It was big and lofty and light, and there were all kinds of delightful things in it books and flowers and playthings and pictures, and in one corner a great cage full of lovebirds. "Have I ever seen it before?" asked Jem, glancing slowly round. "Yes," said Flora; "you saw it last night in your mind. Don't you remember it?" Jem shook her head. "I feel as if I did, but "
So he settled on using his 'voice of authority': "Hey, Lovebirds!" The Lovebirds jumped slightly and turned toward the voice, as if unaware that anyone else had been in the room. "Any idea where Seltsam Street or Avenue or whatever it is might be?" "Seltsam? Sounds German," Alona said. "Seltsam Way?" Tom asked. "Could be," Ritchie said. "That's that cul de sac that ends up behind the theater."
And letting her lace wraps fall about her, sinking into the cushions, leaning forward, both arms folded on his chest, this recklessly, impulsive; black-browed woman looked her prisoner full in the eyes. Being a man, his face softened. She saw it, and there was a moment's silence save for the cooing of the lovebirds hanging in their gilded cage in the roseate light.
Then, I used to stop at village fairs and take in a nice bit of silver. For my missus could play the concertina, and I had a cage of lovebirds that could tell fortunes and do tricks." A strange voice spoke from the passage behind the shop. "Ay. Comical tricks lovebirds do. And cruel tricks, love. I've been tricked by 'em." "Better lie down, Ada," said Martindale. "Or make tea. That'll quiet ye."
I was always a better correspondent than you were, Vincent. Just then Dolly came, holding a cage of lovebirds. 'Champion said you were here, she began. 'Vincent, wait till I put Jachin and Boaz down. Now you can kiss me. I knew you wouldn't go away without saying good-bye to me. You haven't seen my birds, have you? Papa gave them to me.
Then he spied the lovebirds. With passionate fury he attacked them both at once, tearing their plumage impartially; his eye already selecting the next victim. Though my heart thumped with apprehension, my mouth was stretched in a broad grin. I felt that I should never tire of the spectacle before me. I realized that I had always hated the stuffed birds.
We haven't had a decent rag since the war began. We all sit round cooing at each other like beastly little green lovebirds in a cage. It can't last long, of course. Sooner or later somebody's bound to break out and try to bite; but for the present Parliament's the dullest place in Europe." I began to feel slightly interested.
As it never occurred to Dolly that anybody could have the bad taste to prefer any one else's conversation to her own, she took entire possession of Vincent, throwing herself into the couch nearest to him, and pouring out her views on lovebirds generally to his absent ear. 'They don't know me yet, she concluded, 'but then I've only had them six months.
Want to get in an' play with them, old chap? See the pretty oriole? An' the owl, Coppertoes. Lovebirds, too. Want to get in, little fellow? Such a bully big cage you never saw." I opened the door of the glass case, and cautiously introduced the bird cage. I opened the door of the cage. Coppertoes paid no heed but busied himself in pecking sharply at his lump of sugar.
The bridal couple were from somewhere in the central part of Ohio and they were taking their honeymoon tour; but, if I were a bridal couple from the central part of Ohio and had never been to sea before, as was the case in this particular instance, I should take my honeymoon ashore and keep it there. I most certainly should! This couple of ours came aboard billing and cooing to beat the lovebirds.
