Aubrey, too, felt the reproval of a guilty conscience; remorse took possession of his breast, and he beheld in his imagination the form of his departed sister standing before him, threatening vengeance upon the murderers of her child.
She looked up to see the merry eyes and corn-colored beard of Chauncy Wilson. "I say, Fred," went on the doctor, confidentially, "don't you think this thing is beastly rubbish? It looks like an old grandmother wrapped up in her bedclothes. And what has she got that toy village on her head for?" "Oh, Doctor Wilson!" exclaimed Miss Merrivale, in a manner that might mean reproval or amusement.
She'll take the risk." "I can't," said the child. "You hear her!" said Peg. "Very improper conduct!" said Dick, shaking his head in grave reproval. "Little gal, I'm ashamed of you. Put her in the closet, Peg." "Come along," said Peg, harshly. "I'll show you how I deal with those that don't obey me." So Ida was incarcerated once more in the dark closet.
"MERCI DU COMPLIMENT! I should certainly have no show against Bertha." "Do you think I am uncomplimentary? I'm not really, you know. Every one knows you're a thousand times handsomer and cleverer than Bertha; but then you're not nasty. And for always getting what she wants in the long run, commend me to a nasty woman." Miss Bart stared in affected reproval. "I thought you were so fond of Bertha."
Perhaps she resented her husband's tacit reproval of that masquerade night's freak, and determined to make him swallow more of the same stuff, for she clearly thought that one of William's peculiarities, and one for which she despised him, was that he could never be goaded into an outspoken expression of disapprobation; that from her he would swallow any amount of bitterness without complaining.
Let him at once admit that he is on a lower level than his ideal one; and then see what is to be done there. This seems the best way of treating all that part of worldly trouble which consists of self- reproval. Before a man gives way to excessive grief about the fortunes of his family being lost with his own, he should think whether he really knows wherein lies the welfare of others.
But at the end of the chapter the racial instinct forced reproval from her. "I am sure it is wicked to read such tales." Sarah looked at her in mute astonishment. Grover said "You shouldn't be here at all. Can't Mrs. Latch find nothing for you to do in the scullery?"
Aunt Mary scanned it rather anxiously. "Does that cause you to like it any less, Honora?" she asked. "Aunt Mary!" exclaimed Honora, in a tone of reproval. And added after a little, "I suppose Mademoiselle made it." "Does it make any difference who made it, Honora?" "Oh, no indeed, Aunt Mary. May I wear it to Cousin Eleanor's to-day?" "I gave it to you to wear, Honora."
And as for the labor and difficulty of writing, a mother who is impatient at the slow progress of her children in the attainment of the art would be aided very much in obtaining a just idea of the difficulties which they experience by sitting upon a chair and at a table both much too high for her, and trying to copy Chinese characters by means of a hair-pencil, and with her left hand the work to be closely inspected every day by a stern Chinaman of whom she stands in awe, and all the minutest deviations from the copy pointed out to her attention with an air of dissatisfaction and reproval!
At the spectators' tribune a gentle bravo was heard at these words, and this daring calumny upon the queen found no reproval even from the judges' bench. "Madame," said L'Aigre, after a short pause, "instead of simply answering my questions you reply with a high-sounding speech, which contains an untruth, for it is not true that you can lay any claim to the throne of France.
