But with all these plums and peaches and rich fruits out of Plenty's horn poured into my lap, I fear I have been but an ingrate; and Hodge, my gatekeeper, who shares his bread and scrap of bacon with a family as large as his master's, seems to me to enjoy his meal as much as I do, though Mrs. Molly prepares her best dishes and sweetmeats, and Mr. Gumbo uncorks the choicest bottle from the cellar.
"Monster!" laughed Miss Harding, our fair chauffeuse on this return trip, raising her eyes for an instant to mine. "Ingrate!" hissed Miss Ross, leaning forward from the tonneau. "What shall we do with him?" demanded Miss Lawrence. "Make him take us with him!" they chorused, and I assured them that nothing would give me more pleasure.
"I am not the base ingrate you would deem me. Condemn me to death an thou wilt, I kneel not to sue for life; for, dishonored and suspected, I would not accept it were it offered. Let them bring forward what they will, I am innocent. Here, before ye all, in presence of the murdered victim, by all held sacred in Heaven or on Earth, I swear I slew him not!
"I have called you king, and after that I could never serve the coward who sits now upon the throne of Lutha. I have made up my mind during this long ride from Lustadt, and I have come to the decision that I should prefer to raise corn in Nebraska with you rather than serve in the court of an ingrate."
"Has he not at heart disdained me? Has he not in prison chained me? Am I not his son, that he Treats me ignominiously? "Why should Gurzam's scorn and hate Rouse a loving father's wrath? Why should he, the foul ingrate, Cast destruction in my path?"
"Well, don't meddle with our affairs. Sleep yourself sober from your absinthe." "You are an ingrate, Enjolras." "You the man to go to the Barriere du Maine! You capable of it!"
Ambition only makes a favourite to make an ingrate; she has lavished her honours on Lord , and see how he speaks of her bounty?" "Nay," said the Earl, "I spoke wantonly, and stand corrected. I have no reason to complain of the course I have chosen. Ambition, like any other passion, gives us unhappy moments; but it gives us also an animated life.
My good squire Sancho will relate to thee in full, fair ingrate, dear enemy, the condition to which I am reduced on thy account: if it be thy pleasure to give me relief, I am thine; if not, do as may be pleasing to thee; for by ending my life I shall satisfy thy cruelty and my desire. "Thine till death, "The Knight of the Rueful Countenance."
Ah! why, charming ingrate, have you left me no one excuse for all your ills to me?
O Warwick, if not for my sake, nor for the sake of full redress against the ingrate whom thou repentest to have placed on my father's throne, at least for the sake of England, for the healing of her bleeding wounds, for the union of her divided people, hear the grandson of Henry V., who sues to thee for thy daughter's hand!" The royal wooer bent his knee as he spoke.
