Jeanne Richaud was still weeping hysterically and expostulating with the cab-driver, who paid no attention whatsoever to her pleadings, but remained obstinately on his knees out of harm's way, begging the "Santissima Madonna" and all his "patron saints" to see him safely with his fiacre back to the city. That was all he cared for.
"So did every man in the fleet, Mr Simple, I can tell you." "But what became of the Santissima Trinidad?" "Upon my word, she behaved one deck better than all the others. She held out against four of our ships for a long while, and then hauled down her colours, and no disgrace to her, considering what a precious hammering she had taken first.
Santissima! I know not what he was, if he was not the devil! "I saw him rush by me so close that I might have touched him with my rifle," here broke in Thure; "but, before I could speak or shoot, he had disappeared in the darkness, and then came Pedro's shot and yells." "Look to the horses!" cried Mr. Conroyal. "See that everything is safe!"
In spite of his youth, a critical, discerning stranger would have pronounced him a man of much experience who feared nothing made of flesh and blood. Murillo snarled at the Kansan in Spanish: "Santissima! Caramba! Caraj " Like a flash Badger snapped the revolver out through the open window, and his hand closed on the throat of the furious Mexican, cutting the vile word short.
"For all the world knoweth that once, when it had been lost and the good pater would prove if he had really found it, he held it in the heart of the fire until it glowed like the very flame itself. But when he drew it forth, it was burned not at all Santissima Vergine! but wood as before being too holy to burn. A miracle! And then "
"It isn't he! It isn't Antonio!" bleated a pale and disappointed voice, with a peculiarly irritating timbre. It was the voice of the old woman, who now darted over Maddalena Bernari's shoulder a hostile glance at Hermione. "Madonna Santissima!" baaed the woman with the blue-black hair. "Perhaps he will not be let out to-day!" The old woman began to cry feebly, yet angrily.
We had not eaten a dozen mouthfuls when we say a man running down the hill with a branch in each hand. As soon as he appeared, a number of the Mexicans left their occupations and hurried to meet him. "Siete horas!" shouted the man. "Seven hours, and no more!" "No more than seven hours!" echoed the Tzapotecans, in tones of the wildest terror and alarm. "La Santissima nos guarde!
Did you take much cognizance of them?" "Amongst the laity, not much; we, however, kept a vigilant eye upon our own body, but, upon the whole, were rather tolerant in these matters, knowing that the infirmities of human nature are very great indeed: we rarely punished, save in cases where the glory of the church and loyalty to Maria Santissima made punishment absolutely imperative."
I do not like the servant, and still less the master. He has neither formality nor politeness: he tells me that he is not French, and when I spoke to him of the Irish Christians, he did not seem to belong to them. I more than suspect that he is a heretic or a Jew at least. Wife. Perhaps they are both. Maria Santissima! what shall we do to purify the house when they are gone? Innkeeper.
The Senate owes me just compensation for that loss, worthy Signor Roderigo!" "Which thou would'st be glad to repair to-night?" "Santissima Maria! You may be the Doge himself, Signore, for anything I know of your countenance; but I could swear at the altar you ought to be of the Senate for your sagacity!
