"Back her up, and turn around, bo," Buck ordered his chauffeur.
"What a featherweight you are!" he laughed. "You'll dance the Thames on fire some day. Giddy, what?" Gracie lay in his arms in a collapsed condition. "You you made me do it!" she panted. "To be sure!" said Piers. "I'm a wizard. Didn't you know? I can make anybody do anything." There was a ring of triumph in his voice. Jeanie drew a deep breath and nodded from her sofa.
"Go, giddy one," retorted Felix, throwing his hat at him, "or I'll drag you into the blazing sun, and make you play another game." "Not I," replied Peterson, coolly. "Not being a salamander, I'm hardly used to your climate yet, and there is a limit even to lawn tennis;" and turning his back on Rolleston, he began to talk to Julia Featherweight.
But there was no resisting that little brown Titania, with her little head overladen with its beautiful hair, her red, delicate mouth closing firm and sweet above that little decided chin, her eyes which seemed to concentrate the light. She seemed only a featherweight when the bewildered doctor helped her to alight an undoubted sprite and creature of romance.
Castles that are builded in the air spring into being quicker than Aladdin's palace bricks and mortar, beams and stones are featherweight when handled in the clouds; every piece is so dovetailed, marked and numbered that like magic there springs before the eye the shining whole pinnacled, turreted, embattled.

"Back to back, Guy!" Wulf exclaimed, as he ran his sword through the first man who attacked him. He had scarcely spoken when Osgod ran up and joined them, and wielding the heavy axe he carried as if it had been a featherweight, struck down several of the Bretons who ventured within its swing.

"Or," interrupted Craven, "until you are comfortably married." "Comfortably married!" she cried. "Quelle horreur!" "I had no idea Americans were so romantic," said Lady Sellingworth, with just a touch of featherweight malice. "Americans! I believe the longing for romance covers both sexes and all the human race." She let her eyes go into Craven's.
So, when the fair Dora had paralysed her audience with one final bang and rattle, as if the gentleman going over the garden wall had tumbled into the cucumber-frame, Felix was loud in his expressions of delight.
