She laughed aloud.
Hammond; and though I doubt not he agrees with me in my abhorrence of the custom, I have never heard him mention the subject." "Hypocrite! hypocrite! Meek little wolf in lamb's wool! Do you dream that you can deceive me? Do you think me an idiot, to be cajoled by your low-spoken denials of a fact which I know? A fact, to the truth of which I will swear till every star falls!" "Mr.
The young wife's reserve broke down a little before the keen glance that accompanied the words. "I oh, I'm interested in his spiritual development," she stammered, weakly. "Anyhow," she added defensively, "he doesn't know it!" "Thank heaven, you're still moral!" Mrs. Delancy ejaculated, in accents of huge relief. "I think I must be," was the low-spoken admission, "because because I'm so unhappy!"
Suspecting mischief, I went to the paling fence that separated our ground from the Faringfields', and called out, "Who's that?" "Hallo, Bert!" came in a very conciliating tone, low-spoken; and then, as with a sudden thought, "Come over here, will you?"

Moreover, he was for the moment too staggered by the low-spoken information to concentrate his attention upon persuasion. Her utter quietness silenced him.
It seemed as if these new arrivals had not come to the theatre for mere amusement. They glanced threateningly around them, as if seeking a concealed enemy. In passing Lupinus they greeted him with a few low-spoken words, or a warm pressure of the hand. These students were the special friends of Joseph Fredersdorf.

Three of the soldiers laid their cloaks on the earth for her feet; six others let down the litter and Menes assisted her into the sumptuous conveyance Rameses had sent. Another soldier, after rapid and low-spoken instructions from the captain, whirled his horse about, saluted and took the road toward Tanis at a gallop.
My nerves vibrated to those low-spoken words as they had never vibrated to thunder. I looked at Mr. Rochester; I made him look at me. His face was colourless rock; his eye both spark and flint; he seemed as if he would defy all things. "Mr. Mason, have the goodness to step forward," said the stranger.
"Right foot -high foot" had been one of their old kicking signals on the Gridley High School eleven! Lieutenant Dick Prescott fairly throbbed as he now understood the covered signal. "Now!" left Reade's lips with explosive energy, though the word was low-spoken. At "right foot -high foot" and "now" each youth suddenly shot his right foot up into the air.
