"But, you poor little fire-eater, supposing your liking for me to be real," and no ear but hers heard his whispered words "with my knowledge of Haughton's noble nature, I should curse myself did I cause him one jealous pang." She pressed close to him as she breathed tenderly "Trust me my idol he shall never dream of my idolatry."
"If we were," answered Virginia, "something might be accomplished." "Isn't Clarence enough of a fire-eater to suit you?" asked her father. But the tents were pitched, and at that moment the young Captain was seen to hand over his horse to an orderly, and to come toward them. He was followed by George Catherwood. "Come, Jinny," cried her cousin, "let us go over to the main camp."
And, more than that, I can remember even your great-grandfather, old John Stephen Dedalus, and a fierce old fire-eater he was. Now, then! There's a memory for you! That's three generations four generations, said another of the company. Why, Johnny Cashman, you must be nearing the century. Well, I'll tell you the truth, said the little old man. I'm just twenty-seven years of age.
But, by all means. Rhodomont will provide what you require. He is the dandy of the company in real life, though a fire-eater on the stage. Hi, Rhodomont!" The young ablutionist straightened his long body from the right angle in which it had been bent over the bucket, and looked out through a foam of soapsuds.
"But the commander usually stays in the center, while his lieutenants lead on the wings." "That's true. You have precedent with you, but it wouldn't have made any difference, anyhow." "But when we fall on 'em you'll lead the center forward, and with such a man as St. Luc I fancy you'll have all the danger you crave." Rogers laughed again. "Go ahead, old fire-eater," he said.
"Do you mean they've run off and got married?" "What do you take them for? Much more like them to run off and not get married. But they haven't done that either. And, speaking of that, I believe I've gone a bit adrift. Your fire-eater, you know she is an extraordinary woman!" And Beverly gave his mellow, little humorous chuckle. "Hanged if I don't begin to think she does fancy him." "Well!"
Antinous came up to him at once and laughed as he took his hand in his own, saying, "Telemachus, my fine fire-eater, bear no more ill blood neither in word nor deed, but eat and drink with us as you used to do. The Achaeans will find you in everything a ship and a picked crew to boot so that you can set sail for Pylos at once and get news of your noble father."
"Alas, poor Jack!" "And what's more, your worship, he is pugnax, bellicosus, gladiator, a fire-eater and swash-buckler, beyond all Christian measure; a very sucking Entellus, Sir Richard, and will do to death some of her majesty's lieges erelong, if he be not wisely curbed. "Eh?
"My grandmother Livingston," he resumed, "knew Aaron Burr, and she used to say that he had an eye which no honest woman could meet without a blush. I don't know whether your fire-eater is a Launcelot, or a Galahad, but that girl's eye at dinner " "Did he blush?" I laughed. "Not that I saw. But really, old man, confound it, you know! He's no sort of husband for her.
That is, he hired the former fire-eater as a sort of handy man in the circus, Ham to be subject to Joe's direction day and night. "And let the fire-water alone!" demanded Joe. "I will! I really will!" said the old circus performer. He seemed to mean it.
