"If she wants me, I'll come," said Booth in the most matter-of-fact way. Leslie settled down with a secret sigh of relief. He regained his usual loquaciousness. The points of his little moustache resumed their uprightness. "How do you like Sara?" he asked. It was a casual question, with no real meaning behind it as it was uttered.
But his fever was too high when we got there, and he couldn't take a thing. 'That doesn't matter, he said to his mother. 'Just the sight of them makes my mouth water, and I feel better already." My Provençal neighbour could no longer resist. His natural loquaciousness got the better of his reserve.
Divorce was common, and all in favour of the husband, who, while he could not be divorced by her, could put his wife away for disobedience or even for loquaciousness.

She never can think of anything to say except that she is still alive and hopes I am, and that her esteem for me is undiminished. Dear Spartan Judy!"
"Look here, you've got a deal too much talk to be jannic, you have," cried Liza, with an emphasis intended to convey a sense of profound contempt of loquaciousness in general and of Mrs. Garth's loquaciousness in particular. Mrs. Garth's first impulse was to shame her adversary out of her warlike attitude with a little biting banter.
