Everything that she read of in that way, which could possibly be imitated, was attempted. She had her bows and arrows, and by original fitness, as well as by constant practice, she became an excellent markswoman. She had her well-trained horse, and her vaulting bars, and made nothing of flying over a high fence or a wide ditch. But her last whim was the most eccentric of all. She had her lance.
He was certain that no door communicated with it from the public passage, and he could not remember having passed one that first afternoon when La Belle Chasseuse brought him and Fairholme into the billiard-room to display her prowess as a markswoman. It was certainly a curious apartment, and for some undefinable reason he could not prevent his mind from dwelling upon its possible uses.
She must bear no goodwill to Sir Ralph; and if she should espy him from her tower, she may testify her recognition with a cloth-yard shaft. She is not so infallible a markswoman, but that she might shoot at a crow and kill a pigeon. She might peradventure miss the knight, and hit me, who never did her any harm." "Tut, tut, man," said brother Michael, "there is no such fear."
The old man who keeps the range, picks out for her his best arrows tipped with white and red feathers, and she takes aim with a serious air. The mark is a circle, traced in the middle of a picture on which is painted in flat gray tones, terrifying chimera flying through the clouds. Chrysanthème is certainly an adroit markswoman, and we admire her as much as she expected.

"Oh, Dick!" cried Polly in a breath, with a fearful glance at the boy lying there. "I think he's all right, Polly." She dared say no more, for Dick had not stirred. Polly clasped her hands, and rushed out almost into Jasper's face. "A burglar a burglar!" and he dashed into Mrs. Chatterton's room. "Don't interfere," said Mrs. Chatterton. "I'm a splendid markswoman."

If the excessively womanly woman is affected in her sickly sweetness, the mannish woman is affected in her breadth and roughness. She adores dogs and horses, which she places far above children of all ages. She boasts of how good a marksman she is she does not call herself markswoman and how she can hit right and left, and bring down both birds flying.
