On the same evening Maliwe went to a certain tree, just at the back of old Dalisile's huts, and gave a long, low whistle, which was the established signal between himself and Nalai. Unfortunately, however, Nalai did not hear him, but her two big brothers, Kawana and Joli, did. Old Dalisile, anticipating Maliwe's visit, had kept Nalai out of the way, and put his two sons to watch.
"I only ran in to say Bon jour. I must leave you now." "Adieu, my dear boy, not a word on the miniature! By the by, here's a shirt-pin for you, tu es joli comme un amour." All was clear now to Gabriel; it was necessary to get rid of him, and forever.
Il n'y a rien sur la terre De si joli que vous. "Un petit blanc que j'aime " A quick flush mantled her sister's face, and she put her hand over the mischievous mouth, exclaiming, "Don't, Flora! don't!" The roguish little creature went laughing and capering out of the room, and her voice was still heard singing, "Un petit blanc que j'aime."
Or what say you to UN PETIT PENDEMENT BIEN JOLI? against which awkward ceremony I don't warrant you, should you meet a body of the armed west-country Whigs. 'And why should they use me so? said Waverley.
So foxes talk, do they! They talk like crows! Mind what you are about, oh, wise tutor; weigh your answer before you give it, it is more important than you suspect. "Eh! Bonjour, Monsieur le Corbeau!" Those who say "Monsieur du Corbeau" will find their work cut out for them to explain that "du." "Que vous etes joli! Que vous me semblez beau!"
He refused the hospitality, defying the danger that such lack of good-fellowship might bring forth. He hummed in patches to himself the words of a song that the 'brules' were wont to sing when they hunted the buffalo: "'Voila! it is the sport to ride Ah, ah the brave hunter! To thrust the arrow in his hide, To send the bullet through his side 'Ici, the buffalo, 'joli! Ah, ah the buffalo!"
Now, give me leave to speak on affairs. I have seen your cousin Enguerrand de Vandemar. Homme de moyens, though joli garcon. He proposed that you should call on me. I said 'no' to the cher petit Enguerrand, a visit from me was due to you. To cut matters short, M. Gandrin has allowed me to look into your papers. I was disposed to serve you from the first; I am still more disposed to serve you now.
She even seemed not properly to have noticed him: nothing of his looks, of the changes in his countenance, had touched her heart or dwelt in her memory that he was "beau, mais plutot bel homme que joli garcon," was all she could assert. My patience would often have failed, and my interest flagged, in listening to her, but for one thing.
Here Gandrin returned with the cigars; but Alain at that time never smoked, and Louvier excused himself, with a laugh and a sly wink, on the plea that he was going to pay his respects as doubtless that joli garcon was going to do likewise to a belle dame who did not reckon the smell of tobacco among the perfumes of Houbigant or Arabia.
Without doubt Monsieur was rich; and in that case he might make a canal boat as pretty as a villa joli comme un château. And with that they invited me on board their own water villa. They apologized for their cabin; they had not been rich enough to make it as it ought to be.
