Now when we were in Rhodesia ..." and she paused, regarding him with the bright, piquant eyes of a small bird. "Well, what about Rhodesia? You didn't find much brilliance there, I imagine? Brilliance does not thrive on bully beef and existence in a mud hut." "Neither does 'back-veldt' obtuseness and narrow-minded bigotry and indiscreet loquacity, Meinheer van Hert."

This merchant's name was Meinheer Bonstett. A Venetian senator with his wife and daughter, both extremely beautiful. The senator's name was Signor Marini. A Scottish laird, with seven highlanders of his clan, all on foot. The laird's name was MacCumnor. An Austrian from Vienna without title or coat of arms, who had arrived in a carriage; a good deal of the priest, and something of the soldier.

"You must do more than pity," said Quentin, turning towards the speaker, "you must assist in protecting us, Meinheer Pavillon. Be assured this lady was put under my especial charge by your ally the King of France, and, if you aid me not to shelter her from every species of offence and violence, your city will lose the favour of Louis of Valois.

At the turn from the Wakkerstroom road, that you came along to-day, they put the girls down, for they had no luggage with them, and told them that if they went along there they would come to Meinheer Croft's house.

Not that I hold with ostriches in this veldt; they are well enough in the old colony, but they won't breed here at least, not as they should do. I tried them once and I know; oh, yes, I know." "Yes, it's a very fine country, Meinheer. I have been all over the world almost, and I never saw a finer." "You don't say so, now! Almighty, what a thing it is to have travelled!

The smooth-faced man with the tusk rose at once with a sigh, put down the steel fork with which he had been operating, and departed, recognising that Meinheer Muller was not a commanding officer to be trifled with, but his companion, the Vilderbeeste, demurred.

"Meinheer van Hert," said she, coming down from her table and taking a step forward to confront him, "for any man with your political views to talk about including Rhodesia in the Union solely for the sake of a United South Africa and for her own good, is the veriest cant.

Yes ... together we might do so much...." "When you come back ..." he said, and pressed her hand in understanding. Then Diana stepped out of the brightness of the drawing-room. "How can you two stay sleepily there, looking at the stars like two cats, when I am trying to lure you indoors with the latest comic-opera music! Meinheer van Hert, Mister Pym says, will you drink with him?..."

"I do not wish to quarrel with anybody, Meinheer Muller," he answered at length. "I never do quarrel unless it is forced on me, and then," he added grimly, "I do my best to make it unpleasant for my enemy. The other day you attacked first my servant and then myself.

Thalermacher the rich Jew, soldiers, the entire court, Meinheer, all in despair; a regular sack. Not only Kugelblitz, but Demboffsky, the Russian officer, killed. O hep! hep! a lamentable tragedy. “For they were two such fine-looking young men,” mourned the chambermaid, “especially Demboffsky.” “You had better,” said the landlord, “stay in Carlsruhe till to-morrow.”
