Her eyes spied all about, and seemed quite tiny and piercing as she looked up at him, and laughed and jested. He started back. It was exactly as if he again saw the snake beneath the birch tree down there when it trundled away. And now he wanted to be off as quickly as possible; he cared no longer about being civil. Then she reared up with a hissing sound.
Dromio wondering that his master should send him back to the strange house where he dined, and from which he had just before been in such haste to depart, did not dare to reply, though he came to tell his master the ship was ready to sail; for he saw Antipholis was in no humour to be jested with.
"You give a shower of plans to-day," jested Malvina. "A portrait, flight from the rod, America." "A ball!" exclaimed Cara, raising her head. "Do you know of it, Maryan? In a few weeks we shall have a real ball a grand one." "Your tale is curious, little one, tell on," answered Maryan. "When talk is the question, there is never need to beg Cara twice."
In this way I came to Wieland, not to your son. I had never seen Wieland, but I pretended to be an old acquaintance. He thought and thought, and finally said, "You certainly are a dear familiar angel, but I can't seem to remember when and where I have seen you." I jested with him and said, "Now I know that you dream of me, for you can't possibly have seen me elsewhere!"
"No, indeed," was the prompt rejoinder; "I envy them. It must be fine to have large things to do, and to be able to do them." "Degenerate scion of a noble race!" jested Adams. "What ancient Carteret of them all would have compromised with the necessities by becoming a captain of industry?" "It wasn't their metier, or the metier of their times," said Miss Virginia with conviction.
When the subjugated towns of Capua and Atella were abandoned without restraint to the unbridled wit of the Roman farce, so that the latter town became its very stronghold, and when other writers of comedy jested over the fact that the Campanian serfs had already learned to survive amidst the deadly atmosphere in which even the hardiest race of slaves, the Syrians, pined away; such unfeeling mockeries re-echoed the scorn of the victors, but not less the cry of distress from the down-trodden nations.
Now, coming from bright sunshine into the cool shadow of the place, I was dazzled at first; but Kolgrim's eyes were quick, and we had hardly crossed the threshold, if I might call it so, when he plucked at my cloak. "Master," he whispered, "let me bide with the men; this is no place for me." "Hush," I whispered; "the king is yonder." "Ay, master let me go the king is Godred whom I jested with."
But he and all his comrades carried themselves bravely. Now there was long converse between the king and these chiefs, and it seemed that peace would be made. Yet Alfred's face was hard as he spoke to them not like the bright looks with which he had jested with us just now, or the earnest kingly regard which had gone with his words of thanks.
We shall have a crush at the Madeleine in the morning and another at the Comedie in the evening. You are quite right, too; there will be several hearts throbbing in the Rue Godot-de-Mauroy." Thereupon they again became merry, and jested about the Duvillard family father, mother, lover and daughter with the greatest possible ferocity and crudity of language.
"You may think it's pretty strange, my asking you for help. Won't you set? I can't let you come inside because the baby's just got to sleep." "Well," he assented, "if you're not afraid to be seen with such an infidel in the full light of day," he jested, confronting her from the log where he sank. "What would Brother Gillespie say?"
