"But your surname?" "Oh, mine? Why, mine's Brown." "Brown!" re-echoed Charlie, with a tinge of disappointment in his tone. "Don't you like it?" asked Miss Agatha Brown with a smile. "Oh, it will do for the present," laughed Charlie. "Well, I don't mean to keep it all my life. I've spent to-day, Mr. Merceron, in spying out your house. Nettie Wallace and I ventured quite near. It's very pretty."
Dick lit a fresh, cigarette, and blew a great cloud of smoke before his eyes, lest the observant Arab should read the thoughts that made them glisten. "Let us suppose," he said slowly, "that Fenshawe Effendi decided to make for the sea by that shorter road, there would be no difficulty in doing it?" "Difficulty !" re-echoed the sheikh, "it might cost us many lives.
The King in his reply declared himself delighted, and re-echoed the affectionate protestations of his niece. "My dearest and most beloved Victoria," he said, "you have written me a VERY DEAR and long letter, which has given me GREAT PLEASURE AND SATISFACTION." He would not admit that he had had a rebuff. A few months later the crisis came.
By the towing-path colliers are waiting to be drawn up stream, black as their freight, by the horses that are nibbling the hawthorn hedge; while by the wharf, labourers are wheeling barrows over bending planks from the barges to the carts upon the shore. A tug comes under the bridge, panting, every puff re-echoed from the arches, dragging by sheer force deeply laden flats behind it.
Edmund Wynne was rudely awakened from the train of thought into which he had fallen by the rough hand of the ostler, which alighted upon his shoulders with a smack which was re-echoed in the farthest corner of the yard. "Now, James," said his companion, whose ready familiarity was becoming exceedingly distasteful, "they are about to begin, see!"
In the pulpit stood Monseigneur Martha, finishing his third address on the New Spirit. The two former ones had re-echoed far and wide, and so what is called "all Paris" was there women of society, politicians, and writers, who were captivated by the speaker's artistic oratory, his warm, skilful language, and his broad, easy gestures, worthy of a great actor.
But when the musicians began to play a brilliant air, the palace re-echoed from tower to dungeon with joyous shouts of "Long live the Prince of Erin and his future bride, Yellow Lily of Loch Lein!" Once upon a time, a Mouse, a Bird, and a Sausage, entered into partnership and set up house together.
And craftily drawn forth and re-echoed by another, and at times repeated over to her with many additions, these imaginings must at length have assumed in her mind a hue of reality, heightened into conviction by the dreamy seclusion of her life. But now, let her subsequent and more credible history be related, as from time to time she rehearsed it.
I have disgraced the Clarenden name. You'll never see me again. Good-bye, old boy. Deserter! The yells of all the tribes in the battle on the Prairie Dog Creek shrieked not so fiercely in my ears as that word rang now. And all the valley of the Smoky Hill echoed and re-echoed it. Deserter!
Firmin! Firmin! Jean!" No answer came out of the darkness, though his bellow echoed and re-echoed among the out-buildings and stables away on the left. He turned and looked at the Duke and said uneasily, "What on earth can they be doing?" "I can't conceive," said the Duke. "I suppose we must go and hunt them out."
