For he mixes up unanswerable things with false conclusions, he is perpetually letting the cat out of the bag and exposing our tricks, putting a colour to our actions, disturbing us with our own memory, indecently revealing corners of the soul.
For this purpose, if Mansong will permit me to pass, I propose sailing down the Joliba to the place where it mixes with the salt water; and if I find no rocks or danger in the way, the white men's small vessels will come up and trade at Sego, if Mansong wishes it.
A check-action must be occasionally employed. Agreed! But, Mr. Omicron, you should choose a time and a tone for employing it other than you chose on this evening that I have described. A man who mixes up jewelled rings with undertone mutton and feeble coffee is a clumsy man. Exercise your imagination to put yourself in the place of Mrs.
The shadows of crocodiles and antique gods flicker on walls and ceiling from a gusty flame as he writes; and in the end he writes the spell out wrongly and mixes up with the valleys where he would rest dark bits of the regions of Hell. So one sees Albert again and its Happy Valley.

She mixes all things up, but there are none in regard to which she hasn't perceptions. She sees things in a perspective as if from the top of the Himalayas and she enlarges everything she touches. Above all she exaggerates to herself, I mean.
It's my belief as God-a-mighty mixes Hisself up in it more nor we think. But there WAS nothing amiss with him, was there, my sweet? Mrs Caffyn inclined her head towards Madge. 'Oh, no! Nothing, nothing. 'Don't you think, my dear, if there's nothing atwixt you, as it was a flyin' in the face of Providence to turn him off?
Lady Everington has been criticised for stony-heartedness, for opportunism, and for selfish abuse of her husband's vast wealth.
