"We're going right toward the bay suppose the wind dies down and lets us into the water?" "Well, these wings are water-proof, you know," said Hawkins. "They might " "Yes, and the bay might dry up, so that we could walk back if we escaped being broken in pieces, Hawkins," I sneered. Hawkins subsided. The breeze did not. It was one of the most impolitely persistent breezes I have ever encountered.
"There!" said Bill, impolitely dropping his burden upon a pile of straw in the corner of the rather extensive cave at the end of the passage; "wonder if the little fool is dead. She ought to be coming to by this time." "She's got her eyes wide open," uttered the raucous voice on the opposite side; and Rosalie turned her eyes in that direction.
"I know her type," his wife nodded. "You meet her out, and you have the sense that, while not exactly a fine large woman, she's a whole lot larger than the average. And now, age?" "I'll give you best there," he parried. "She might be twenty-five, she might be twenty-eight . . . " But Stanley Patterson had impolitely forgotten to listen. "It's not her legs alone," he cried on enthusiastically.
Then all the people used to cringe and crawl to preachers. Mr. Buckle, in his history of civilization, shows that men were even struck dead for speaking impolitely to a priest. God would not stand it. See how they used to crawl before cardinals, bishops and popes. It is not so now. Before wealth they bowed to the very earth, and in the presence of titles they became abject.
The attraction proved too great for Jimmy; he impolitely left a disconsolate little visitor sitting on his own porch while he jumped the fence and joined the other children. "Don't you all wish you could see Mrs. Brown's new twinses?" was his greeting as he took his seat by Billy. "Where'd she get 'em?" asked Frances. "Doctor Sanford tooken 'em to her last night."
It does not traverse the higher ideals of the working class, which respects and admires the qualities of the 'gentleman, though it resents the privileges long connected with the name. But it has no attraction for what may be impolitely called the vulgar class, whose religious feelings find a natural vent in an unctuous emotionalism and sentimental humanitarianism.
Like a rosy cloud, like a crescent moon, like a star in the desert, like a lighthouse over lonely seas The telephone impolitely interrupted him. His fine frenzy disregarded the ringing, but it jangled his metaphors. 'But, alas! our people do not see clearly! he broke off. 'False prophets, colossally vain may their names be blotted out! confuse the foolish crowd.
Or a self-important salesman insists, very impolitely, because he thereby implies that we know nothing of what we desire, that the piece of goods which we are examining is of charming colors, tastefully combined, and is in fact the very thing which we most need.
"I don' want to hear no Bible story, neither," he objected, "I wants to hear Uncle Jimmy-Jawed Jup'ter play his 'corjun an' sing: "'Rabbit up the gum tree, Coon is in the holler Wake, snake; Juney-Bug stole a half a dollar." "I'll sing you a hymn," said Miss Minerva patiently. "I don' want to hear you sing no hymn," said Billy impolitely. "I wants to see Sanctified Sophy shout."
He looked at me with eyes of profound astonishment, and saluting me stiffly from a distance, seemed in two minds whether he should pass in or speak to me. On second thoughts, however, he came towards me, and again saluted me with a peculiarly dry and austere aspect. 'I believe, sir, I am speaking to M. de Marsac? he said in a low voice, but not impolitely. I replied in the affirmative.
