When Harisarman heard that, he said to her proudly: "Depart, I know all this; I know the past, present and future; but I will not denounce you, being a miserable creature that has implored my protection. But whatever gold is in your possession you must give back to me."
The fire was on, and a flushed and triumphant Story Girl was taking a loaf of bread from the oven. "Just look," she said proudly. "I have every bit of the bread baked. I got up at three, and it was lovely and light, so I just gave it a right good kneading and popped it into the oven. And it's all done and out of the way.
Anne was wondering if, after all, solitude and tears were not more satisfactory than Josie Pye's companionship when Jane and Ruby appeared, each with an inch of Queen's color ribbon purple and scarlet pinned proudly to her coat.

The scarlet and purple glory of the woods fired his imagination. He found himself whistling and singing at his tasks. He proudly showed a bee tree to his mother, the honey was gathered and safely stored.
"I do not ask you to," said Alexandrine, proudly. "I insinuated nothing. I only replied to your question." "Pardon me, Miss Lee. I am not quite myself this morning. I will go now. I thank you for what you have told me, and trust it will all be explained." "I trust so," answered Miss Lee, turning to leave the room. "Stay a moment! To what depot did Peter drive her?"
