If he came to his speech for five minutes hum we'll see. I'll speak with Mrs. Sturk about it we must help him to his speech a prating fellow; 'tis hard he should hold his tongue; yes, we'll help him to his speech; 'tis in the interest of justice eternal justice ha, ha, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Let Dr.
In two minutes the shade of gloom and regret had passed from her good-humoured features, and she was again the little, busy, prating, important old woman, undisputed owner of one flat of a small tenement in the Abbey Yard, and about to be promoted to be housekeeper to an elderly bachelor gentleman, Chrystal Croftangry, Esq.
I can read these omens myself much better than you can; birds are always flying about in the sunshine somewhere or other, but they seldom mean anything. Ulysses has died in a far country, and it is a pity you are not dead along with him, instead of prating here about omens and adding fuel to the anger of Telemachus which is fierce enough as it is.
The danger thereof was not slight; for though all in the house loved Moll dearly and would willingly do her no hurt, yet the servants, should they notice how Mistress Judith stood with Captain Evans, must needs be prating, and there a mischief would begin, to end only the Lord knows where!
Ay, indeed eight, I might say, for I am an early little body; though I say it that should not say it I AM an early little body. Just. An early little body, as you say, Mrs. Bustle; so I shall have my goose-pie for dinner, hey? Land.

"And this was thy matter of life and death, thou prating madman!" he thundered. "For this string of foolish lies I am kept from my rest, as if I were another old lunatic like thyself! Thou art not fit to be a priest and have the care of souls. To-morrow " But the priest had fled, wringing his hands. As he stumbled down the winding stair he ran straight into the arms of the count.
Thence I to my Lord Brouncker's, at Mrs. Williams's, and there dined, and she did shew me her closet, which I was sorry to see, for fear of her expecting something from me; and here she took notice of my wife's not once coming to see her, which I am glad of; for she shall not a prating, vain, idle woman. Thence with Lord Brouncker to Loriners'-hall,
He's proud of his robber forbears, but there was one of thine drew a good bow with the archers at Crecy. Ralph, thy news has stirred me into vaporing, and the man who built the Orb mill is prating like a child. Ay, I'm grieved to the heart and I'm glad. Fill up thy glass to the brim, lad here's God bless her and thee." There followed a clink of glasses, and some of the wine was spilt.
