Encore him, and he plays you a national piece. A dark little creature a Life-guardsman could hold-up on his outstretched hand for the fifteen minutes of the performance; but he fills the hall and thrills the heart, wafts you to heaven; and does it as though he were conversing with his Andalusian lady-love in easy whispers about their mutual passion for Spanish chocolate all the while: so the musical critic of the Tirra-Lirra says.
Blackmail," philosophized the astute Ives, "is a gun that you've got to keep pointed all the time." "I see. So long as he has Bussey covered by the muzzle of The Patriot, The Searchlight behaves itself." "It does. But if ever he laid down his gun, Bussey would make hash of him and his lady-love." "What about her?" interrogated Marrineal.
It was written on paper such as was made in the sixteenth century, and in an extraordinarily precise imitation of Medea da Carpi's characters. Who had written it? I thought over all the possible people. On the whole, it must be the Vice-Prefect's son, perhaps in combination with his lady-love, the Countess.
Whatever she may say, my heart and desire will remain the same, and though I were to lose my life for it, I couldn't consent to this exchange. Grannonia could keep silence no longer, and throwing off her peasant's disguise, she discovered herself to the Prince, who was nearly beside himself with joy when he recognised his fair lady-love.
Young man and his lady-love attended a protracted meeting which was being held in the village church. Arriving late they found the church filled, but a gentleman arose and gave the lady his seat, while the young man was ushered far away to a seat in another part of the building. The service grew warm and impressive. "Will those who want our prayers please stand up?" said the preacher.
From jests to jibes, from taunts to blows, was then, as ever, an easy path; and in reply to some unchivalric remark concerning his lady-love, Douglas struck the slanderer with all his might.
Then Jose would return to writing a letter to his lady-love; not that there was any-thing to tell her, but because writing on the official paper of the consulate gave him importance in his eyes, and in hers. And in the inner office the consul would continue to gaze at the empty harbor, the empty coral reefs, the empty, burning sky.
Sir Victor was immersed in his building projects and his lady-love; Lady Helena, ever since the coming and going of the lady in black, had not been the same. Powyss place was a pleasant house, but enough was enough. They were ready to say good-by and be off to "fresh fields and pastures new."
It was too bad of you, Miss Gussie, to expose a poor fellow's feelings in that way. I ought to have posted my broken-hearted appeal before I came in here, but I thought I might be able to think of some stronger language that would touch the hard heart of my lady-love. I am not in luck, as you can guess; but do not, I beg of you, let it go any farther.
"You must shew them to the gentleman," said Leah, possibly in concert with her father. Moses said nothing, but went out to get the horses harnessed. "I will look at them," I said to Leah, "but I won't buy, as I should not know what to do with them." "You can take your lady-love out for a drive." "That would be you; but perhaps you would be afraid!"
