"Frank Hazeldean, I am pleased indeed to meet you. Why do you indulge in that melancholy doubt as to the time when I may see you again?" "I have just got leave of absence. I am not well, and I am rather hipped, so I shall go abroad for a few weeks." In spite of himself, the sombre, brooding man felt interest and sympathy in the dejection that was evident in Frank's voice and countenance.
And his other brother was Koskomines, the Blue Jay. Kusk was very lazy, and one day, being hungry, thought he would go and get a dinner from Lox. Lox served him a kind of pudding-soup in a broad, flat platter. Poor Kusk could hardly get a mouthful, while Lox hipped it all up with ease. Soon after, Kusk made a fine soup, and invited Lox to dinner. This he served up in a jug, a long cylinder.
"Now I'm going back to the trenches," he said, gloomily. "Same old business and one of the crowd again." He was suffering from the reaction of popular idolatry. He felt hipped because no one made a fuss of him now or bothered about his claret-colored ribbon.
An old gentleman, hipped by celibacy, and too sour for society, has contracted a habit of looking out of his window every morning, to observe the weather: he sees a cloud very like a whale, or he fancies that when the wind blows in a particular direction, and it happens to rain at the same time, that the drops fall in a peculiarly slanting manner.
I responded, as we shook hands. I was glad to see him. Even his usually frivolous conversation was preferable to my own meditations at the moment. "Just transferred, regular stroke of luck.

Come and join me."
It will be a great comfort if it can be managed. MRS. H. I wanted to speak to you, Cissy. C. I thought so! MRS. H. What do you think of your mother? C. Poor old darling. They have been worrying her till she has got hipped and nervous about herself. MRS. H. Do you know what spasms she has been having?
He must have dropped from the roof or come up through the flooring. He certainly wasn't anywhere about when I made out my list. He looks a trifle hipped, eh?" "Troubled decidedly troubled." "You might go a little further and say done up." "Good-looking, though. Appears to be of foreign birth." "English, I should say, and just over." "English, without a doubt.
The house stands on a considerable elevation. The main portion, with its hipped roof and mullioned windows, is very old, but the two wings that stretch to the east and west are comparatively modern, and date back little over a century.
When his foot's asleep he thinks he's got creeping paralysis. Every time his breath comes short, his heart's giving out." "That's hereditary!" said Marny; "he said so." "Hereditary be hanged! Same with everything else. Last night he dug me out of bed and wanted me to count his pulse thought it intermitted. He's hipped, I tell you, on his health!"
Hyacinth spent her days half in yawning and sighing, and half in idle laughter and childish games with Henriette and De Malfort. When she was gay she was as much a child as her daughter; when she was fretful and hipped, it was a childish discontent.
