Some of the new sciences puzzle me, I am surprised to find how closely they approach to the fulfilment of old prophecies. One is almost inclined to believe that there must be a next world and a future life." "I think such belief is now placed beyond mere inclination," said the Cardinal "There is surely no doubt of it." Vergniaud gave him a quick side-glance of earnest scrutiny.
But he would not have liked to say it to his mother, for he saw now that she did all she could for him. And he found an affectionate word to say to her more frequently than he had ever done before in his life. So at last, at last I Käte often gave him a covert side-glance: was this the same boy who had resisted her so defiantly as a child, had refused her love, all her great love?
"What may this all be about?" wondered the younger brother. The elder brother shrugged his shoulders, sighed, and rubbed his eyes; and all four kept silent. "Is it perhaps from the uuityam?" asked Hayoue; and his mother exclaimed, "Surely it is." "Then something must have occurred," continued Hayoue; and with a side-glance at his brother, "I wonder if Tyope is fasting also?"
Tante had not told her what the present was, but had written that Karen would care for it very much. "To find her present waiting for us is like having Tante to welcome us," Karen said. After her surmise about the present she relapsed into happy musings and Gregory, too, was silent, able only to give a side-glance of gratitude, as it were, at the thought that Tante was to welcome them by proxy.
For some minutes Dagobert had only sought to gain time, and had cast many a side-glance at a half-open door on the landing-place, just opposite to the chamber occupied by the orphans: finding the moment favorable, he now rushed quick as lightning on the burgomaster, seized him by the throat, and dashed him with such violence against the door in question, that the magistrate, stupefied by this sudden attack, and unable to speak a word or utter a cry, rolled over to the further end of the room, which was completely dark.
"I suppose, Mr. Mainwaring," said one of his listeners, giving a quick side-glance at his companions, "I suppose that during this interim a truce will be declared, and for the time being there will be a cessation of hostilities between the parties in interest, will there not?" "Sir!" roared Ralph Mainwaring, transfixing the speaker with a stare calculated to annihilate him.
"I'm not joking, Smith," said the other, quietly. Mr. Smith pondered and, stealing a side-glance at him, stood scraping his foot along the floor. "There ain't nothing much to tell," he grumbled, "and, mind, the worst favour you could do to the cap'n would be to put it about how he was done. He's gone for a little trip instead of 'is son, that's all."
Pity now you chucked our surprise visit to the Hickses, and sent Streff up to drag us back just as we were breaking in! You remember?" He flung off the "Streff" airily, in the old way, but with a tentative side-glance at his host; and Lord Altringham, leaning toward Susy, said coldly: "Was Breckenridge speaking about me? I didn't catch what he said.
"Haven't you the sole possession of my society, the right to bore me or make me happy, perhaps presently the right to feed me?" "For a few minutes," he answered. "Don't be so sure. It may be an hour." "I want it," he said, "for longer." Something in his tone suddenly broke through the easy lightness of their conversation. She stole a swift side-glance at him, and understood.
There the men stood, motionless as statues, staring stolidly before them, without so much as a stolen side-glance at the beauty and elegance passing before their eyes. This procession of ladies glittering with jewels, the officers and diplomats in their splendid uniforms covered with decorations and gay- colored cordons, made a sight never to be forgotten; at least, I shall never forget it.
