Severne," said Fanny, apropos of a church on a hill they were admiring, "did you get your winnings?" "My winnings! You are sarcastical." "Am I? Really I did not intend to be." "No, no; forgive me; but that did seem a little cruel. Miss Dover, I was a heavy loser." "Not while we were there. The lady and gentleman who played with your money won, oh, such a deal!" "The devil they did!" "Yes.
Booth two or three sarcastical words, and a much more sarcastical look, at her departure. A scene in which some ladies will possibly think Amelia's conduct exceptionable. Booth and his wife being left alone, a solemn silence prevailed during a few minutes.
"We charge tuppence more for this bedroom because it's a single doss," he said, not without a touch of pride in his tone. "And well worth the money," remarked Caldew. "Look here, Mr. Funnysides, I didn't bring you up here to listen to no sarcastical remarks," retorted the man, with the sudden fury of a heavy drinker. "If you've seen enough, you'd better clear out. I want to get to bed."
It was well known that Yorick had never a good opinion of the treatise which Phutatorius had wrote de Concubinis retinendis, as a thing which he feared had done hurt in the world and 'twas easily found out, that there was a mystical meaning in Yorick's prank and that his chucking the chesnut hot into Phutatorius's... ..., was a sarcastical fling at his book the doctrines of which, they said, had enflamed many an honest man in the same place.
I felt sarcastical, so I said: "Oh, sapient servant of the law, condescend to tell us, then, what you know." "That ye will all be hanged to-day, at mid-afternoon! Oho! that shot hit home! Lean upon me." The fact is I did need to lean upon somebody. My knights couldn't arrive in time. They would be as much as three hours too late.
It is supposed that Huskisson and Sir Harry Englefield would squabble behind the Speaker's chair about the council of Lateran, and many a turnpike bill miscarry by the sarcastical controversies of Mr. Hawkins Brown and Sir John Throckmorton upon the real presence.
The sixth, which is a fragment, contains a hyperbolical relation of a thirsty foul, called Gullion, who drunk Acheron dry in his passage over it, and grounded Charon's boat, but floated it again, by as liberal a stream of urine. It concludes with the following sarcastical, yet wholesome irony. Drinke on drie foule, and pledge Sir Gullion: Drinke to all healths, but drink not to thyne owne.
He was dressed remarkably plain; seemed to be turned of fifty; had a careless air, and a sarcastical turn in his countenance. Before he entered the sick man's chamber, he asked some questions concerning the disease; and when the apothecary, pointing to his own head, said, "It lies all here," the doctor, turning to Sir Launcelot, replied, "If that be all there's nothing in it."
It seemed incredible, yet it was true; it was proved to be so to me by his pricking his ears and his attentive look at the mention of the word prepossessing him in relation to the money: Government. The squire said something of Government to my aunt Dorothy, with sarcastical emphasis.
Mulholland saw, too, and said to me: "This looks as if there would be a chance for you yet." He laughed. So did I. Soon I saw by my wife's face that she was saying something sarcastical. Then Billy drew himself up very proudly, and waving his hand in a grand way, said loudly, so that we could hear: "It's as true as gospel; and you'll be sorry for this-like anything and anything!"
