At the same time, Vaura, who had turned again to her lines from Madame, on reading over, said as she discussed her luncheon. "This bit of duck will be a palatable morceau as compared with my letter from Haughton; Madame does not write to please, she merely pleases to write." Seeing Trevalyon very grave and silent, she said with kindly intent, and to change the current of his thought.
They had to hold their heads back to swallow the morçeau it was evidently hard work. Several dogs were killed in succession, when, seeing some of the warriors looking pale and deadly sick, Captain E. determined to try how many of their enemies' hearts they could dispose of. He went down among the Indians and purchased another dog. They could not refuse to eat the heart.
This morceau being sealed and directed, was forthwith carried by our adventurer to the lodgings of the major, who had by this time retired to rest, but hearing the Count's voice, he got up and opened the door in cuerpo, to the astonishment of Ferdinand, who had never before seen such an Herculean figure.
This morceau of the finest eloquence touched me to my very soul; it is the privilege of superior writers sometimes, unwittingly, to solace the unfortunate in all countries, and at all times. France was in a state of such complete silence around me, that this voice which suddenly responded to my soul, seemed to me to come down from heaven; it came from a land of liberty.
"Your own composition?" asked my mother. "A mere morceau," replied my friend, modestly, "tossed off to fill up a gap in the Evergreen." "You should write poetry," said I. "Think so?

"She is smaller since la Croizette looked to kill," said Lady Esmondet. "The fire from the eyes of Croizette was too much for her; she has gone to hide within herself," said Vaura.
If Romeo before he flung up his ladder of ropes had paused, like Mertoun, to salute his mistress with a tenor morceau from the opera, it is to be feared that runaways' and other eyes would not have winked, and that old Capulet would have come upon the scene in his night-gown, prepared to hasten the catastrophe with a long sword.
I had conceived, that there would be no more difference between French and Patois, than between the better and the lower dialects of Scotch and English; but the very words are here changed: A carter asked the landlord with whom we were conversing, for a "Peetso morcel du bosse," "petit morceau du bois."
When they came to consider the Murder of the Innocents by Le Brun, the Swiss observed, that it was un beau morceau, and Mr. Pallet replied, "Yes, yes, one may see with half an eye, that it can be the production of no other; for Bomorso's style both in colouring and drapery, is altogether peculiar: then his design is tame, and his expression antic and unnatural.
And so we went to jeer a group of enthusiasts that willingly forfeit all delights of the world in the hope of realising a new aestheticism; we went insolent with patent leather shoes and bright kid gloves and armed with all the jargon of the school.
