Gipsy-like, he! he! So he is! I wonder if he can tell fortunes?" "He'll be long before he has a fortune of his own to tell. Ha! ha!" said Plimmins. "He! he! how very good! you are so pleasant, Plimmins."
Of course I was summoned to meet her when she came, and I learned then something about 'ordeal by question. She was a pretty, brown-eyed, gipsy-like, and petite maiden, more child than woman in her ways, but with a warm, loving, and faithful heart, and a wit as bright and ready almost as that of June Jenrys, who was, to my mind, the cleverest as well as the queenliest of girls.
Pat was broad awake now, and when the carrier, seeing they would have to wait awhile, took out a lunch of bread and meat and began to cut it with a pocket knife, the dog stood on his hind legs and begged in his most insinuating way. "He's as smart as his master," said the carrier, laughing, while the gipsy-like man turned and glanced keenly at the van.
Constance was twenty-six, John, the master of Buddesby, was a year younger, and Ellice was eighteen, her slender body as yet childish and unformed, her gipsy-like face a little too thin. But there was beauty there, wonderful and startling beauty that would one day blossom forth. It was in the bud as yet, but the bud was near to opening.
Again he saw the dog caught in this fashion, and soon after watched it reach the edge of the wood and bound down into the lane, where it soon after encountered a gipsy-like party, who caught sight of the dog's strange collar, and sought to stop it, and steal the letter, for which the dog fought fiercely, and finally escaped by leaping back into the wood and disappearing entirely, so that he could trace it no more.
Narracombe's snake-like neck turned, her quick dark glance taking it all in, her shrewd face hardening; saw the gipsy-like cousins coarsely mocking and distrustful; Joe stolid and furious; only the lame man, Jim, with the suffering eyes, seemed tolerable to his mind.
Poll was a thin, sallow woman, with piercing dark eyes, and a very; gipsy-like countenance. Her dress was always black, and very much worn; in fact, everything about her was black black stockings, black bonnet, black hair, and black kerchief. Poll's occupation was indeed a singular one, and not very creditable to the morals of the day.
"Yes, Maria," said Lady Fenimore, with fear in her dark eyes, "we don't doubt your word but, as Anthony has said, if she wasn't with you, where was she?" "How do I know?" Maria Beccles pointed a lean finger she was a dark and shrivelled, gipsy-like creature. "You might as well ask the canal in which she drowned herself." "But, my God, Anthony!"
The two girls made a strong contrast. One so small and pale and fair and the other so tall, with her dark, gipsy-like beauty. But Faith did not even glance his way, and with a half-sigh Forrester went on down the stairs, and they heard the shutting of the smoking-room door. Faith turned to close her own again, but Peg was too quick for her. She was past her and inside the room instantly.
Waller had managed so well that he had only a few yards to go; in fact, if the task had been undertaken by the tall gipsy-like woodland dweller, to whom he had referred as Bunny a nickname, by the way, bestowed upon him by the boy from his rabbit-like habits, though they were more foxy, as Waller felt, but he liked him too well to brand him with such a name it could not have been done better.
