In a few moments his better nature condemned this thought. "That's next to murder," he muttered, "fer he couldn't have kept himself from fallin' asleep out there in the cold, and when the tide riz held have been blowed out to sea with this wind. If I hadn't heard him, Captain Cephas never would, fer he wasn't primed up to wake, as I was."
An hour later found Malkarski, pale and breathless, at the door of Portnoff's cabin, unable to recover his speech till Portnoff had primed him with a mug of Sprink's best whiskey. "What is it, my brother?" cried Portnoff, alarmed at his condition. "What is it?" "A plot!" gasped Malkarski, "a most damnable plot! Give me another drink."
Still, there was always the book's circulation to form her judgment by. "I think I 'd better mark it," she said, "don't you? Were you lookin' for Antonia? If you come across Bunyan in the garden, Dick, do say I want to see him; he's gettin' to be a perfect nuisance. I can understand his feelin's, but really he 's carryin' it too far." Primed with his message to the under-gardener, Shelton went.
Lawton's pistol was in my father's hand, cocked and primed and pointed at Mr. Sims. "Brutus," said my father, "unburden Mr. Sims of his weapons. Lawton, a breath of night air may relieve you. Let us go to the window and reflect on the slip that may occur between the container and the nose. My son, give Mr. Lawton your arm. Assist me to open the shutters. Now Mr. Lawton, call to your men.
The hard part came, though, when I has to invite Myra to this little dinner-party I'm supposed to be givin'. Course, it's Auntie's blow, but she's been primed by Vee to insist that I do the honors. First off, I was goin' to run up durin' lunch hour and pass it to Cousin Myra in person; but about eleven o'clock I decides it would be safer to use the 'phone. "Oh!" says she.
Phil was not sure, from the showman's expression, whether he had recognized them or not. Mr. Sparling answered this question almost at once. "How are you, Forrest? Well, Tucker, I suppose you've come back primed to put my whole show to the bad, eh?" "Maybe," answered Teddy carelessly. "Oh, maybe, eh? So that's the way the flag's blowing, is it?
So shouting, she too clutched Pao Erh's wife and began to assail her. Chia Lien had freely primed himself with wine, so, on his return home, he was in such exuberance of spirits that he observed no secresy in his doings. The moment, however, he perceived lady Feng appear on the scene, he got to his wits' end. Yet when he saw P'ing Erh also start a rumpus, the liquor he had had aroused his ire.
Otherwise, he muttered discontentedly, he would have seen his beloved father-in-law 'far enough off, before he would have taken him into his confidence. Primed in this artful manner, Mr Pecksniff presented himself at dinner-time in such a state of suavity, benevolence, cheerfulness, politeness, and cordiality, as even he had perhaps never attained before.
'I am sure, she said to herself, 'I shall not trouble the world very long. A strange languor beset her; scarcely melancholy, for she conceived the cheerfulness of life and added to it in company; but a nervelessness, as though she had been left by the stream on the banks, and saw beauty and pleasure sweep along and away, while the sun that primed them dried her veins.
When the woman kept trying to insert the key in the same wrong position within the ignition and at last primed a bit of gas into the icy cold vehicle with the accelerator instead of pumping on the brake peddle, she still had no confidence in her. Lacking this confidence, they switched to a taxi.
