Such was the force of the inspiration of Bootlbac the drum-beater, caused by the burning of the Identical. Now, the four Kings, when they had mastered their wits, gazed in silence on Shagpat, and sighed and shook their heads, and were as they that have swallowed a potent draught and ponder sagely over the gulp.
"You were just a flapper," said Leonard; "you couldn't be in love." "A woman is never too young to adore some man," said Marjorie, sagely. "I was a miserable homesick wretch, spending the winter in a German boarding-school." "A German school! What for?" Marjorie, her small face drawn with fatigue, but her eyes vivid with excitement, regarded him pertly. "In order to learn German and culture."
The story was quickly told, to Elizabeth's mingled amusement and horror; and Peace ended by sagely remarking, "So I'm going to ask Allee if she's willing that we should use some of our Fourth of July money to buy them a treat of sugar and butter for a whole day or a week, if it doesn't take too much, and grandpa don't sit down on the plan.
Innocent Bridgie had no idea as to what might be expected under the circumstances, but Miss Munns, who knew everything, declared that the offer was a handsome one, and ten pounds in excess of the ordinary rate of payment. Still, as she sagely remarked, one could never tell!
"No, I didn't think of that either," Beth rejoined. "But I will." "Will she let you?" "I don't know" rather doubtfully. "I expect she will if you wait until she's in a good humour," the child of the people sagely suggested. "All right. You come at any rate," Beth answered boldly. Mrs. Caldwell consented.
If you can't see any resemblance between Arthur and the pictures of Horace Endicott, what can Sonia see?" "The eyes of hate, and the eyes of love," said he sagely. "Then I'd be afraid to bring them together," she admitted whispering again, and cowering into his arms. "If he suspects I am hunting him down, he will have no pity." "No doubt of it," he said thoughtfully.
We all rose to the fly of one R.F.C., and we were all landed in the back woods. There are more trout in that stream, and, if we stand for it, the fishing is still good, but I've got the sting of the fly still in my gills. Also I'm thinking about one Henry Marsham." Stoughton nodded sagely. "That's right, but if you liked fishing, Birch, you wouldn't drag in shareholders in that churlish fashion.
In its way it's quite as beautiful as that golden forest we rode through." "It wouldn't be so beautiful if you had to wallow through ten miles of it," she sagely responded. "Daddy will be wet to the skin, for I found he didn't take his slicker. However, the sun may be out before night. That's the way the thing goes in the hills."
"Which, as you so sagely point out, would, however be a poor reason for letting their families punish them in case they did wrong. Just think how such a privilege might be abused! If Uncle John didn't behave himself as his nephews thought proper they could simply set upon him and briskly beat him up."
Are you residing permanently in London?" "Yes," said Doggie. "And Durdlebury?" "I'm not going back." "London's a place full of temptations for those without experience," Phineas observed sagely. "I've not noticed any," Doggie replied. On which Phineas laughed and slapped him on the knee. "Man," said he, "when I first saw you I thought you had changed into a disillusioned misanthropist.
