Tom is jilted is for a while in a dreadful state bores all his male acquaintance with his groans and his frenzy rallies from the complaint eats his dinner very kindly takes an interest in the next turf event, and is found at Newmarket, as usual, bawling out the odds which he will give or take.
What? Me daughter to be jilted, and me grey hairs dishonoured by an apothecary's son. By the laws of Heaven, Sir, I should like to see the man that shall do it." "I am to understand then that you threaten in the first place to publish the letters of a boy of eighteen to a woman of eight-and-twenty: and afterwards to do me the honour of calling me out," the Major said, still with perfect coolness.
And she was the same Julia whom he had loved, who had loved him, who had jilted him, and in regret for whom he had once resolved to lead a wretched, lonely life! Of course she must expect that he would renew it all unless, indeed, she knew of his engagement. But if she knew it, why had she not spoken of it?
Remembering what Grace had said of his love affair in Europe many years since, and adding to that the evident interest he felt in little Eloise Temple, the case was clear to her as daylight. The Swedish maiden was the girl who jilted Richard Harrington, and hence his love for Eloise, for she knew he did love her from his manner when speaking of her and the pains he had taken to find her.
There was McMann, who ran up a single bar-room bill of thirty-eight thousand dollars; and Jimmie the Rough, who spent one hundred thousand a month for four months in riotous living, and then fell down drunk in the snow one March night and was frozen to death; and Swiftwater Bill, who, after spending three valuable claims in an extravagance of debauchery, borrowed three thousand dollars with which to leave the country, and who, out of this sum, because the lady-love that had jilted him liked eggs, cornered the one hundred and ten dozen eggs on the Dawson market, paying twenty-four dollars a dozen for them and promptly feeding them to the wolf-dogs.

David continued to stand with his arm about Anna. He had heard the Belden gossip a wealthy young man from Boston had been attentive to her, then left the place; jilted her, some said; been refused by her, said others.
"Married, say you?" "Married to him that sent me hither a gentleman of winning ways and a most choice conceit, the scion of a noble house here in Verona one Romeo." The oddest little expression flitted over Juliet's face. There was never woman yet, even on her bridal day, could forgive a jilted lover marrying. "Ophelia wed!" murmured the bridegroom. "Do you know the lady, dear?"

Although Sinfi was still as splendid a woman as ever, I noticed a change in her. Her animal spirits had fled, and she had to me the appearance of a woman in trouble; but what her trouble was I could not guess, and I cannot now guess. Perhaps she had been jilted by some Gypsy swain. When Dr.
