The sinner was punned into repentance by the former; as in the latter, nothing is more usual than to see a hero weeping and quibbling for a dozen lines together.
The Austrian Consulate-General, with Krai at its head, was easily top-dog in Scutari then. The Slavs punned on his name: "Krai hoche bit' Kralj!" Especially he looked on the mountains as an Austrian preserve, and sent parties of Austrians there. The Turkish Government, acutely suspicious of "tourists," consequently forbade all strangers to travel inland pretending danger.
Snarling's endeavors to produce magazine articles; likewise concerning his attempts to skate, and his efforts to ride on horseback unlike a tailor. Some folk learn with remarkable slowness that Nature never intended them for wits. There have been men who have punned, ever more and more wretchedly, to the end of a long and highly respectable life.
As for his see, it is for crows, kites, owls, and ravens to swim in, such as you be; for by the grace of God I will not swim in that sea while I live, neither will I have any thing to do therewith." Nothing could overcome the playful wit of this indomitable girl. She punned on their words, she laughed at their threats, she held them up to ridicule. This must be ended.
"That deer will make a very effective picture, I think." "It was a dear deer!" punned Alice, and the others laughed. On the way back to Elk Lodge the manager made an announcement that interested all in the company, the young people especially. "I have a drama," he said, "that calls for a coasting race in one scene. I wonder if we couldn't do that to-morrow."
Temple punned on the loss of my watch, and excused himself for a joke neither of us had spirit to laugh at. Just as I was saying, with a last glance at the fire, 'Anyhow, it would have gone in that crowd, the nice good girl ran up behind us, crying, 'There! as she put the watch-chain over my head. 'There, Temple, said I, 'didn't I tell you so? and Temple kindly supposed so.
As I grew older, I saw my power and indulged it; and, being scolded for sarcasm, I was flattered into believing I had wit; so I punned and jested, lampooned and satirized, till I was as much a torment to others as I was tormented myself. The secret of all this was that I was unhappy. Nobody loved me: I felt it to my heart of hearts. I was conscious of injustice, and the sense of it made me bitter.
Brice-Ashton, you will hereafter kindly address me as 'Miss Gantry. You must be aware that I am now out." "Oh, I've no objections, just so we're not out," he punned. She gave him her shoulder, and peered eagerly through the pickets of the iron fence at a train that was backing into the station.
"I like having one Miss close," he punned. The girl blushed, but failed to show any sign of resentment. Blake looked significantly at his wife. "Don't know but what I've changed my mind about a siesta," he remarked. "Here's Tommy gone to sleep just when I wanted to fight him. Do you think Miss Chuckie can keep him and Ashton from running away if I go to bring in the level?"
Am I to infer, Miss Gantry, that you are foolish enough to play fast and loose with me?" "You're so fast, how could I loose you?" she punned. He muttered a French oath. "Naughty! Naughty!" she mocked. "Swearing in French, when you know I don't speak it! Why not say, 'damn it' right out? That would sound better," "See here, Dodie," he warned. "I've stood enough of this.
