I couldn't look quieter, not if I was to make up as I do in the evening as a Quakeress. Come along. Oh, Joe, it will be awful dull! Don't forget to send word to the hall that I am ill. Afraid? Not I!" She laughed, but rather hysterically. There would be, however, she secretly considered, some excitement when it came to the finding out, which would happen, she was convinced, in a very few hours.
Most people conjure up a menacing picture when a person is called not only a general, but a militant one. In appearance Alice Paul is anything but menacing. Quiet, almost mouselike, this frail young Quakeress sits in silence and baffles you with her contradictions. Large, soft, gray eyes that strike you with a positive impact make you feel the indescribable force and power behind them.
Roses were rare so early in the year; for him and his companions, they had but wished to compliment those that bloomed in the cheeks of the pretty Quakeress. This servant fellow, breathing fire like a dragon, had taken it upon himself to defend the roses, which likely enough were grown for him, and so had been about to bring upon himself merited chastisement. However, since it was Mr.
He urged me so little and was so much the gentleman that I explained. "Awhile ago," I said, "my father came to me and said, 'I see, Jack, that thee is trying to do three things to farm, hunt foxes, and drink juleps. Does thee think thee can handle all three of these activities in combination? You see, my mother is a Quakeress, and when my father wished to reprove me he uses the plain speech.
The women always seek the monk at a masquerade; they want absolution for the follies they are about to commit. A demure Quakeress touched my sleeve in passing. "Tell me, grave monk, why did you seek the monastery?" "My wife fell in love with me," gloomily. "Then you have a skeleton in the clothes-press?"
"Now I cannot think of you as being anything but a little Quakeress. You see, we get our ideas of persons when we first know them, and then we cannot change." "'And cannot change," she repeated with some amusement. "Clifford Owen, thee didn't like me at all at first." "No, I did not," he responded, and laughed again. "'Twas because I did not know you aright.
Daniel wandered about slowly, enjoying everything he saw with a boy's delight in the unusual, and finally exchanging the skins he had brought with him for things he needed in his hunting, long, sharp-edged knives, flints, powder and lead for his gun. When Daniel was fourteen his older brother married a young Quakeress who had received a better education than any of her neighbors.
So forth I sallied with my fair Quakeress. If the house at Mount Sharon be merely a plain and convenient dwelling, of moderate size and small pretensions, the gardens and offices, though not extensive, might rival an earl's in point of care and expense.
I must have another talk with her . . . a pleasant, unaffected creature, and, for a sailor's wife, more than presentable. One had hardly indeed looked to find such natural good manners in this part of the world. Her mother was a Quakeress, she tells me: yet she laughs a good deal, which I had imagined to be against their principles. She doesn't say 'thee' and 'thou' either."
"Have you no one then who cares for you?" she asked, in a tone of sympathy; "no one in your native land to whom you desire to return?" "Yes," said Wenlock; and he then told her of his engagement to the fair Quakeress. "Ah! I am not surprised at that," observed the Dutch girl, with a sigh.
