Hers was not a rare temperament, except in its fierce resentment of repression; a feeling which like genius or lunacy is apt to drive people into sudden irrelevancy. Hers was feminine irrelevancy. A male genius, a male ruffian, or even a male lunatic, would not have behaved exactly as she did behave. There is a softness in masculine nature, even the most brutal, which acts as a check.
She stepped forward, and took him by the wrist. "Is he dying?" she inquired. "Have courage, madam," the doctor besought her. The apparent irrelevancy of the request at such a moment, angered her. Her mood was dangerously testy. And had the doctor but known it, sympathy was a thing she had not borne well these many years.
These are their characteristics, easily recognisable and expressing the unsophisticated charm of the creations of honest childish hands. Irrelevancy is theirs, too. They spring from stones or pavement as well as from turf or garden, and thus express the more ardently their love for man and for close association with him.
"Some physicians believe in hypnotism; do you?" Katherine inquired, with apparent irrelevancy. "Well, under certain circumstances, it might be employed to advantage, but, as a rule, I am opposed to it." "We utterly repudiate it as a very dangerous and demoralizing practice; but, Dr. Stanley, would you think it right, under any circumstances, for a person to hypnotize you without your consent?"
"I reckon many another man might have thought he hadn't no errand there either, but I feel different about them things. I was just turned into the Square when along comes young John North " "What was he doing there?" suddenly asked Mrs. Shrimplin. "I expect he was attending strictly to his own business," retorted Mr. Shrimplin, offended by the utter irrelevancy of the question.
The procession of verbiage stalked on through four and five acts, no one venturing to predict what would come of it, when towards the winding up of the latter, Antonio, with an irrelevancy that seemed to stagger Elvira herself for she had been coolly arguing the point of honour with him suddenly whips out a poniard, and stabs his sister to the heart.
But his eyes had something wistful in their direct appeal, which perhaps the older man understood, for his expression was unusually kind as he asked with apparent irrelevancy, "Have you heard from Nina?" Derby flushed even under his tan, but he answered frankly: "Yes, I have had letters regularly bully ones full of Italy and the high nobility.
The sculptor started up suddenly and stood firmly, throwing back his splendid head and shoulders, and looking straight into the eyes of his friend. "Yes," he said in a clear, low voice. "I have changed. I -There is some one else." "Life," remarked Rangely, with seeming irrelevancy, "life is a fallacy."
But all things can happen in dreams. It is indeed as the Sweet Singer of Michigan says irrelevantly, of course, for the one and unfailing great quality which distinguishes her poetry from Shakespeare's and makes it precious to us is its stern and simple irrelevancy: My heart was gay and happy, This was ever in my mind, There is better times a coming, And I hope some day to find Myself capable of composing, It was my heart's delight To compose on a sentimental subject If it came in my mind just right.
His Honor was visibly affected and to cover it his methods being informal he said with sharp irrelevancy: "Who bailed this young feller out last night?" The sergeant spoke: "Why, Mr. Marston thar" with outstretched finger toward the young engineer. The Blight's black eyes leaped with exultant appreciation and the engineer turned crimson.
