Towards the close of his first year's residence in Madrid, Ulrich spoke Spanish with tolerable fluency, and could easily understand his fellow-pupils; nay, he had even begun to study Italian. Sophonisba Anguisciola still spent all her leisure hours in the studio, painting or conversing with Moor.
His first two years at Annan Academy were among the most miserable in his life, from his being bullied by some of his fellow-pupils, whom he describes as "coarse, unguided, tyrannous cubs." But he "revolted against them, and gave them shake for shake."
The expression was cold and haughty; and for this reason she had received the appellations of "Minerva" and "Juno," such being considered by her fellow-pupils as singularly appropriate.
So Rosamund and Irene are both members of the school, and I desire you, Lucy, as my daughter, not to repeat to any of your fellow-pupils the stories you may have heard in the past with regard to Irene. I desire you to be kind to her, and if you cannot be friends with her, at least to leave her alone. You have your own friends, Laura Everett"
The parents of Miss Crewe's fellow-pupils are not likely to refuse her invitations to visit her at her guardian's house. Mr. Carrisford will attend to that." It must be confessed that even Miss Minchin flinched. This was worse than the eccentric bachelor uncle who might have a peppery temper and be easily offended at the treatment of his niece.
He proceeds to do as much work as will steer him safely between the, ah I may say, the Scylla of punishment and the Charybdis of being considered what my, er fellow-pupils euphoniously term a swot. That, I think, is all this morning. Good day. Pray do not trouble to rise.

And reproached by their preceptor, they were all ordered, one after another, to stand apart." "Vaisampayana said, 'When everyone had failed, Drona smilingly called Arjuna and said unto him, 'By thee the aim must be shot; therefore, turn thy eyes to it.
But it was satisfactory to hear that his present fellow-pupils did not go in for that sort of thing, and Constance felt sure that her uncle and aunt would be pleased with him and think him much improved. 'I am quite convinced, said Ida Morton, 'it is quite plain why we are not invited. 'My dear, you see what your aunt says; that Mrs.
This obligation to classify and systematize my ideas in view of lessons to be given to fellow-pupils of the same age as myself decided my vocation. My scheme of teaching was from that moment determined upon; and whatever I have since accomplished in the way of philology has its origin in the humble lecture which through the kindness of my masters was intrusted to me.
Special stress was laid upon spelling, and I am inclined to think that every one of my fellow-pupils learned to spell more correctly than some gentlemen and ladies do in our days. Our teachers were always men in winter and women in summer. I remember some of the men very well, but one of them especially.
