"You have just told me." M. Rossignol felt a kind of reproval in the Cure's tone. It made him a little nervous. "I'm an old fool, but she needed some one," he protested. "At least I am a gentleman, and she would not be thrown away." "Dear Maurice!" said the Cure, and linked his arm in the other's. "In all respects save one, it would have been to her advantage.
Suzanna found the chair at one end of the garden. Quickly she brought it and sank herself upon it gracefully as became a princess of the blood, but she was surprised a moment later to meet reproval in the eyes of the queen. "It's not permissible to seat yourself in the presence of royalty," said the queen, rather sternly. "But, I, too, am royalty and you told me to get the chair," said Suzanna.
And with a lean finger uplifted in menacing reproval, Mrs. Whitehead sailed on her way, nor deigned me another word. I stole out into the playground, wondering, wretched, and yet smitten through with faint delicious thrillings of a new-found happiness such as I had often dreamed of, but had scarcely dared hope ever to realise. I, Janet Hope, going home! It was almost too incredible for belief.
The expected arrival of Captain Brown's wife made her generous offer unnecessary. The prisoner wrote her, thanking her, and asking her to help his family, a request with which she faithfully complied. With his letter came one from Governor Wise, in courteous reproval of her sympathy for John Brown. To this she responded in an able and effective manner.
Evelyn wanted to understand what that meant, but Angela could not tell her, she could only repeat what Rufina had told her; and a look of reproval came into Veronica's face when Angela said that when Rufina was asked what her counterpart was like she said that it was like having something inside one, and that lately he seemed to be much in search of her mouth and tongue; and when she asked him what he was like he replied that he was all a kiss."
Duveen, returned from her visit, was lighting a large brass table lamp, Flamby dropped cross-legged upon the floor and tenderly removed her left shoe. Having got it free of her foot, she hurled it violently into the kitchen. "Hell!" she said, succinctly. "Flamby!" cried her mother, in a tone of mild reproval. "How can you swear like that!" Flamby began to remove her stocking.
There was driftwood, though not much, on the beach, and the sight of a coffee tin I had taken from the Ghost's larder had given me the idea of a fire. "Blithering idiot!" I was continuing. But Maud said, "Tut, tut," in gentle reproval, and then asked why I was a blithering idiot. "No matches," I groaned. "Not a match did I bring. And now we shall have no hot coffee, soup, tea, or anything!"
Before the fireplace sat the girl of the station, her hair gleaming with a new splendor in that light. She looked in mock reproval at Mr. Magee. "For shame," she said, "to be late at the trysting-place." "A thousand pardons," Mr. Magee replied. "I fell asleep and dreamed of a girl who wept in a railway station and she was so altogether charming I could not tear myself away."
"I couldn't help laughing," Pepsy said remorsefully, "'specially when you fell down. You said you were going to handle them." "That could happen to the smartest man," Pee-wee said in scornful reproval; "that could happen to to to Julius Caesar." "He's dead, you ask Miss Bellison," said Pepsy timidly. "That shows how much you know," said Pee-wee scornfully as he brushed off his clothing.
Jarvis nodded, as Nick paused. "He was somewhat intoxicated, and his language was very abusive. You replied in violent reproval, and he started forward, as if about to attack you." Again the doctor made a sign of assent. "You seized a spade " "It was in my hand," the doctor interrupted, feebly. "That is right; correct me whenever I am in error. You raised the spade and struck Deever upon the head.
