With which pious ejaculation the Baron inspected his smudged and blistered fingers and read again the entertaining message from the Duke of Connecticut. "Why take to the highway," begged Philip guilelessly, "when the task is so unpleasant?" "Ah!" rumbled the Baron, more sombre now, "there is a man with a music-machine " "There is!" said Philip fervently.
"What should you like to do?" said Rex, quite guilelessly, and in real anxiety. "Oh, I don't know! go to the North Pole, or ride steeple-chases, or go to be a queen in the East like Lady Hester Stanhope," said Gwendolen, flightily. Her words were born on her lips, but she would have been at a loss to give an answer of deeper origin. "You don't mean you would never be married?"
Carl, though he had primarily intended the singular rig for the eyes of Tregar, had subtly invited the remark. His eyes were darkly ironic. "Prince," he said guilelessly, "it is a silent parable." "Yes?" "I am 'The Ghost of a Man's Past!" explained the Palmer lightly and clanked his chains. The level glances of the two met with the keenness of invisible swords.
"Let's ask Tom Latimer; we'll tell him Jim is going to be there at ten o'clock." Tom heard the girls and laughed: "But why at the Bridal Contest tent? Why not at the coal-heaving contest?" "Perhaps the boys thought there wouldn't be such a crowd at the Bridal," ventured Polly, guilelessly.
I saw you holding forth at a tremendous rate. Why wouldn't you let me stay and listen ?" "You'd have put me off my shot, I had to feel unobserved to play up." "You must be fearfully good at Arabic," said Jinny guilelessly. "And what did she say?" "Why she didn't say anything in particular " "But what was that she was showing you? I saw her bend forward with a locket or something ?"
Another member asked, "Whether the villages were destroyed or only the fortifications." "Only the fortifications," replied the minister guilelessly. What is the actual fact? All along the Afghan border every man's house is his castle. The villages are the fortifications, the fortifications are the villages.
She had felt, in these last weeks, that London might be having some unforeseen effect on Franklin Kane; she thought of him as very clear and very fixed, yet of such a guilelessly open nature as well, that new experience might impress too sharply the candid tablets of his mind. She did not like to think of any alteration in Franklin.
"He would n't be half so frightened if he thought we were dragons. He thinks we are much worse." "Oh ?" guilelessly questioned she. "What is that?" "He thinks we are human beings," Anthony explained. Susanna laughed, but it was rather a rueful laugh. "Anyhow," she said, "he 'll not come back so long as we remain here.
Montague had been watching Lucy out of the corner of his eye, and he could not forbear a slight smile. "What a wonderful man he is!" said Mrs. Prentice. "I admire him more than any man I know of in Wall Street." Then she turned to Montague. "Have you met him?" "Yes," said he; and added with a mischievous smile, "I saw him to-day." "I saw him last Sunday night," said Mrs. Prentice, guilelessly.
It had not needed that episode to tell her that Armstrong held her in contempt; and yet, when they chanced to meet, she could smile up into his eyes as beamingly, as guilelessly, as though no shadow of sin had ever darkened her winsome face. But not so Gray. He moaned in secret over the loss of a strong man's confidence and esteem. He longed to find a way to win it back.
