"Hope it'll flare-up like the other," said Pilbury. "It ought to," said Philpot. "Ought it? Hurrah! I say, Cusack, what a jolly clever beggar old Phil is, isn't he?" "Rather," said the admiring Cusack, perching himself on the side of the table and swinging his legs to pass the time. "Oh," said Philpot, condescendingly, "it only wants a little practice."
He might grow tired of eating Irish dirt; he might pluck up spirit enough to tell these bullies who are jockeying him, and through him the British Empire, to go to the Divil. Then we'd have a fine flare-up. Virtuous indignation and patriotic virtue to the fore! The Irish members will rush over to Ireland, and great demonstrations will be the order of the day.
It was quite dark now, the hull of the ship looming faintly above us, a big black shadow, and the water was without a glimmer near, save where, just ahead, the light of a flare-up, which the pirates had kindled on the forecastle, shone out over the sea there, besides illuminating the island beach where a number of black figures could be seen moving about opening some casks, which, Ching Wang explained to me, he had assisted in getting up from the forehold, so as to distract their attention from us for awhile; for, knowing that these casks contained salt pork, and being acquainted with the predilections of his countrymen for this dainty, he was certain they would have an orgy before proceeding to further hostilities.
They trod then afresh their ancient paths; and though it pressed upon her hatefully that he must have taken her abruptness for a smothered shock, the flare-up of her old feeling at the breath of his news, she had still to see herself condemned to allow him this, condemned really to encourage him in the mistake of believing her suspicious of feminine spite and doubtful of Miss Lindeck's zeal.
Harlan spoke lowly; his eyes were keenly watchful. This flare-up on Haydon's part was merely a phase of his confused mental condition. He saw that Haydon did not mean to use his gun that he intended to ignore it, no doubt planning to regain his authority when the men of the outfit returned when he might enlist the support of some of them. "Woodward's here eh?" laughed Haydon.
I guess there will be more than Amy Carringford who will be sorry that they ever went to your old party. Now, stop yelling. Here comes Miss Marble." The flare-up was only the beginning of a very unhappy time at school for Amy Carringford. Nor could Janice escape being unhappy, too, with her new friend.
Even the varying "expressions" assumed by Sardanapalus failed to arouse his enthusiasm. He reproached himself for this, for poor Buskin rolled his eyes and twisted his mouth and pulled such lugubrious faces that Austin felt how pathetic it all was, and how hard the man was trying to work upon the feelings of the audience. But the flare-up at the end was really very creditable.
"The mate told me to stamp on the port side when I wanted you; but I didn't remember at the moment." "You should remember," the captain uttered with an effort. Then added mumbling "I don't want Mrs Anthony frightened. Don't you see?" "She wasn't this time," Powell said innocently: "She lighted the flare-up for me, sir." "This time," Captain Anthony exclaimed and turned round.
Crow Crow Crowdey! gasped Jogglebury, convulsively, as a tall woman, in flare-up red and yellow stunner tartan, with a swarm of little children, similarly attired, suddenly appeared at an angle of the road, the lady handling a great alpaca umbrella-looking parasol in the stand-and-deliver style. 'What's kept you? exclaimed she, as the vehicle got within ear-shot.
Then, seeing her apprehensive of a second flare-up of that volcanic fire: "So gentlemanly of them, too, Bibi. How can those few years of love be worth a life of this to you?" "Those few years? why, Guy! of love? Is that how you feel?" Her eyes filled; her whole face quivered. "Oh, Guy be willing for my sake. I never knew what love could mean until lately." His grasp hurt her knuckles.
