She was full of life and fun, and breezy; she passed the repartee with the boarders quick as a wink; you'd have smothered laughing.

I am glued to the theory that the diversions and discrepancies of the indisposition known as love should be as private a sentiment as a toothbrush.
"It is a pleasure to find ourselves here, well and happy, while to-morrow His Eminence will find himself between four boards; we shall have to ring the little bell all day!" The Tato drank, passing the bottle to the shoemaker, who held it a long time glued to his gullet.
'His feet were glued to that remote spot and his eyes to their indistinct group bowed together and swaying strangely in the common torment of fear. A hand-lamp lashed to a stanchion above a little table rigged up on the bridge the Patna had no chart-room amidships threw a light on their labouring shoulders, on their arched and bobbing backs.
I did not know what to do. To go on upstairs to my own room and mind my own business seemed the simple thing simple, easy, and proper. But my feet were glued to the boards. I could not go, with that sound beating on my ears: I should hear it all the day. I glanced again at the waiter. He was a kind-looking fellow, and I saw the tears standing in his eyes.
