""Narada said, 'Let him who has stolen thy stalks be one that identifies the body with the soul! Let him study the scriptures with a preceptor that is censurable! Let him chant the Vedas, offending at each step against the rules of orthoepy! Let him disregard all his seniors! ""Nabhaga said, 'Let him who has stolen thy stalks always speak false-hoods and quarrel with those that are righteous!
Aren't you ashamed to stand there and tell such ungrateful false-hoods. Ma lass, your cheek surprises me. I wonder you can look me in the face." But it would be Mavis, and not Norah, who would look him in the face and she would read the truth there. She would see it staring at her in his shifting eyes, his slack lip, and his weak frown.
In the centre of her bedroom, with her back turned to that bookcase which was filled with sugared false-hoods about life, Virginia was standing very straight while Miss Willy Whitlow knelt at her feet and sewed pale blue bows on her overskirt of white organdie.
Lavinia held out her bandaged arm. "No, it won't. What's become of your shoe?" "I took it off to break the window with the heel and afterwards lost it." Mrs. Fenton was silent. If Lavinia were telling false-hoods she told them remarkably well. She spoke without the slightest hesitation and the story certainly hung together.
Here M. P. was obliged to pause; for she had put a lock of hair between her teeth while she did something to a plait at the back. As soon as she could speak again, she went on: "You and your few crams! Have you ever thought, pray, what a state of things it would be, if we all went about telling false-hoods, and saying it didn't matter, they were merely a few little fibs? What are you laughing at?"
I could not see that this would be of much use in softening the blow; in fact, I thought all these delicate false-hoods only made the suspense worse, but I was told that I was a mere downright English country lass, with no notion of the refinements such things required with persons of sensibility. So I told them, if ever I were in trouble, all I asked of them was to let me know the worst at once.
