I could not be sure at what he would expect me to exclaim, what I ought to wonder at and remark on to seem natural in my assumed role of Marseilles scapegrace. We were a party of eight, Colgius, his wife Posilla, and two teamsters or drovers named Ramnius and Uttius, who conveyed goods or convoyed cattle between Ostia and the markets of Rome.
The terrible experiences Teddy had had, and the sense of discipline inculcated in him during his short training at sea, made such a change in his character that henceforth he lost his former justly-earned titles, being never more called either "pickle" or "scapegrace."
I certainly have known Lady Scapegrace do most extraordinary things such things as no other woman would be permitted to do without drawing down the abuse of the world. If she had been fair, and rosy, and pleasing, people would have scouted her; but she was dark, and stern, and commanding. The world was afraid of her, and it is very true that "in the world one had better be feared than loved."
How long did you and my boy sit up together isn't he a fine lad, Binnie? I expect you are going to put him down for something handsome in your will." "See what it is to have a real friend now, Colonel! I sate up for ye, or let us say more correctly, I waited for you because I knew you would want to talk about that scapegrace of yours.
Blanche burst out laughing, and kissed his forehead. "Be quiet, you naughty boy; it is a question of paradise, and we must live there together if you wish always to be with me." "Oh, my paradise is here." "Leave off," said she. "You are a little wretch a scapegrace who does not think of that which I love yourself!
Then, in an affair of such delicacy, I could not consult a young man; besides, these boys, I fancy, are always for fighting, right or wrong. A woman was no use, or I should have gone straight back to Lady Scapegrace. I pondered matters over and over again. I thought of every horror in the way of duelling I had ever heard of.
Accordingly all mention of Tony Pollock and his scapegrace cronies was avoided as they once more entered into a warm but perfectly friendly argument. There was one among them, however, who seemed to still look troubled. This was no other than Carl Oskamp.
In other words, if the Doctor had seen fit to throw his scapegrace son a hundred dollar bill, it would have been legal evidence that he remembered him. As he did not, it's a fair legal presumption that he forgot him, or that the will is incomplete." "This seems to be a question for Mrs. Saltonstall's lawyers not for her friends," said Carroll, coldly.
"Foot-rot, eh?" "Well, yes, sir," says James, "they always will, you know, in these wet clays. But I prefer 'em to the Leicesters, for all that." "How is scapegrace Hamlyn?" asked the Vicar. "He is very well, sir. He and I have been out with the harriers to-day." "Ah! taking you out with the harriers instead of minding his business; just like him. He'll be leading you astray, James, my boy.
I imagined him an aristocratic scapegrace, a corsair it was the Byronic period then sailing out to marry a sort of shimmering princess with hair like Veronica's, bright golden, and a face like that of a certain keeper's daughter. Carlos, however, knew nothing about his cousin; he cared little more, as far as I could tell.
