"Marian needs curbing; she's got to understand that she can't go gallivanting over the country with strangers, getting her name in the newspapers. I'm not going to have it; I'm going to stop her nonsense!" His voice had risen with his anger. Sylvia saw that nothing was to be gained by argument. "The main thing is to bring Marian home, isn't it, Mr. Bassett?" "Most certainly.
"Yes. You will accompany us back to the United States the day after to-morrow. In the meantime I shall make it my business to see that you stay in the hotel and are not allowed to go gallivanting about." "It can't be done, Uncle John," said Chester quietly. "We have duties to perform." "So you have," returned Uncle John, "and the chief one is to return home where you belong."
My purpose, however, just now was to talk of the "strict retreat," which did not prevent the nuns from walking in their little garden, breviary in hand, peeping at us, and allowing us to peep at them. Well, now, we are in strict retreat; and if we had been so last year, instead of gallivanting to Ireland, this affair might not have befallen if literary labour could have prevented it.
Where's my dinner? Of course I don't mean to scold, Billy, but there is a limit to even my patience and it's reached now. I can't help suggesting that if you would tend to your husband and your home a little more, and go gallivanting off with Calderwell and Arkwright and Alice Greggory a little less, that Where is Eliza, anyway?" he finished irritably, switching on the lights with a snap.
I arrived here this morning, about an hour before the rest of you. Kind and hospitable hostess that she seems to be, I grieve to relate that I had hardly paid my respects to Mrs. Briggs when J.

'Harry, your hand, he cried, sparkling. 'Hum; his hand! growled the squire. 'His hand's been pretty lively on the Continent, William. Here, look at this book, William, and the bundle o' cheques! No, I promised my girl. We'll go into it to-morrow, he and I, early. The fellow has shot away thousands and thousands been gallivanting among his foreign duchesses and countesses.
Some of them did run up the sticks seven feet, and then straggled off into the air in a wanton manner; but more than half of them went gallivanting off to the neighboring grape-trellis, and wound their tendrils with the tendrils of the grape, with a disregard of the proprieties of life which is a satire upon human nature. And the grape is morally no better.
I thought you were asleep after all that gallivanting, and was just preparing to blow you up out of bed over the telephone," exclaimed my Uncle, the General Robert, with great fierceness of manner but also a great pleasure of eyes at the sight of me in the character of such a nice Secretary to the Gouverneur of Harpeth.
'You're never to be trusted, screamed the woman; 'you were out all day yesterday, and gallivanting somewhere I know. You know you were! Isn't it enough that I paid two pound fourteen for you, and took you out of prison and let you live here like a gentleman, but must you go on like this: breaking, my heart besides?
Such, sir, are the poems of Lisa, all addressed to me, who came so near to gallivanting with mere queens!" "What, can it be that you are remorseful?" said Koshchei.
