and hit him a rap on the shoulder.
Before us lay an amber- coloured, sun-scorched plain; beyond were the foot-hills, bristling with chaparral, scrub-oaks, pines and cedars; beyond these again rose the grey peaks of the Santa Lucia range, pricking the eastern horizon. Over all hung the palpitating skies, eternally and exasperatingly blue, a-quiver with light and heat. "Somebody's coming," said Ajax.

Frederick bade the proud Milanese to answer these complaints, but in their arrogance they refused even to meet his envoys, and he resolved to punish them severely for their insolence. But the time was not yet.
Among the trees on his right, he had a good view of Harriet Floyd's party. They all seemed exasperatingly merry. Bates was making himself boyishly conspicuous, running after water, preparing lemonade, and passing it round to the others, with his silk hat poised on the back part of his head. Mrs.
Tom would shake his head exasperatingly. "Why don't you get after Ralph?" I demanded. "He doesn't antagonize Tallant, either." "Ralph's hopeless," said Tom.
