It holds Mrs. Nokes's sketches, I presume. Nokes. Sponge, Mr. Rasper, Mr. Robinson. My husband hees friends are mai friends. If she had been English I should almost think she was afraid of us. Where? Sponge. No, no; don't misunderstand me. I mean she's all high birth.
And Nokes, who had certainly shown no aptitude for the fray, was abused by them all as having caused their retreat by his cowardice; while Sing Sing, the runaway cook, who knew that he had forfeited his wages at Gangoil, was forced to turn over in his heathenish mind the ill effects of joining the losing side.
"What Kate has to say is much more important," replied the discreet sister. "I should like it of all things," said Harry, jumping up. "It's always best to be open about these things. When you first came here, I didn't like you. You took a bit of my river frontage not that it does me any great harm and then I was angry about that scoundrel Nokes."
And they are all eager to hear her sing and play, and to see her beautiful sketches in oil Can you sing, and play, and sketch in oil, Susan? The Montmorenci's, as I wrote to Rasper, were like the driven snow; and Susan's though I didn't like to dwell upon the idea are more like snow on the second day, in London.

I suppose we can swear against him for lighting our grass, sergeant? There isn't one of us that didn't see him do it."

"You told him of it too plain," said the German. "I did tell him of course as I should you. It has come to that now, that if a man robs you your own man you are not to dare to tell him of it!
Lord Rufford had already telegraphed for a first-class surgeon from London, it having been whispered to him that perhaps Old Nokes from Rufford might be mistaken.
Cibber says that Robert Nokes had a palpable simplicity of nature which was often as unaccountably diverting in his common speech as on the stage, John E.
