But on Jinny's lips was a proud little smile, and her bright look was a shining shield for the wounds of the spirit. "That is a comfort," she said with pleasant, friendly warmth. "You don't know how horridly responsible I felt! Really, Jack ought to have let me know but that's Jack all over. He's never grown up." "He's not had much time," returned McLean from the height of his twenty-nine years.
The inner leading Blue team apparently hugged the spina wall too close and jammed its left-hand hub-end against the marble, stopping the chariot, so that the axle and pole slewed and so that the horses, since the pole and the traces did not snap, were brought nose on against the wall and piled up horridly, just at the goal-line, opposite the judges stand, and falling so that as they fell they straightened out the pole and brought the chariot to a standstill with its axle neatly across the course.
And that sounds horridly snobbish, I know; I am a snob about Eileen, but not about myself because it doesn't harm me to make round wonder-eyes at a Herr Professor or gaze intensely into the eyes of an artist when he's ornamental; it doesn't make my hair come down over my ears to do that sort of thing, and it doesn't corrupt me into slinking off to museum lectures or spending mornings prowling about the Society Library or the Chinese jades in the Metropolitan "

"Are you so horridly ignorant, then," he cried, "as not to know, that by far the most dangerous part of a house, during such a terrific tempest as this, is the fire-place?"

"Nonsense," he said, "I'm not going to bed yet." "Oh! And what difference might that make to me? You are horridly conceited; do you know it?" "Please stay, Calypso. It's too hot to sleep." "No; star-prowling is contrary to civilized custom." "But every soul in the house is sound asleep " "I should hope so! And you and I have no business to be out here."
He asked me as perlite for the wood, as he couldn't be perliter ef I war Queen Victory herself. 'How fortunate that I didn't turn round my head! thought Linda, her first confusion over; 'for of all horridly unbecoming things, showing no hair about one's face is the worst. Whence it will be seen that Miss Wynn was not exempt from female vanity.
The single person soon found the single chamber "horridly arbitrary," and preferred the freedom of military despotism. But his major-generals were even more arbitrary than the single chamber, and in 1657 a fresh constitution was elaborated with a Second Chamber to make it popular.
'Oh yes, long ago. Lady Delmar had tried to make him nasty about it, but he wouldn't be, so that's all right; and Mark seems to get on very well, though it must be horridly dull for him now the Kirkaldys are away, and he can't spend all his Sundays at Monks Horton.
An occasional shot came from there; but never such another as the last. Finally Grylls changed his tactics. From behind his rock he taunted Garth vilely. The walls of the ravine reverberated horridly with the sound of the sudden human voice.
