I could perceive that the announcement of the marriage was quite new to him; and its effect was as that of a sudden blow. Of course, equally unknown to him had been the name of the husband; though from the exclamatory phrase that followed, he had no doubt had his conjectures. "O God!" he exclaimed, "I thort so the very man to a' done it. Lord ha' mercy on her!"

"France amuses me, England commands my respect, but Russia takes my breath away," said Deulin, elbowing his way through the medley of many races. On all sides one heard different languages German, the sing-song Russian the odd, exclamatory tongue which three emperors cannot kill. "And Germany?" inquired Cartoner, in his low, curt voice. "Bores me, my friend."

"I say, you mustn't whistle on Sunday, papa!" cries the artless young gown-boy from Grey Friars; and then suggested that it was three hours from breakfast, and he should like to finish Theo's cheese-cake. "Oh, you greedy child!" cries Theo. But here, hearing a little exclamatory noise outside, she ran out of the room, closing the door behind her. And we will not pursue her.

I had been for some time gazing upon the ground, in a sort of abstraction, looking: at the snow-white efflorescence, and listening to the crunching of my horse's hoofs through its icy incrustation. These exclamatory phrases caused me to raise my eyes. The sight that met them was one that made me rein up with a sudden jerk.

He made just an exclamatory protest, such as he might have made had a woman applied the term to him. Grey turned from him slowly to Monmouth. "It might be well," said he, in his turn controlling himself at last, "to place Mr. Wilding under arrest." Mr. Wilding's manner quickened on the instant from passive to active anger. "Upon what charge, sir?" he demanded sharply.

She saw one glimpse of the bloody face as it fell out of the circle of light into the shadows that hung about the ground, and the little cry that drove its way between her teeth was drowned by Traill's exclamatory delight. "Good left!" he called out excitedly; "follow it up, man! Follow it up! Don't let him forget it!"

He almost saw it print itself before his very eyes, like a page from one of those beautiful little volumes made by Hachette or by Lemerre those sprightly, broken pages, where a paragraph consists of a line or even a word, where brief exclamatory phrases abound, and where short rows of dots leave the reader to complete the meaning at his own pleasure.

Chump; and immediately discharged an exclamatory narrative of her recent troubles, and the breach between herself and Brookfield, at Braintop's ears. This done, she told him that he was there to write the reply to the letters of the ladies, in her name. "Begin," she said. "Ye've got head enough to guess my feelin's. I'm invited, and I won't go till I'm fetched. But don't say that.

He would see Miss Beltham and fathom the plot; angel, he called her, and was absurdly exclamatory, but in dire earnest. He must have had the appearance of a drunken man to persons observing him from the Grange windows. My father was refused admission at the hall-doors. The butler, the brute Sillabin, withstood me impassively. Whose orders had he? Miss Ilchester's.

The room was always shown to exclamatory visitors, who told Mr. Pemberton that he was almost too good. But in secret conclaves at lunch the girls called the room "the junk-shop," and said that they would rather go out and sit on the curb. Una herself took one look and one smell at the room, and never went near it again. But even had it been enticing, she would not have frequented it.
