She was going to say, "I've eaten it," but gran'father had so earnestly impressed on her mind the sinfulness of telling lies, that she felt constrained to hesitate, and, with a trembling lip, finished by saying she had eaten some of it. "And what has become of the rest, dear?" "Please, miss, she've putt it in 'er pocket," said "Imperence" promptly.
Warrington looking very pale. "He say it was the coolest thing he ever knew. So did Mr. Morris. He showed him your letter, Master Harry. Yes, Mr. Morris say, 'Dam his imperence!" added Gumbo. Harry burst into such a yell of laughter that his landlord thought he had good news, and ran in in alarm lest he was about to lose his tenant.
I'd ha' torn his ugly eyes out. Mat. They ain't ugly eyes. They're big and blue, and they sparkle so when he talks to her! Sus. And who's her? Ye didn't mention a her. Some brazen-faced imperence! Mat. No. The young lady at Mrs. Clifford's. Sus. Oho! See if I do a stitch for her! Shan't I leave a needle in her shimmy, just! Mat. What shall I do! All the good's gone out of me! And such a pain here!
She had a round, sentimental, freckled face. "I should 'ave known 'im anywhere," she said with fervour. "Hark at mother!" said the cousin called Annie. "Why, she's never set eyes on him before!" "I should 'ave known 'im anywhere," said Mrs. Larkins, "for Lizzie's child. You've got her eyes! It's a Resemblance! And as for never seeing 'im I've dandled him, Miss Imperence. I've dandled him."
"Imperence!" muttered the offended housekeeper, again advancing to the window when the man had passed. As the train was evidently about to start, Miss Peppy's memory became suddenly very acute, and a rush of forgotten directions almost choked her as she leaned out of the window. "Oh! Niven, I forgot the the dear me, what is it? I know it so well when I'm not in a flurry.
Crump, who rushed forward and prevented him from falling by administering right and left a whole shower of slaps, such as he had never endured since the day he was at school. "What imperence!" said that worthy lady; "you'll lay hands on my daughter, will you? You'll insult a woman in distress, will you, you little coward? Take that, and mind your manners, you filthy monster!"
O heaven, there stood Mary, weeping on Doctor Bates's arm, while that miserable apothecary was looking at me with the utmost scorn. The gardener, who had let me in, had told them of my arrival, and now stood grinning behind them. "Imperence!" was my Magdalen's only exclamation, as she flounced by with the utmost self-possession, while I, glancing daggers at the SPIES, followed her.
Don't say it's that there Miss 'Arringay 'oo wos a-settin' 'er cap so 'ard at 'im the other night? I was a little taken aback. 'Yes, that's about it, I confessed. 'Well, upon my soul, the sorcy baggage, burst out Elizabeth with unexpected wrath, 'such imperence after me workin' an' plannin' the way I 'ave. But she shan't 'ave 'im. Look 'ere, 'm, Miss Marryun is just the one fer 'im.
Hold your tongue, and don't laugh, you rogue. Why shouldn't she have her paper, and I my pleasure, without your wicked, wicked sneers and imperence? I'm only a cipher in the young lady's estimation, and why shouldn't I sigh for her if I like. I hope I shall see you all at Boston before very long. I always consider Boston as my native place, you know."
"Well," I says to myself, "for right down imperence this beats anything, why he's in the place before he knows if I'll let him have it. Perhaps he thinks I haven't got a word to say in the matter, fifty pounds or no fifty pounds, I'll soon show him." So I slips on my bonnet, and I walks over the road, and I hammers at the door.
