So he picked up the final harvest, gleaning his field. "Now," the rotund voice sunk into the confidential, sympathetic register, yet with a tone of saddened rebuke, "there are topics that the lips shrink from when ladies are present.

Bauer will tell it to every one in Barscheit that you overpay for things, and from now on you will have to figure living on a basis of crowns." It is worth any price to hear a pretty woman laugh. What a fine beginning for a day! "May misfortune be kind enough to bring you this way again, Herr!" Bauer cried joyfully, not to say ambiguously.
"If this Spanish cavalier of high lineage and honest intentions is worthy of any gratitude, methinks a few civil words can scarcely overpay him." A heightened colour in the cheek of my betrothed testified to the warmth of his feelings in the matter, as he replied: "You are wholly in the right, my dearest lady! If civil words can cancel aught of our indebtedness I shall not be sparing of them.
"It was a cruel thing. I never will forgive you or Mr. Brown. A few hours would have made no difference, and he was coming the next day." "What then? If he was a teacher, Mr. Brown left his money, with two months' overpay." "His money!" repeated Caroline, with infinite scorn. "If not money, what did he come for?" questioned the hand-maiden, sharply.
Be my friend, plead for me: and oh! how vastly wilt thou overpay the little I have done for thee! Thou comprehendest, Nydia; thou art yet a child have I said more than thou canst understand? 'No. 'And thou wilt serve me? 'Yes. 'Come to me when thou hast gathered the flowers, and I will give thee the vase I speak of; seek me in the chamber of Leda. Pretty one, thou dost not grieve now?
Rockwell will tell you," said Dick, "if you tell him you're very particular to know, and will lose a night's rest if you don't find out." "I wouldn't give you a dollar a week." "Then I'm glad I aint goin' to work for you." "I don't believe your story at all. I don't think Mr. Rockwell would be such a fool as to overpay you so much."
Very rich people they were said to be, though the man had refused to pay the nurse a month's rent in lieu of notice, which would have been only right, as the young lady had agreed to take the rooms until October. Mrs. Foley had observed, too, that he didn't overpay her or Willy for their trouble, and a great deal of trouble they had been put to, certainly.
Her longings were not for herself, but for Lily: if she could provide Lily with the experience of a masquerade in Venice, she could overpay all the kindnesses that the Mayhews had ever done her.
"I'm in no hurry to be an angel," said John, laughing, and, with a bow, "It's better sometimes to be near the rose than to be the rose, and you are proposing to overpay me quite. I shall enjoy doing what I proposed, if it be possible." Their talk then drifted off into various channels as topics suggested themselves until the ship's bell sounded the luncheon hour.
"Aunt Catherine," said Thorold, "I do not precisely think that gold lace is glory. But I mean that I will do my duty. A man can do no more." "Some would have said 'a man can do no less," said Miss Cardigan, turning to me. "But you are right, lad; more than our duty we can none of us do; where all is owing, less will not be overpay.
