"But, a nos moutons," resumed Lady Montfort. "You see now why I am so anxious for a conclusion of our affair. I think it is ripe?" "Why do you?" said Lord Roehampton. "Well, she must be very much in love with you." "Has she told you so?" "No; but she looks in love." "She has never told me so," said Lord Roehampton. "Have you told her?" "Well, I have not," said her companion.
"My brother," said Miss Diana, "is so odd; but he is the most generous of men: besides, the girl has claims upon him." Upon these speeches Mr. Glumford thought himself secure; and inly resolving to punish the fool for her sulkiness and bad taste as soon as he lawfully could, he continued his daily visits and told his sporting acquaintance that his time was coming. Revenons a nos moutons.
Meanwhile, I see as little of him as good breeding will permit. On the face of a rich man's heir is written the rich man's memento mori! But revenons a nos moutons. Yes, if you give your daughter no fortune, your death will be so much the more profitable to Arthur!" "Really, you take such a very odd view of the matter," said Mr. Beaufort, exceedingly shocked.
For an example of the results look to St. Domingo! Under peculiar guidance, and subject to a certain restraint, the negro may be an important and most useful being; but if treated as an Englishman, he will affect the vices but none of the virtues of civilization, and his natural good qualities will be lost in his attempts to become a "white man."

If one may believe the papers, which one should not believe, the other side of the waterists are not doux comme des moutons, and yet we do intend to eat them. I was in town on Monday; the Duchess of Beaufort graced our loo, and made it as rantipole as a Quaker's meeting. Loois Quinze, I believe, is arrived by this time, but I fear without quinze louis.
"The vile moutons! their fleece is not worth the shearing!" exclaimed Bigot angrily, at the mention of the Golden Dog, which, as he glanced upwards, seemed to glare defiantly upon him. "Clear the way, villains!" cried Bigot loudly, while darting his horse into the crowd. "Plunge that Flanders cart-horse of yours into them, Cadet, and do not spare their toes!"
The dandy horse of past days has been known to overtake the SLOW COACH. "Do I make myself understood? "Very well, then! Permit me, Mr. Pooter, to advise you to accept the verb. sap. Acknowledge your defeat, and take your whipping gracefully; for remember you threw down the glove, and I cannot claim to be either mentally or physically a COWARD! "Revenons a nos moutons.
It was as though time were being allowed for the giving and receiving of a few of those thirty kisses. Then the voice sang on: "Le lendemain Phillis peu sage Aurait donne moutons et chien Pour un baiser que le volage A Lisette donnait pour rien." The last note died away into an uninterrupted silence. "Are you better?" Denis whispered. "Are you comfortable like this?"

He was the master, the protector. A wave of courage swelled through him, warm as wine.
