Do you think that Galgenstein, who is so tender now because he HASN'T won you, will be faithful because he HAS? Psha, woman, men are not made so!

"I don't want any young lady," said he. "There's Charlie Fairstairs, who would make as good a wife as any girl I know." "Psha! Charlie Fairstairs, indeed!" The very idea of having such a bride palmed off upon him did something to restore him to his manly courage. "Or my niece, Kate Vavasor, who has a nice little fortune of her own, and who is as accomplished as she is good-looking."
I remember too well your kindness to my brother; your kindness to us all." "Psha! you know I do not speak of that. Are you bound to obey your mother by forgetting that you have loved me?" She paused a moment before she answered him, looking now full before her, hardly yet bold enough to look him in the face. "No," she said; "I have not forgotten that I loved you. I shall never forget it.
He spoke a good deal of his old friendship and respect." "He should have thought of that before. How am I to see people now?" "But when you are better, aunt ?" "How do I know that I shall ever be better? He isn't off with those people at Heavitree, is he?" "I hope not, aunt." "Psha! A poor, weak, insufficient creature; that's what he is.

Macshane, the fact is, was a Catholic, but did not care to own it: for in those days his religion was not popular. "Baids? Holy Mother of saints! give me back them baids," said Mr. Macshane, clasping his hands. "They were blest, I tell you, by his holiness the po psha!
He had promised to protect George with his life. Why was her son gone and the Colonel alive? How dared he to face her after that promise, and appear before a mother without her son? She trusted she knew her duty. She bore illwill to no one: but as an Esmond, she had a sense of honour, and Mr. Washington had forfeited hers in letting her son out of his sight. Psha! a promise was a promise.
Pull your nightcap over your eyes, the blankets over your nose, and sleep away Yesterday. Psha, man, it was but a dream! Oh no, no! The sleep won't come. The watchman bawls some hour what hour? Harry minds him that he has got the repeating watch under his pillow which he had bought for Hester.

"No! no! no! Only say you you know nothing of it!" "Psha! girl! Go to your school:" and the old woman tried to rise.
My heart smote me the moment he shut the door Psha! said I, with an air of carelessness, three several times but it would not do: every ungracious syllable I had utter'd crowded back into my imagination: I reflected, I had no right over the poor Franciscan, but to deny him; and that the punishment of that was enough to the disappointed, without the addition of unkind language.
Jest look around. Look at yonder Devil's Hill. Wher'd you ever see the like? That's it. Devil's Hill. Say, it's a devil's region, an' everything to it belongs to the devil. Ther' ain't nuthin' fer us nuthin', but to die of starvin'. Ah, psha'! It's a lousy world. Gawd, when I think o' the wimminfolk it makes my liver heave.
