"What's her other name?" "Zuleika," Katie enunciated with bitterest abhorrence. "Well, then, he jolly well did love her. That's the name he called out just before he threw himself in. 'Zuleika! like that," added the boy, with a most infelicitous attempt to reproduce the Duke's manner. Katie had shut her eyes, and clenched her hands. "He hated her. He told me so," she said.
On the other hand, the Psalmist says of man, Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels. In the Scriptures we learn the origin and history of man the subject of education. He was created in the image of his Maker. It was his delightful employment, in innocency, to dress the beautiful garden in which he dwelt. Presently we learn he transgressed. His subsequent career becomes infelicitous.
'I think the view of the house from the park, just after we passed the bridge, particularly fine, said Miss Assher, interposing rather eagerly, as if she feared her mother might be making infelicitous speeches, 'and the pleasure of the first glimpse was all the greater because Anthony would describe nothing to us beforehand. He would not spoil our first impressions by raising false ideas.
At last he said: "I've told ye so much that I may as well tell ye how I come by that morgidge. 'Twont take but a minute, an' then you can run an' play," he added with a chuckle. "I trust I have not betrayed any impatience," said John, and instantly conscious of his infelicitous expression, added hastily, "I have really been very much interested."
Howells's work is essential to the student of the American provincial novel, as it is also to the student of our more generalized types of story-writing, and that he has never in his long career written an insincere, a slovenly, or an infelicitous page.
Attention is called to the unmusical flow of language in the alternate Confession provided for the Evening Office; the figurative features of the proposed Collect for Maundy-Thursday are characterized as infelicitous; and the Collect provided for the Feast of the Transfiguration is declared to be inferior to the corresponding one in the Sarum Breviary.
By that one infelicitous stroke the two outcasts made an enemy of the Law and the Gospel as represented in Trinidad County. It is to be feared also that the ordinary emotional instinct of a frontier community, to which they were now simply abandoned, was as little to be trusted. In this dilemma they disappeared from the town the next day no one knew where.
Feeling this to be infelicitous in a sort of despair with his tongue, which had taken a twist and could say nothing aright this morning he made haste to add in a tone at once easy and awkward, "It's my belief, 'Bias, as your parrot ain't fit to be left alone with females." "Well, I'm goin' to wring his neck anyway," promised 'Bias; "and, if some folks aren't careful, maybe I won't stop with his."
Doctor Holmes had a bit of counsel for those who were out at sea, that they should not waste any energy in asking how they looked from the shore; and the suggestion is not an infelicitous one in its general application to life.
I fear that this performance laid the foundation of her later infelicitous reputation, and perhaps awakened in her youthful breast a misplaced ambition, and an emulation which might at that time have been diverted into a nobler channel. For the fame of this juvenile performance and its possible promise in the future brought at once upon her the dangerous flattery and attention of the whole camp.
