"That I will, and with all my heart," said Deborah; "and if there are a pair of fatter fowls in Man than shall clap their wings on the table presently, your honour shall call me goose as well as parrot." She then left the apartment. "It is to such a woman as that," said Bridgenorth, looking after her significantly, "that you conceived me to have abandoned the charge of my only child!
"Discretionary!" he says, striding around with his nostrils full of wrath, and banging at doors. "Would they be boilin' us the night wid the discreetness of 'em?" With that there was an opening of a door, and there waddled in a little fat mestizo, both shorter and fatter than seemed right or natural.
Dyckman was impressed with Kedzie's beauty and paid it immediate tribute. "Oh, but you are an exquisite thing! No wonder our boy is mad about you." Kedzie's heart pranced at this, and she barely checked the giggle of triumph that bounded in her throat. But the only thing she could think of was what she dared not say: "So you're the famous Mrs. Dyckman! Why, you're fatter than momma."
"He has me there, the rogue. The truth is, gentlemen, I have not seen him in these six years. Damme, Harry, you are grown no fatter." "Servitors don't make flesh," said Harry. "And soldiers don't make money. Still; there's enough for two now, boy." "I am glad you have been fortunate," the tone suggested that though the father had quite enough for two; there would be none to spare for the son.
Then they know that Mayrah has really blown the winter away, for the birds are beginning to pair and build their nests. So they open their eyes and come out on the green earth again. And when the black fellows hear the curreequinquins singing "Goore, goore," they know that they can go out and find iguanas again, and find them fatter than when they went away with the coming of winter.
Wardle's favourite page, better known to the readers of this unvarnished history, by the distinguishing appellation of the fat boy. 'Aha! said Mr. Pickwick. 'Aha! said the fat boy. As he said it, he glanced from the cod-fish to the oyster-barrels, and chuckled joyously. He was fatter than ever. 'Well, you look rosy enough, my young friend, said Mr. Pickwick.
Woodcourt, "his being so much younger or older, or thinner or fatter, or paler or ruddier, as there being upon his face such a singular expression. I never saw so remarkable a look in a young person. One cannot say that it is all anxiety or all weariness; yet it is both, and like ungrown despair." "You do not think he is ill?" said I. No. He looked robust in body.
I hope the major is quite well, and I do hope he doesn't get any fatter, because of his poor little horse. I wish he could see how thin Uncle Hugh is sometimes I wonder I can't see through him. He walks up the steepest hills and over the heather without ever stopping. Tell father I can ride quite as well as Brian, and Uncle Hugh says I have a good seat.
The Marquis of Argenson writes in his journal: "An officer of the election has come into the village where my country-house is, and has said that the taille of the parish would be much raised this year; he had noticed that the peasants looked fatter than elsewhere, had seen hens' feathers lying about the doors, that people were living well and were comfortable, that I spent a great deal of money in the village for my household expenses, etc.
He relit the stair gas as he spoke, and we saw before us a singular-looking man, whose appearance, as well as his voice, testified to his jangled nerves. He was very fat, but had apparently at some time been much fatter, so that the skin hung about his face in loose pouches, like the cheeks of a blood-hound.
