In a sharp fight at Koheroa the natives were driven from their entrenchments with some loss, and any forward movement on their part was effectually stopped. But, thanks to what seemed to the colonists infuriating slowness, the advance up the Waikato was not begun until the latter part of October, and the conquest of the country not completed until February.
"I'd hate to be one o' Zip's kids with you gettin' busy around me," she cried, chuckling in an infuriating manner. It was too much for Sandy. He turned fiercely as he reached the door. "You're 'bug," he declared roughly. "I tell you, Zip's kids ain't nothin' to do with me " "Which, I'd say, was lucky for them," cried Birdie airily.
Half-stunned, he dashed out of the hold, got his musket, and fired down among the mutineers, hitting one black- fellow in the throat, and killing him instantly. Far from infuriating the rest, as would most certainly have been the case with any other race, this course of action terrified the blacks, and they barricaded themselves down below.
That the boy should have behaved like this brought a reality of passion into the affair disconcerting and infuriating as if an actor should find his enemy on the stage was armed with a real sword.
It took about five weeks to do the journey, and the rifle which I was obliged to leave in Karachi on the 19th of March finally turned up in Srinagar, after an infuriating and vain expenditure of telegrams, on the 1st of May!

He is sent away by his displeased parent to learn the virtue of obedience, while Anadea retires to St.
Orion's lips framed the retort: "And yours, too, some day, Son of a Slave!" but Paula was standing opposite, and to avoid infuriating her foe he was able to do what he never could have done else: to let the Vekeel and Horapollo pass on without a word in reply. As soon as the door was closed on this couple, Othman nodded approvingly at Orion and said: "Rightly and wisely done, my friend!
She had slept soundly and dreamlessly for several hours, then she had been kept awake by the same thoughts which had pressed upon her so constantly of late. She would defy Charles's cruel demand. The infuriating compulsion inflicted upon her could only strengthen her resolve. If she was dragged to a convent by force, she would refuse, at the ceremony of profession, to become a nun.
She knew she had lied, but to be told so by this man was infuriating. She made no attempt to further disguise her feelings. "I said I was busy," she cried deliberately. "Surely that should be sufficient." But the man had no intention of accepting his dismissal. "It jest depends wot a feller's come around for," he said, no whit disconcerted.
Christophe divined her thoughts, and took a malicious delight in infuriating her: then he would step aside, and say that he was too busy to accept the Langeais' invitations, so as to leave Jacqueline and Olivier alone together. However, he was not altogether without anxiety concerning the future.
