The horses knew they were going homeward, and showed a new liveliness, sharing the friskiness of the little graceful trees about them.
Are there any men of our set who haven't been a little frisky?" "Frisky! That is a milder word than I should use, Sally. The Forbes affair transcends friskiness and becomes the beginning of the pace that kills. It was intolerable; I can't forgive it." Her face flushed; then it paled and hardened with the rigidity of self-control.
Yes, truly, the same, and with the same old tricks. He had been married for nearly fourteen years, his children were half grown, he had long since given up youthful friskiness, but she was "at it" still. Why, she had been older than he when they were boy and girl; she must be for He gazed at her soft, rounded, olive cheek, and quenched the thought.
He said the horse I rode, from its friskiness, and natural desire to "get there, Eli!" would eventually get me killed, for if I ever got in sight of the enemy the horse would rush to the front, and I couldn't hold him. He said he didn't want to have me killed, and with the mule there would be no danger, as the mule knew enough to keep away from a fight.
This peculiar form of luxury was at that time adopted only by wealthy or eccentric Hollanders. Ludwig, as we have seen, had not quite lost his friskiness, but the other boys, after one or two feeble attempts at pillow firing, composed themselves for the night with the greatest dignity. Nothing like fatigue for making boys behave themselves!
"I never wish to dance any more," answered Donatello. "What a melancholy was in that tone!" exclaimed Miriam. "You are getting spoilt in this dreary Rome, and will be as wise and as wretched as all the rest of mankind, unless you go back soon to your Tuscan vineyards. Well; give me your arm, then! But take care that no friskiness comes over you. We must walk evenly and heavily to-night!"
We never moved a muscle all night, but waked at early dawn in the original positions, and got up at once, thoroughly refreshed, free from soreness, and brim full of friskiness. There is no end of wholesome medicine in such an experience. That morning we could have whipped ten such people as we were the day before sick ones at any rate.

But England unvirtuous will be like a cautiously calculating, somewhat shrewish matron, possessed of unnatural and unbecoming friskiness, without either laugh, or song, or smile her one god, Gold, and her one commandment, the suggested eleventh, "Thou shall not be found out!" I slept that night on deck.
Aunt Philippa struck her steed smartly with the whip and controlled his resultant friskiness with admirable skill. "Well, you know it's pleasanter," I said, wickedly. "Just think what a doleful world it would be if everybody were sensible." Aunt Philippa looked at me out of the corner of her eye and disdained any skirmish of flippant epigram. "So you want to get married?" she said.
