retorted the parrot, and then he added grumblingly in Trot's ear, "Blue feathers don't make bluebirds." "Really," said the girl, standing up and bowing respectfully to the Pinkies, "we are not Blueskins, although we are wearing the blue uniforms of the Boolooroo and have just escaped from the Blue Country. If you will look closely, you will see that our skins are white."
June was used to go to dances with Irene as a matter of course! and deliberately fixing his gaze on her, he asked: "Why don't you get Irene?" No! June did not want to ask Irene; she would only go if if her grandfather wouldn't mind just for once for a little time! At her look, so eager and so worn, old Jolyon had grumblingly consented.
The other two ambulance drivers to whom Ruth had been introduced came to the table and finished their suppers, Mother Gervaise grumblingly dishing up more hot stew for them. "It is for you and such as you I slave and slave," she said. "And what thanks do I get?" "For la zozotte do you work, Mother," said one, laughing. "And who would want better thanks than money?"
In consequence probably of the first part of this answer, Mrs. Kent said: "Nicholas, you'd better take your uncle out this morning and show him a little of the village." Nicholas grumblingly assented. So about ten o'clock they started out. "You've got a good horse here," said Dick. "He ought to be. Mother paid four hundred dollars for him." "Did she, though?
And I never heard of their sending to repair a wire at night before." "Listen," said Dick. "Perhaps we will find out." "Well, now that we've found it, we might as well repair it," said the first lineman, grumblingly. "All comes of someone trying to get a message through to Bray and making the manager believe it was a life and death matter!"
"Our contract with Altar terminated at eleven tonight," insisted Mr. Torrington. "Kindly sign this cheque beneath my signature." And very grumblingly Cassis obliged. "We have staked a lot of money on this affair," he said. "Yes, and not a little reputation," replied the old man. "Don't follow your reasoning." "I'm getting old, Cassis, reaching the age when the hereafter becomes the nearafter."
And so, as we stand in our mendicancy by the wayside, Time tosses carefully the great golden to-day into our hats, and we turn it over grumblingly and suspiciously, and are pleasantly surprised at finding that we can exchange it for beef and potatoes.
We cannot turn him over to Villa, or any other Mexican to be murdered." Grumblingly Grayson unsaddled. "Ef you'd seen what I've seen around here," he said, "I guess you wouldn't be so keen to save this feller's hide." "What do you mean?" asked the boss. "I mean that he's ben tryin' to make love to your daughter." The older man laughed. "Don't be a fool, Grayson," he said, and walked away.
Her feet should not falter, nor her eyes be dimmed by any shadow of fear or of regret, though she went by perilous ways to an almost certain end. Soon after noon she got up and prepared to face the world again, and towards three o'clock she returned to the Villa Medici. She had to ring the porter's bell as the garden gate was shut, and the old man came grumblingly as usual.
She then proceeded to slice the onions very deftly with a tuning-fork, after which she rubbed the ice-cream of the pavement with the slices, making a circle all around the Teacup, and another all around Sara, somewhat like the ring they used to burn about a fire in the grass, to keep it from spreading. All this time she was talking to them grumblingly, though she never once looked up.
