"Look here, wee Fish, you offer me money again and I'll I'll undress you and run away with your clothes. I will, upon my soul." "I shall call to this policeman," gasped the Haddock. "And appear with your low-class relation in Court? Not you, Haddock. I'd swear you were my twin brother, and that you wouldn't pay me the four pence you borrowed of me last week."
Men associate without any limit but that of inclination and financial capacity. Even class distinction only works one way the low-class man may not mingle with high-class women; but the high-class man may and does mingle with low-class women. It is his society may not a man do what he will with his own? Caste distinctions, as have been ably shown by Prof.
I am a Yankee, and I have been known to bloom, but I can't stand having a low-class Britisher apply that term to me as if it were an opprobrious thing to be, so I tried once more to kick him with my knee. Again my knee passed through him, and this time took the policeman himself in the vicinity of his pistol-pocket.
The low-class novel is purposely pitched in a style that will be easily understood; but even so, there is a great deal of word- and phrase-skipping to be done by many illiterate readers, who are quite satisfied if they can extract the general sense as they go along.
Sometimes they walked along the bottom, stirring to right and left of them a host of low-class life, slimy leeches, dingy crustaceans of every imaginable kind. Sometimes they traversed the middle deeps, brushing against the beetles and the boatmen and the water-snails. Sometimes they sunned themselves on the surface, snapping idly at the measurers and whirligigs.
He had a pretty manner for a common sailor, didn't he? And his voice these low-class English people have wonderfully well-bred, soft voices. I suppose it's particularly so here in the South. Cousin Mary, did you see the look he gave you with those delicious dark eyes? It's always the way gentleman or hod-carrier no one has a chance with men when you are about."
There remained but one part to fill, that of the father of the serving-maid, an uncouth sort of drinking-man, quite low-class, who, in my opinion, should never have been allowed on the stage at all, since no moral lesson is taught by him. It was in the casting of this part that Mr. Jackson showed himself of a forgiving nature.
"It is not nonsense," insisted the other, "when you are in Rome, et cetera, and when you have to deal with a low-class Greek you must use methods which will at least impress him. If you thrash him, he will never forgive you and will probably stick a knife into you or your wife.
Other teachers roused their young pupils to fury, after the death of the ex-Emperor, by employing openly of him the phrase which ordinarily indicates a low-class coolie. In the East, where honorifics and exact designations count for much, no greater insults could be imagined.
'That's my paper, it seemed to say, 'by all the rights of man; and that low-class fellow sellin' it, takin' away my profits! "I sells this 'ere Westminister. I reads it on Sundays it's a gentleman's paper, 'igh-class paper notwithstandin' of its politics.
