"After all, it's not altogether a joke," he muttered. "I had to listen to that idiot Wulf jawing away all yesterday evening ... and if I remember right, he said something about being suspicious of that little Marie Pascal. I'll have to stop him making more blunders. He's quite capable of having her arrested.
"There you are," said Bowers, turning to the mate with a wave of his hand. "They're precious anxious about me so long as it's confined to jawing, and dropping tracts into my tea, but when it comes to a little hardship on their part, see how they back out of it." "We ain't backing out of it," said Dick cautiously; "but s'pose we do, how are we to be certain as you'll jine us?"
"It's nearly twelve o'clock, and I don't want to miss the fireworks. Besides, you fellows don't gain anything by all this jawing. You've been at it for an hour, and you're more tangled up now than when you started. My motto with a case of this kind is just to sit quiet and watch it; and pretty soon the rat thinks the coast is clear, and pokes out his head, and you nab him."
You'll keep them all jawing and make them late for their work! As it is, they don't do overmuch. Do you think my girls are wicked and that you are going to make them good and happy and save them and all that kind of thing?" MARGOT: "Not at all; I was not thinking of them, I am so very unhappy myself." If you've come here to ask me a favour, I might consider it."
Gradually she raises her voice and begins to lament. "You've no feelings, no you're heartless, that dreadful word you said to me, you said, 'You and your jawing! Ah! people don't know what I have to put up with ill-natured cart-horse!" In silence I hear the tear-streaming words that fall and founder in the dark room from that obscure blot on the pillow which is her face. I stand up.
I tells you vot, if you keeps jawing there, atween me and she, I shall vop you, Joe, cos vy? I be's the biggest!" was the answer of Beck the sweeper to Joe the ragamuffin. The jovial Joe laughed aloud, snapped his fingers, threw up his ragged cap with a shout for King Bill, and set off scampering and whooping to join those festivities which Beck had so churlishly disdained.
'It's no good jawing about it, he said, 'there isn't a word to say for the man. He hasn't a leg to stand on. Why, it would be bad enough in a House or form match even, but when it comes to first matches ! Here words failed Lorimer. 'Not at all, said Pringle, unmoved. 'There are heaps of reasons, jolly good reasons, why he might have gone away. 'Such as? said Lorimer.
"Sho! a man might keep jawing till crack o' doom, and not give you any idea of it without you heard it," answered Herb Heal, the dare-all moose-hunter. "The noise begins sort o' gently, like the lowing of a tame cow. It seems, if you're listening to it, to come rolling rolling along the ground.
The fellow on the left held my partner's missing suits; he made the Little Slam, and scored nearly six hundred below the line. It gave 'em the rubber, too, and I had to fork out a couple of quid." "What are you jawing about, Demon?" said Desmond. "Bridge. It's the new game. It's going to be the rage. Do you play bridge, Caesar?" "No. I want to learn it." "All right, I must teach you."
"And who in thunder is going to ask that?" Bat tapped the last item sharply with his pencil. "They'll read that and they'll read the other, and I'll bet dollars to doughnuts nine men out of ten will begin jawing and spouting and arguing that if there were no National Forests, there would be no Range Wars. If they draw a false impression, that's the public's look out.
