Across Benham's skies these fly-blown trophies of devilry dangled mockingly in the place of God. He had no thought but to get away. Presently they encountered a detachment of Turkish soldiers, very greasy and ragged, with worn-out boots and yellow faces, toiling up the stony road belatedly to the village.
"Could I count on you not molesting me again if I were to pay you?" the lady said mockingly. "You could." "Do you ever speak the truth?" "You needn't judge every one by your own standard of morality the standard set up by the millionaire's wife," Kelson said. "I swear that if you pay me a thousand dollars I will never trouble you again."
"I'll ask you to be good enough to pay our bill, then. If you're making off because you can't pay your other debts it's no affair of mine." He bowed mockingly. "You are real kind. Can't think how much obliged I am for your tactful reminder; but it don't happen to be my financial affairs that I came to introdooce to your notice."
"I don't see any analogy between truth-telling and peaches," said the calm voice from the corner. "You tell the truth all the year round, don't you, Bess?" said Kitty, with a little malice. "But we are mortal, and don't attempt to practice exotic virtues," said Percival, mockingly.
"Yes," he responded, "well well, indeed, at last!" She bowed mockingly. "And," he went on, "I have been searching for you a long time, Opal!" He had not intended to say that, but having said it, he would not take it back. Then she remembered that she had said that she would call him "Paul" the first time she met him, and she smiled. "Searching for me? I don't understand." "Of course not!
As with a shout of joy it stormed the ascent, so that it seemed to fly out into the air at the top, before it was engulfed by the next hollow. And mockingly, already at an incredible distance, the "too-oot, too-oot" would come back to him, its bawling tones seeming to ooze away. The low curs! Their love for this road was like that of the sportsman for the shy pigeons: love to shoot them.
The old man asked in his simplicity: "Madjor Shaughnessy?" Mazaro smiled mockingly. "Mayor Shaughness'," he said; "oh, no; not Mayor Shaughness'!" Pauline could stay no longer; escape she must, though it be in Manuel Mazaro's very face. Turning again and looking up into Galahad's face in a great fright, she opened her lips to speak, but
"Now you pay attention, to me," he said. "You've paid for your ole poem, and we got to have some peace around here. I'm goin' straight over to your mother and ask her to come and get you." Florence gave up. "What difference would that make, Mister Taddletale?" she inquired mockingly.
Saw him tremble from head to foot, like a tree about to fall, waiting but for the last stroke of the axe. Well, he should have it.... "Well how does it feel?" He bowed mockingly, and went on with a sneer: "Wish you joy.... I've more reason, perhaps, than the others, seeing we're partners, so to speak, in the same...." "Liar devil coward!" Olof's rage broke loose.
I began to whimper and cry out. Lop-Ear chattered mockingly at me, and, springing upon me unseen, tumbled me over. He did not risk a second encounter, however, and took himself off. I was between him and the entrance, and he did not pass me; yet he seemed to have gone away. I listened, but could get no clew as to where he was. This puzzled me, and when I regained the outside I sat down to watch.
