"'Zounds! thought I, as a pang of jealousy shot through my heart, 'is it the major she means? For old Belson, with his bag wig and rouged cheeks, was seated on the other side of her. "'What a dear thing it is! said Polly. "'Worse and worse, said I; 'it must be him. "'I do so love his muzzy face. "'It is him! said I, throwing off a bumper, and almost boiling over with passion at the moment.
The E. I. H. has been thrown into a quandary by the strange phenomenon of poor Tommy Bye, whom I have known, man and madman, twenty-seven years, he being elder here than myself by nine years and more. He was always a pleasant, gossiping, half-headed, muzzy, dozing, dreaming, walk-about, inoffensive chap, a little too fond of the creature, who isn't at times?
The next moment we saw him draw his cutlass and brandish it over his head, and a loud shout came across to us in a voice I knew full well. "Come on, you beggars, I've taken the fort!" It was old Muzzy, the boatswain of the Fair Maid. Not for long did we hesitate, but rushing down into the ditch after him we were speedily in the fort.
"My dear boy, I am very sorry your secretary's muzzy has died but I cannot change my plans. I accepted for both Trudy Vondeplosshe and myself more than a week ago." Steve wondered if he had heard correctly. "You don't imagine for an instant that Trudy will not go? She boarded there; they did everything for her." Beatrice shrugged her shoulders.
"The Archbishop of York," said he, speaking of a late primate, "preached one day at Carlisle; I was present, and felt muzzy and half asleep; when on a sudden I was roused, and began to prick up my ears; and what should I hear but a whole page of one of my own books quoted word for word; and this without the least acknowledgment, though it was a white bear; a passage that is often quoted and well known."
I'm going up to Cranch's this evening and to Lenox next week. It is not impossible that some happy gust may blow me to Conway. Give my kindest love to your wife, and believe me muzzy or no muzzy Your aff. HOME, 9th Feb., '54. Ticknor's on Monday morning. One thing thou lackest, O Freunde! You have not heard Miss Skelton sing!
For some time, and in reply to the queries which the student of medicine put to him, the muzzy general refused to say where his lodgings were, and declared that they were hard by, and that he could reach them without difficulty; and he disengaged himself from Huxter's arm, and made a rush, as if to get to his own home unattended: but he reeled and lurched so, that the young surgeon insisted upon accompanying him, and, with many soothing expressions and cheering and consolatory phrases, succeeded in getting the general's dirty old hand under what he called his own fin, and led the old fellow, moaning piteously, across the street.
She had two cups of cocoa and felt fat about the eyes and affectionate. She had mentioned that there were good shows in town. Now she resumed: "Have you been to `The Gold Brick' yet?" "No, I uh I don't go to the theater much." "Gwendolyn Muzzy was telling me that this was the funniest show she'd ever seen. Tells how two confidence men fooled one of those terrible little jay towns.
And in our house he still abides, a much altered man, given to the hearing of sermons, and never so happy as when Patience sits down to read him a piece from the Bible or the Norwich Journal; though sometimes a flash of his old spirit returns when I sit beside him after supper and talk over our old adventures in the East. I found it more difficult at first to befriend old Muzzy.
Francis was not available, and there was sent me a tall, prepossessing-looking young man, who presented himself as "John Assissis de Compostella de Crucis," but was quite content to answer to the name of "John." John seemed a capable man, but was occasionally muzzy. After visiting Simla, the headquarters of the Viceroy, I started for the frontier, where the army was mustering.
