Black, who began to see that the strange visitor had nothing of the appearance of one sent to arrest him, said, in a half-humorous, remonstrative tone "Maybe ye're a furriner, an' dinna understan' mainners, but it's as weel to tell ye that I expec' men to tak' aff their bannets when they come into my hoose." Without speaking the visitor removed his cap. Black recognised him in an instant.
The awful solemnity with which Nigel sought to impress this on his companion was absolutely trifling compared with the expression of that companion's countenance, as, with a long-drawn argumentative and remonstrative Oh! he replied: "Massa Nadgel. Does you really t'ink I would say or do any mortal t'ing w'atsumiver as would injure my massa?" "I'm sure, you would not," returned Nigel, quickly.
I know I can't; so I'm not even going to try. Yet in your heart I believe you know how grateful I am to both you and Pollyanna. "Well, it seems to have worked a cure, all right," smiled Dr. Chilton, when his wife had finished reading the letter to him. To his surprise she lifted a quick, remonstrative hand. "Thomas, don't, please!" she begged. "Why, Polly, what's the matter?
"He drove me home. Oh, and I gave the jelly to Mr. Pendleton, and " Miss Polly lifted her head quickly. "Pollyanna, he did not think I sent it?" "Oh, no, Aunt Polly. I told him you didn't." Miss Polly grew a sudden vivid pink. "You TOLD him I didn't!" Pollyanna opened wide her eyes at the remonstrative dismay in her aunt's voice. "Why, Aunt Polly, you SAID to!" Aunt Polly sighed.
To our astonishment, the great creature does nothing but stand still, hold himself up, and roar yes, roar; a long, serious, remonstrative roar. How is this? Bob and I are up to them. He is muzzled!
As there were several openings in the hut, the difficulty of excluding the animals was great, for when expelled at one hole, amid remonstrative shrieks and screams, they quickly re-entered at another with defiant grunts and cacklings. By stopping up the holes, however, the enemy was finally overcome.
The prince did not reply, but led the way towards a neighbouring cliff. "Don't you think we had better make our fire in the woods, Bladud?" asked the captain. "That would oblige one of us to watch in case natives or wolves should attack us, and none of us are in a fit state to watch. We must sleep." "But I can't sleep without first eating," said Maikar in a remonstrative tone.
Drawing back with a shudder, a feeling of mingled horror, rage, and tender pity oppressed him as he thought of Kannoa's poor old bones being shattered on the rocks, or swallowed by the waves at the foot of the cliff, while behind and through Kannoa there rose up the vision of that grandmother in the old country, whose image seemed to have acquired a fixed habit of beckoning him to come home, with a remonstrative shake of the head and a kindly smile.
"Oh, Toc, Toc!" cried Adams, with a remonstrative look, such as martyrs are said to give when their heads are not properly cut off; "is that all you can do with your big strong arms? Fie, man, fie!" This disparaging reference to his strength put poor Thursday on his mettle. "I'll try again, father," he said. "Well, do; an' see you make a better job of it this time."
I will not be breakin' my heart when ye are gone. I suppose that now ye hev got the best the season can supply, ye think the comforts o' the Settlement will be more to your taste." The remonstrative expression on La Certe's face deepened.
