And then and then it is Chloe, in the dark, stark awake, and Strephon snoring unheeding; or vice versa, 'tis poor Strephon that has married a heartless jilt, and awoke out of that absurd vision of conjugal felicity, which was to last for ever, and is over like any other dream. One and other has made his bed, and so must lie in it, until that final day when life ends, and they sleep separate.
Now, Nina was determined that she would marry the Jew, though heaven and earth should meet in consequence. She would marry him if he would marry her. They had told her that the Jew would jilt her. She did not put much faith in the threat; but even that was more probable than that she should jilt him.
Mosely was drawn again within the circle, and was obliged to confess that he thought it was very shocking, in either sex, to jilt. "If I were a man," continued the belle, "I would never think of a young woman who had once jilted a lover. To my mind, it bespeaks a bad heart, and a woman with a bad heart cannot make a very amiable wife." "What an exceedingly clever creature she is," whispered Mr.
These we gave with a relish, and they produced the right effect, and a little more; for the crazy machine turned out into the deep snow by the side of the road, and the skinny old pony started on a full trot. As we passed, some one who had the whip gave the jilt of a horse a good crack, which made him run faster than he ever did before, I'll warrant.
Thus did they not value fortune a button, and cared no more for the goods of this world than you or I do for hanging. And to show how much they defied that blind jilt, all of them wore, not in their hands like her, but at their waist, instead of beads, sharp razors, which they used to new-grind twice a day and set thrice a night.
One great passion he had had and closed the account of it: a worldly ambitious girl how foolishly worshipped and passionately beloved no matter had played with him for years; had flung him away when a dissolute suitor with a great fortune and title had offered himself. Was he to whine and despair because a jilt had fooled him?
"She certainly encouraged him." "I think it more than probable." "Is it possible, then, that she did really jilt the young man?" exclaimed aunt Rachel. "This has been said of her," I replied. "But, as far as I can learn, she was really attached to him, and suffered great pain in rejecting his offer.
"Had he been a man to bear a jilt ill-will he would have told me of his good fortune in crowing tones; instead of doing that he mentioned not a word, in deference to my misfortunes, and merely implied that he loved me still, as one superior to him." Wildeve's silence that day on what had happened to him was just the kind of behaviour calculated to make an impression on such a woman.
"When I came out of Oxford into the world, my patrons promised me great things; and you see where their promises have landed me, in a lodging up two pair of stairs, with a sixpenny dinner from the cook's shop. Well, I suppose this promise will go after the others, and fortune will jilt me, as the jade has been doing any time these seven years.
He came hither, as I supposed, to pay court to Miss: and we all thought the match equal, and I encouraged it. "'What more natural than that he should marry my housekeeper's daughter 'twas a very suitable match! continues Madam, taking snuff. 'But I confess, she adds, going on, 'I was not aware that you intended to jilt the apothecary for my son! "'Peace, for Heaven's sake, peace, Mr.
