She lifted her eyes and looked in his profoundly. He reddened a little under her gaze, but she could detect no softening or confusion in the shrewd steady glance he gave her back. "Things going wrong again is that the trouble?" he merely asked with a comforting inflexion. "They always are wrong; it's all been an awful mistake. But I shouldn't care if you were here and I could see you sometimes.
"If you interfere with me, I'll go to the police." "The police?" Penfield elaborated an inflexion of derision. "I keep this precinct in my vest pocket." "Possibly so far as concerns your maintenance of a gambling house. But murder that's another matter." "Meaning, you refuse to submit without extreme measures?" "Meaning just that, sir!" Again the gambler sighed.
"I can't tell what you like," Verena said, still looking into Olive's eyes. "I'm sure Miss Chancellor likes everything here," Mrs. Tarrant remarked, with a noble confidence. Selah had reappeared by this time; his lofty, contemplative person was framed by the doorway. "Want to try a little inspiration?" he inquired, looking round on the circle with an encouraging inflexion.
Suddenly he seemed to make out her mourning. "Already!" he cried audibly and with a smile, as I felt, of pleasure. She dropped on her knees and took his hand. "Not for you, cousin," she whispered. "For my poor brother." He started, in all his deathly longitude, as with a galvanic shock. "Dead! HE dead! Life itself!" And then after a moment and with a slight rising inflexion: "You're free?"
A section on the S.E. exhibits an inflexion towards the centre. The crest is everywhere continuous except on the N., where it is broken by a deep crater with a bright rim. The north-easterly trend of the ridges and hillocks on the E. is especially noteworthy.
These are examples of incorporation and agglutination in the grammatical system of languages which are justly cited as models of an interior development by inflexion. Many things, which appear to us at present inflexions of a radical, have perhaps been in their origin affixes, of which there have barely remained one or two consonants.
Then, with her little basket on her arm, she turns away slowly to join the maid-servant who is waiting for her in the hall. "I am SO fond of that child," sighs Signora Evelina, with the sweetest inflexion in her voice, "but she doesn't like me at all!" "What an absurd idea!...Doretta is a very self-willed child."
Stirling," she said, speaking deliberately, in a low, mellow voice, by no means so common then as our women's imitation of the English tone and inflexion has since made it, "for suiting your time to mine on such short notice." "You were very kind," said Peter, "to comply with my request. Any time was convenient to me." "I am glad it suited you."
The slight incredulity in his voice touched some raw nerve in Fenwick. 'I don't want anything, he said, almost angrily. 'I shall get through. Cuningham had been talking, no doubt. His affairs had been discussed. His morbid pride took offence at once. 'Mine'll just hold out, said Watson, presently, with a humorous inflexion 'it'll bury me, I think with a few shillings over.
He waited now to see the same thing happen to this youthful lawyer from Gavrillac. But he waited in vain. Andre-Louis found him ridiculous. He knew pretentiousness for the mask of worthlessness and weakness. And here he beheld pretentiousness incarnate. It was to be read in that arrogant poise of the head, that scowling brow, the inflexion of that reverberating voice.
