His "Album Graecum" is best left untranslated, and his "Zebethum Occidentale" is still more transcendentally unmentionable except in a strange dialect. It sounds odiously to us to hear him recommend for dysentery a powder made from "the sole of an old shoe worn by some man that walks much."
No! ah, no! for then you would be incomplete, odiously selfish, a dry egotist, with a fine taste nothing more and at your age, it would be hideous, my dear young lady, it would be hideous!" "And do you really think thus severely of me?" said Adrienne, with uneasiness, so much influence had this man irresistibly attained over her.
In another case Edwin would have agreed with her, for the tendency of both was to minimise an ill and to exaggerate the philosophical attitude in the first moments of any occurrence that looked serious. But now he honestly thought that her judgement was being influenced by her prejudice, and he felt savage against her. The worst was that it was all his fault. Maggie was odiously right.
"And that is your only reason?" "Isn't it more than reason enough? There must be other people who want him and things of his own he wants to do. It would be odiously selfish of me to interfere by keeping him tied here. I have wondered lately whether I oughtn't to speak to him about it and urge his going home.
For it proved so excessively exhilarating to deal thus with Angelo Luigi Francesco! She had old scores to settle. And had she not this very day received an odiously disquieting letter from him, in which he not only made renewed complaint of her poor, little miseries of debts and flirtations, but once more threatened retaliation by a cutting-off of supplies?

You have only to enjoy." "Oh, I suppose I am very well off," said Newman.
The most wonderful thing to whoever knew the King so gallant to the ladies during a long part of his life, so devout the other, and often importunate to make others do as he did was that the said King had always a singular horror of the inhabitants of the Cities of the Plain; and yet M. de Vendome, though most odiously stained with that vice so publicly that he treated it as an ordinary gallantry never found his favour diminished on that account.

And, oh, don't spoil the pleasure of your coming home to me; show me that you can be my father and yet not neglect your destiny. I am not like some daughters; I will not be jealous of your art, and I will try to understand it. The situation was odiously farcical.
McNiven went after Beattie at once and proposed a quiet treaty and a settlement out of court. Beattie grinned so odiously that McNiven had to say: "Oh, I remember you. You used to be an ambulance-chaser. What are you after now a little dirty advertising?" "What are you after?" said Beattie. "A little collusive juggling with the Seventh Commandment?"
