She should leave this to others, and modestly accept those already in use by us." "One remarks the puffed-up parvenue," whispered Frau von Morien. "Every thing smells of the varnish upon the newly-painted coat-of-arms." "Hush, my friend! I there comes the baroness leaning upon the arm of the French ambassador. She is indeed imposing in appearance, and one could mistake her for a queen."
Seating myself by Gubin on some trampled straw in the hut ordinarily used by the watchman of the Birkins' extensive orchard, I found that, owing to the orchard being set on a hillside, I could see over the tops of the apple and pear and fig trees, where their tops hung bespangled with dew as with quicksilver, and view the whole town and its multicoloured churches, yellow, newly-painted prison, and yellow-painted bank.
Thus, the dark and worn stone walls have bright eyes in their newly-painted doors and windows. Over their door-steps the fishermen's wives are quite fastidious, and you seldom see a mark on the ochre-coloured hearth-stone with which the women love to brighten the worn stones. Even the scrapers are sleek with blacklead, and it is not easy to find a window without spotless curtains.
The building he had indicated was a tall circular structure, painted a dark red, with a small cupola effect crowning its top. "That is a silo. You wouldn't be able to get permission to post a bill on there, even if you could get up there to do it," said Conley. "Why not?" "Why not? Why that farmer, I'll wager, sets as much store by that building as he does his newly-painted house."
To the railings was affixed a newly-painted notice: "No person will be allowed to enter these premises without a pass. To this rule there is no exception." Lechford House had been "taken over" in its entirety by a Government department that believed in the virtue of mystery and of long hours. He looked up at the higher windows. He could not distinguish the chimney amid the newly-revealed stars.
And my astonishment was profound to find that the Last Chance sign hung over a very prosperous grocery with boxes and barrels of provender out on the pavement under an awning and with huge, newly-painted screen doors guarding the wide entrance, at which I hesitated.
Virtud's newly-painted little house, with its tiny garden in front in all the splendor of its spring dress. "Come in, Paula," said our teacher of former days. "Your present is in here in this front room." We all followed after Paula, eager to see the result of her inspection of the "present." Paula took one step, and then stopped on the threshold.
"All in," was announced at last, and as the carriage rolled away its occupants looked at one another with faces of blithe satisfaction that their pilgrimage was so auspiciously begun. A mile or more up the river the large, newly-painted boat awaited them.
Folgat and Goudar saw it, rising in the centre of an immense garden, simple and pretty, with a double porch, a slate roof, and newly-painted blinds. "Great God!" exclaimed the detective, "what a place for a gardener!" And M. Folgat felt so keenly the man's ill-concealed desire, that he at once said, "If we save M. de Boiscoran, I am sure he will not keep this house."
The great measures of Sir Robert Peel, which produced three good harvests, have entirely revived trade at Mowbray. The Temple is again open. newly-painted, and re-burnished, and Chaffing Jack has of course "rallied" while good Mrs Carey still gossips with her neighbours round her well-stored stall, and tells wonderful stories of the great stick-out and riots of '42.
