And the old man went grumpily to bed, and dreamed that Miss Jenny had put her little foot over his threshold, and that he had shown her the secret panel, and let her take away his savings. And Jack went to bed, and dreamed that he went to school, and showed himself to Phoebe Shaw in his Sunday suit. This dainty little damsel had long been making havoc in Jack's heart.
"But where are all the things they have in the shop windows all the meats and cakes and sweet things? What becomes of all them?" "That I don't know," said Pelle grumpily; he himself had racked his brains over this very question. "I get all I can eat, but washing and clothes I have to see to myself."
Thet accounts fer his feedin' on dead meat." My naturalist host and my scientific friend both remarked somewhat grumpily that I seemed to get the best of all the good things. I might have retaliated that I certainly had gotten the worst of all the bad jokes; but, being generously happy over my prize, merely remarked: "If you want fame or wealth or wolves, go out and hunt for them."
Murray crossed over to the paling rather grumpily. He did not want to talk with Mollie Booth just then. Confound it, what did the girl want? Why was she looking so mysterious? Mollie produced a little square grey envelope from some feminine hiding place and handed it over the paling.
To experience such moments is to live with the high fervour which God gave to mortals before towns and laws laid their dreary spell upon them. Early in the day I met a bear the second I had seen in my life. I did not want him, and he disregarded me and shuffled grumpily down the hill-side.
"Wizzle-wizzle, indeed," said Boxer grumpily; "why don't you come down, old sharp-bill, and pull this thorn out of my nose?" "'Tisn't safe," said the starling. "Get out," said Boxer; "why, what do you mean?" "You'd get hold of my tail, perhaps," said Specklems. "Ha-ha-ha," laughed all the birds; "that's capital, so he would." "No, no; honour bright," said Boxer.
Grace caught this by-play as she munched a chocolate grumpily. Adoring her brother Will as she did, she had always been a little jealous of his fancy for Amy. "Anyway, they don't have to be so silly in public," she told herself resentfully. As she roused herself from her musing, she heard Mollie say, with a laugh: "Don't be surprised if we come home with our pockets full of gold. Mrs.
"But give my knife! I wouldn't. Oh, well, all right. You know best, and if you think we ought to give it to them, there you are. Good-bye, old sharper! I am very sorry to part with you all the same." "Never mind, Punch. I'll give you a better one some day." "Some day never comes," said the boy grumpily. "But I know you will if you can."
We've missed the last train to London!" Pollyooly smiled coldly. "Well, we must spend the night at the hotel," he said grumpily. "If I left your ladyship here, there's no saying when I should see you again." Pollyooly scowled again, and Eglantine burst into loud and excited protest: "Her ladyship must sleep in the house in her own bed properly."
Peter granted it rather grumpily, and I fear that he never really quite forgave Sara for her untimely outburst. Felix, too, felt resentment against her, because he had lost the chance of preaching his sermon. "Of course I know I wouldn't have got the prize, for I couldn't have made such an impression as Peter," he said to us mournfully, "but I'd like to have had a chance to show what I could do.
