I do not fancy Sam is matrimonially inclined at present, and he wouldn't leave us even to marry Desdemona herself. Good night, aunt." So saying, Tom went upstairs, where he repeated to Peter, who was still awake, his conversation with his aunt, and the two went into shouts of laughter over the idea of Sam making love to the prim Hannah. The next six months passed over quietly and happily.
It was a relief to have him away, for if drawn into an argument he still thumped his fists. For everyday living Beatrice preferred her own pet robins and angel-ducks, as she called the boys of the younger set, who flocked to flirt with her because she was extremely rich and pretty and they were in no danger of being matrimonially entangled. Of course Gaylord ate up this occult-name affair.
She is followed by her three daughters; two of them of no special attraction, but the youngest, Nera, dark and strikingly handsome. These three young ladies, all matrimonially inclined, but Nera specially, had carefully watched the instant when Nobili left his seat. Then they had followed him closely. It was intended that he should escort them home.
The poor woman, matrimonially, had a great deal to put up with; it took, at moments, all her belief in his genius to sustain her. He had carried her through things where she really didn't know what to think; there were moments when she suspected that she had lost the strong moral sense for which the Greenstreets were always so celebrated.
So down they sat together, and Ravenslee vowed the ham was all ham should be and the eggs beyond praise. And when his hunger was somewhat appeased, Mrs. Trapes leaned her bony elbows on the table and questioned him. "You ain't ever spoke to Hermy, have you, Mr. Geoffrey?" "Very often, lately." "I mean you ain't opened your 'eart to her matrimonially, have you?" "No!"
Two obstacles to the union of Hubert and Althea had disappeared. She had been proved to be matrimonially free, and he had become, from study and conviction, a full believer in her faith, of which he made open profession. The fact that they were cousins still remained.
Indeed, she was very soon taking consolation in the admiration excited by a pair of shining epaulets, which began about this time to gleam with considerable frequency in their neighbourhood. But mamma did not believe in officers, at least matrimonially speaking, and as to the consolation to be derived from a new flirtation, it was but doubtful and transitory at the best.
For a time it had seemed as if Cousin Gustus's lot had been cast entirely with the matrimonially unorthodox. And now Mrs. Gustus, for one impatient minute, wished that the children would pay more attention to their elderly and experienced guardian. It was too much to ask her a professional theory-maker to adapt her theories to the young and literal.
'The permanent absence of Somerset then is desirable architecturally on your account, matrimonially on mine. 'Matrimonially? By the way who was that captain you pointed out to me when the artillery entered the town? 'Captain De Stancy son of Sir William De Stancy. He's the husband. O, you needn't look incredulous: it is practicable; but we won't argue that.
"Of course, I have known a good many young men in my time, but those matrimonially inclined usually passed by on the other side." "Perhaps they knew I was coming on this side." "Perhaps There's papa. He looks lonesome. We ought to be ashamed of ourselves to hide from him as we did yesterday." "I agree; but he'll find us now." Lucy drew the father's attention, and he found a chair near them.
