"Well, I'll think about it, dear." Then to Ross; "Does she kiss you, Norval?" "Well, I can't say she does," said that gentleman, who had been a surprised listener to their talk, and it annoyed him to have to confess she did not. "Nor let you kiss her, either?" "Well, yes," with a laugh. "She can't very well help that, you know."

Norval set out with the presents of Mdlle. de Cardoville. The doctor who accompanies M. Norval, and who was chosen by M. Baleinier, will inspire no suspicion?" "None," answered Rodin.

At length: "There is a pig in the grass," she said. "Its name is Norval." "The doll is on its hind legs," I replied, getting up. "As for me, is it not that I shall have been about to go?

The coat-of-arms of the Squeerses is tore, and their sun is gone down into the ocean wave!
"I admit they don't fit as well as your stockings, but " "Norval." "Madam?" "Behave yourself." "Very good, madam. By the way, what about my wages?" "What do you suggest? I shan't object to anything reasonable." "No? Well, I was getting eleven-three a yar day in my last place, and all found especially all." "'All found''s rather a dangerous phrase." "Not at all.
