I insisted, but he stared at me inscrutably, and said that he had no record of the man. Then I spoke most forcibly to the General, and said that Mr. Wainfleet should be produced, or an account of him be given by the French Governor. Doltaire then said: "I am only responsible for these names recorded. Our General trusts to your honour, and you to ours, Monsieur le General."
Justine paused, and then, letting her fingers glide once or twice over the back of Bessy's hand "You know, dear, Mr. Amherst is coming," she leaned down to say. Bessy's eyes moved again, slowly, inscrutably. She had never asked for her husband. "Soon?" she whispered.
Gnob nodded his head gravely, his gnarled and age-twisted face inscrutably masking the soul that dwelt behind. His narrow eyes burned like twin coals through their narrow slits, as he piped in a high-cracked voice, "But that is not all." "What more?" Keesh demanded. "Have I not offered full measure? Was there ever yet a Tana-naw maiden who fetched so great a price? Then name her!"
At the first sight of one of these newspaper articles, Madeleine fairly cried with mortification and anger. She wanted to leave Washington the next day, and she hated the very thought of Ratcliffe. There was something in the newspaper style so inscrutably vulgar, something so inexplicably revolting to the sense of feminine decency, that she shrank under it as though it were a poisonous spider.
"But I am a blundering sailor," he rejoined, "who only believes his eyes." "You are young yet," she replied. "I shall be older to-morrow," was his retort. "Well, perhaps you will see better to-morrow," she rejoined, with indolent irony. "If I do, I'll acknowledge it," he added. Then Hungerford smiled at me inscrutably. We two held a strange secret.
As the servants, still greatly mystified, crowded out of the sick-room door, curtsying, pulling the forelock, scraping with the foot, and so on, according to their degree, I turned and stole a look at my cousin. He had borne this crushing public rebuke without change of countenance. He stood now, very upright, with folded arms, and looking inscrutably at the roof of the apartment.
But Penfield only grinned more inscrutably than ever and closed the door behind him. Hayden glared irritably after his departing guest and then shook his fist in the direction Penfield had taken. Having thus relieved his feelings, he threw himself into a chair and moodily lighted a cigarette.
It will give them a great deal to think about, by ! If necessary the dose may be repeated to ensure a cure. If you kill the -s, so much the better." He paused, his sallow face flushed with the enthusiasm of his idea. Andre-Louis stared at him inscrutably. "Well, what do you say to that?" "That it is most ingenious." And Andre-Louis turned aside to look out of the window.
But Ralph Touchett had learned more or less inscrutably to attend, and there could have been nothing so "sustained" to attend to as the general performance of Madame Merle. He tasted her in sips, he let her stand, with an opportuneness she herself could not have surpassed.
"What a delusion you are!" "Me? Why?" "Your gravity, your dignity, your wise saws and maxims your hatred of women." "Oh, I say." "All pose!" she continued gaily. "Politic but ineffective. You love us all madly, I know. Do they make love to you, Philidor?" "Who?" "Your beautiful sitters." "No," he growled. "That's not what they're in the studio for." She smiled inscrutably. "Olga did."
