I believe in dreams, visions, and returned spirits of the dead. But, ah! I do not believe in made-up ghosts. Oh, you cold-blooded English people, don't mistake the impulsive Egyptian; don't accuse him of lack of faith in the unseen.

He reckoned out her age again, and he did not see how she could be less than forty. It made the affair ridiculous. She was plain and old.

"Your father's intelligence is so high, and his principles so low, that there is no scheme which he does not think that he cannot carry out against the established laws of his country. His present tale is a made-up fable." "What do you say, Merton?" asked Mountjoy.
"The history of your last literary quarrel!" Dinah observed. "For pity's sake, come back to the Duke of Bracciano," cried Monsieur de Clagny. To the despair of all the company, Lousteau went on with the made-up sheet. I then wished to make sure of my misfortune that I might be avenged under the protection of Providence and the Law. The Duchess guessed my intentions.
As I once loved you I love you now, Harriet, without one jot of abatement; but you are not the woman you were you once were honest towards me; and now you conceal your heart in made-up speeches. Let it be: I can never see you again. 'You need not say that in such a tragedy tone, you silly. You may see me in an ordinary way why should you not? But, of course, not in such a way as this.
Jekyll, with her brilliantly made-up face, her apparent lack of guile, and her ever-watchful eye.
