She would have me come, although I dislike travelling. But I am fond of Olga." "It is more than my father is," said Olga, with a shrug; "he would not come. I suppose he thinks that I have disgraced him." "My dear child," reproved her mother, "you know what your father's opinion is about this wild life you lead." "A very hard-working life," retorted her daughter; "singing is not easy.
Aunt Trudy came home before she had finished and when she saw the unmade beds and the morning's disorder still untouched, she spoke her mind in no uncertain terms. "Everybody has a grouch," observed Sarah cheerfully when they sat down to dinner. Doctor Hugh had not come in. "Don't use that word, Sarah," reproved her aunt, sugaring a bowl of boiled rice for Shirley.
Paybody, therefore, is greatly mistaken when he thinks that meats sacrificed to idols, being the good creatures of God, were allowed by the Lord, out of the case of scandal, notwithstanding of idolatrous pollution; for the eating of things sacrificed to idols is reproved as idolatry, Rev. ii.; and the eating of such things is condemned as a fellowship with devils, 1 Cor. x. 20.

They traveled until dusk, and they were about to leave the trail and hide in the woods when suddenly Fred's steed neighed. "What's the matter with you?" the boy reproved his horse. "You will never get any oats if you make such a noise like that."
