"But you do like me a little, haven't you said so?" Her frown deepened. "Yes, I do like you a little." "Then I'll keep on hoping, anyhow." Her smile came back, but this time it had grown mocking. "No, you mustn't hope," she answered, "at least," she corrected provokingly, "you mustn't hope too hard."
When the nightingale warbles passionately and the mocking bird gurgles provokingly, when the robin fills its scarlet breast and the starling floats in ecstasy through the perfumed air, when the pigeon coyly woos its mate, and the butterfly flirts with the dazzling multicolors of its wings, when all the marvelous devices of sex attraction in nature, selection and courting, mating and reproducing are pondered, who but must wonder at the infinite possibilities of reaction of the sex hormones?
Everard Arlington," she said saucily, with a low curtsey and a most provokingly wise expression. "Emily!" "Don't be a goose, Evie." "Where have you been this long, long time, Isabel?" asked Elliott, "I have missed you so much." "Have you, Charley? I'm glad to hear that some one has missed me. The happy past seems almost like a dream, it seems so far away."
"Thank you, this suits me very well," said the man, smiling provokingly. "It doesn't suit me, though," said Nicholas, bristling up. "Who are you?" inquired Dick, for it was he, with provoking nonchalance. "Who am I? I'll let you know!" retorted Nicholas, now very angry. "I wish you would. That's what I just asked you."

Another shake of the small black head, and an expressive shrug. "You live in Cellino, so why not say so? Come, no more sulking. If you won't answer me of your own free will, you must be made to answer." "No, Señor," Lucia smiled provokingly. "No what in thunder do you mean?" "No, Señor," there was not a trace of impertinence in her face. The officer looked at her in despair.

"I don't care," said Marjory, knowing in her heart that she did care beyond everything, and that her greatest desire was to learn all sorts of things. "I don't care a pin," she repeated. "Yes, you do, or you wouldn't get so red," said Mary Ann provokingly. Then she continued, "Your uncle's queer, isn't he?" "What do you mean by 'queer'?" "Well queer in his head, you know.
