The river man had dropped in just behind her, and, according to the wharf-master: "I shore kept my eyes on that man, for he was a riveh rat!" The thought was sickening to Carline. His wife floating down the river with a river rat close behind presented but two explanations: she was being followed for crime, or the two were just flirting on the river, together.
The life was like the life at a sea-side hotel, only more monotonous. The walking was limited; the talk was the tentative talk of people aware that there was no refuge if they got tired of one another. The flirting itself, such as there was of it, must be carried on in the glare of the pervasive publicity; it must be crude and bold, or not be at all. There seemed to be very little of it.
I've seen the pleasure and comfort she took in his way from the first moment. He seemed to make her forget Do you suppose she has forgotten that miserable wretch Do you think " "If she hadn't, could she be letting him come to speak to you? I don't believe she ever really cared for Bittridge or not after he began flirting with Mrs. Uphill."
You don't understand." "I certainly don't understand. You've encouraged Roy Gardner in every way for two years and now you tell me you've refused him. Then you've just been flirting scandalously with him. Anne, I couldn't have believed it of YOU." "I WASN'T flirting with him I honestly thought I cared up to the last minute and then well, I just knew I NEVER could marry him."
Pleased with the prospect of their son's making so good a match, they even ventured one day a dull jest on the subject in the presence of Frances a jest which, heavy as it was, aroused her to reflection. Flirting with a man, and angling for his admiration, is one thing; loving and marrying him, is another.
Instead of flirting with him or giving him any encouragement, as girls of her class often did, she studiously avoided his gaze, seeming not to know he was there, serenely indifferent as to whether he came or went.
Austin Dobson, when he is not flirting, but in earnest, as in the "Song of Four Seasons" and "The Dead Letter." He has ingenuity, pathos, mastery of his art, and, though the least pedantic of poets, is "conveniently learned." Of contemporary Americans, if I may be frank, I prefer the verse of Mr.
Master Hubert, I want you to paint my portrait before papa returns that's to be in four weeks, isn't it?" The elder pair regarded her disconcertedly. "Oh, you needn't look so dismal. I'll not tell tales out of school. Hubert and mamma flirting! What a glorious jest! Isn't life a jest, Hubert? Let's make a bargain! If you paint mamma, you paint me, also.
"You won't go telling anybody else, then?" "Not a living soul, upon my honor." "Well, then," he said she began to blush like a rose "that he looked on me as a mere female in embryo; I had not yet developed the vices of my sex. But Fanny Dover was a ripe flirt, and she would set me flirting, and how could he manage the pair?
Oh, how I wish my darling Jules were here, or even your brother, Grace he was better than no one!" "My brother is very much obliged to you." "You talk to me of my flirting propensities," continued the exasperated Rose. "I should like to know what you call Kate's conduct with that little Scotchman." "Friendship, my dear," Grace answered, repressing a smile.
