If I were to kick you from here to the sea, you'd still have the best of me. Haven't you realized that yet?" "I hadn't no!" Scott's eyes still regarded him with a puzzled, half-suspicious expression. Sir Eustace turned from their scrutiny, and began to walk on. "You will presently," he said. "The man who masters himself is always the man to master the rest of the world in the end.
The woman, a large, fat, lumbering creature, cast a sleepy glance, that was half-curious, half-suspicious, at him and answered: "Yes, Monsieur; but he bade me deny him to everybody." "He will see me, however, my good woman," said M. Dantès. "Take my card to him."
Her beauty, which, whilst it had been quiescent, he had praised in jest, had in its animated phases moved him to earnest; and though his seriousness was less than she imagined, it was probably more than he imagined himself. Bathsheba was brimming with agitated bewilderment, and she said, in half-suspicious accents of feeling, "Can it be! Oh, how can it be, that you care for me, and so suddenly!
It was well done on his lordship's part, but the lady did not seem convinced by it. Her face looked whiter, and her eyes had an alarmed, half-suspicious expression. "We must begin again," said Mr. Jenkins. And he began again. Mr. Caryll listened and watched, and he began to enjoy himself exceedingly.
We leaned our elbows on the parapet, and stared in silence all in a row, stared at in turn by the more than half-suspicious sentries. "How does it feel, old man" asked Will at last, "standing on ramparts where your ancestors once ruled the roost?"
"I'd rather stay up the air's better, and you can see so much farther," said Laurence. And he added hospitably: "There's plenty of room come on up, yourself!" "With one leg?" sarcastically. "And two eyes," said the boy. "Come on up the sky's fine!" And he laughed into the half-suspicious face.
He was staring moodily and silently before him. "Now, that is what I have come to talk to you about," continued Emery after a few seconds' pause, during which he had once more thrown a quick, half-suspicious glance on the impassive, though obviously interested face of the Englishman, "always supposing that Monsieur here is on our side."
"He is so; and of these matters he now never speaks at all." "Hush! he is here;" and with a feeling of unwonted nervousness, as if she feared he had been aware of how much she had thought and conversed about him, Olive met Harold Gwynne. "I am afraid I am an intruder, Miss Rothesay," said the latter, with a half-suspicious glance at the tall, dark figure which stood near her in the moonlight.
Morris turned to go, but then stopped, his mind still half-suspicious that he had been warned by his partner, and was lying perdu. "I'll give you another ten shillings," he said, "if you'll let me come in and satisfy myself." The man hesitated. "A sovereign," said Morris.
Thoroughly appreciating the taste and comfort of Harlowe's library, yet half-envious of its owner, and half-suspicious that his own earnest life for the past few years might have been different, Thatcher suddenly started from his seat and walked towards a parlor easel, whereon stood a picture. It was Carmen de Haro's first sketch of the furnace and the mine.
