Sez I in real dry axents, "If I conclude to buy a dress I shall have to have as much as a dozen rins; I don't believe that I could git a handsome and durable one for less." My tone was sarcastical. The idee of buyin' a silk dress for half a cent! But I didn't lay out to buy; I wuz jest lookin' round.
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.
"Several, in their books, have many sarcastical and spiteful strokes at religion in general; while others make themselves pleasant with the principles of the Christian.
Indeed, if I was certain" Here he stopt, and Sophia throwing in more entreaties, at length prevailed upon him; so that after venting two or three bitter sarcastical expressions against his daughter, he departed as fast as he could to recover his sister, before her equipage could be gotten ready.
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.
He had a keen sense of humour, and was rather sarcastical; but, for all that, he was sensitively earnest, and conscientious. I had the warmest affection and respect for him.

"And not a mite of anything on their heads," says Miss Spink. Sez I in sarcastical axents, "Do men have to go in low necks too?" "No," says Miss Bobbet. "But they have to have the tails of their coats kinder pinted.
Good God! what a fate is that of the Right Honourable Gentleman, and in what a state of whimsical contradiction does he now stand!" This was the sarcastical language of Mr. Fox, in 1797, when speaking of the apostacy of Mr. Pitt; but which might have been very fairly retorted upon himself in 1806.
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!"
When company came to Castlewood, he entertained them handsomely, and was of a very pleasant, sarcastical turn. He was not in the least sorry when they went away. "My love, I shall not be sorry to go myself," he said to his daughter, "and you, though the most affectionate of daughters, will console yourself after a while. Why should I, who am so old, be romantic?
