Fullaway, I suppose?" he said, phlegmatically. "Aye, to be sure! Sit you down, Mr. Fullaway. Will you take anything? it's a longish ride from London, and I daresay you'd do with a drink, what?" "Nothing, nothing, thank you, Mr. Allerdyke," answered Fullaway, obviously surprised by the other's coolness. "I had lunch on the train." "Very convenient, that," observed Allerdyke.
"Your Honor, I protest. It is for your Honor to decide truth or falsehood. The witness is on the stand to testify to actual events that have transpired. His personal opinion upon things in general, and upon me, has no bearing on the case whatever." The Justice scratched his head and waxed phlegmatically indignant.

Stolid, undeniable matter was, peering phlegmatically between its wrinkled eyelids. But admitting that now, at last, we have lighted upon the genuine and authentic Doctor Glyphic, why should the sight of him so oddly affect Balder Helwyse, whose avowed object in pulling off the dial-plate had been to justify a suspicion that Uncle Hiero was behind it?
Leopold, the caretaker, made a warning gesture. "Come, Leopold, I must have my jest," laughed Steinbock. "Within certain bounds," returned the old man phlegmatically. "It is high time you were off.

He phlegmatically took his clasp knife from its pouch, hung round his neck by a string, struck his blade into the piece of cold pork upon the table and cut off a large corner, in defiant silence. But his heart was heavy. It was no pleasure to wrangle with so able a wife. He had no wish to quarrel. Only, he knew the value of a livre.
With an effort, Susie said, slowly, and in almost a whisper: "My my father's name was Gerald: will will that do?" "Oh, the very thing!" cried Celia, earnestly. "Gerald. Of course, you will call him after his grandfather. Do decide on that, Mrs. Morton," she added, with a sudden nervousness. "I'll call him Gerald, if you like," Susie said, phlegmatically.
