They were to me God's angels shining in coats of mail and fairy masquerading dresses. I envied them their beauty, their freedom.
Thus she is ready to the hand of the Continental fortune seeker masquerading as a nobleman occasionally but not often the black sheep of some noble family carrying not a bona fide but a courtesy title the count and the no-account, the lord and the Lord knows who!
I am, dear Lady Constantine, yours most faithfully, Not another word in the letter about his errand; his mind ran on nothing but this astronomical subject. He had succeeded in his mission, and yet he did not even say yes or no to the great question, whether or not her husband was masquerading in London at the address she had given. 'Was ever anything so provoking! she cried.
At twilight, when she took out her violin and played soft measures, perhaps a thought or two would be given to him. After what had happened this contemptible masquerading and the crisis through which her father had just passed it would be impossible for her to love him. She would always regard him with suspicion, as a witness of her innocent shame. He recalled the two wooden plates in the hamper.
No Machiavellian paraphernalia of agents provocateurs, no hooligans with false grey beards, masquerading as Jewish rioters or blasphemers. Artillery was calmly brought up against the Jewish quarter, as though Milovka were an enemy's town.
Recalling all he had heard of the masquerading, marauding excursions of the anti-renters, the soldier at once concluded he had encountered a party of them, bent upon some nefarious expedition. That he was taken for one of their number seemed equally evident. "Come!" called out the voice again, impatiently. "The patroon is at the manor with his city trollop. It's time we were moving."

We standing there cool as cucumbers in the front room of the house talking for half an hour and Veronica out in the kitchen all the while, masquerading as cook!" "You pretty nearly upset the surprise, though, Mistress Sahwah," said Nyoda, "with your suspicions in regard to my having a cook. It's next to impossible to take you in, you eagle-eyed Indian!
The tendency created by the splendid conquests of modern generalization, to believe that all social questions are merged in economical science, and that the relations of men to their neighbors may be settled by algebraic equations—the dream that the uncultured classes are prepared for a condition which appeals principally to their moral sensibilities—the aristocractic dilettantism which attempts to restore the “good old times” by a sort of idyllic masquerading, and to grow feudal fidelity and veneration as we grow prize turnips, by an artificial system of culture—none of these diverging mistakes can coexist with a real knowledge of the people, with a thorough study of their habits, their ideas, their motives.
