Han Kew-sul was allowed to leave the room and then was gripped by the Japanese Secretary of the Legation, thrown into a side-room and threatened with death. Even Marquis Ito went out to him to persuade him. "Would you not yield," the Marquis said, "if your Emperor commanded you?" "No," said Han Kew-sul, "not even then!" This was enough. The Marquis at once went to the Emperor.
But you must first go into that little side-room and brush your shoes before the king sees you, for he would surely be enraged to find you in dusty boots."

He beckoned to the two officers and entered his room, the door of which he left open.
'Just like you, with your wisdom! said the Ogre; 'why did you let him go away then, when you knew he was the very man I wanted? 'Well then, I didn't let him go', said the Princess; 'but father's temper is a little hot, so I hid him away in the side-room yonder; but if father hasn't hit upon any one, here he is. 'Well', said the Ogre, 'let him come in then.

The woman gazed silently at her visitors; then, nodding her turbaned head, she drew back into the cottage. "It's what I expected," she muttered. "I warned him more than once.

Every bonze held in his hand a box filled with incense matches, one of which he lighted as soon as its predecessor was extinguished. After a repetition of this ceremony, during which the music was never discontinued, they entered the side-room to take refreshment. Having drunk their tea, they went in procession to a second temple, where the same ceremony was gone through.
Older and wiser people dismissed them from all further consideration. Saturday came making the tenth day since the memorable morning when I had forced Oscar to disclose himself to me in the little side-room at Browndown. In the forenoon we had a visit from him at the rectory.
He was interrupted by the entrance of Johanna, the Christian, who saluted the legate, and then stood confused and embarrassed by the side of Apollinaris's bed. The furtive glance she cast first at the side-room and then at Nemesianus did not pass unobserved by the quick eye of the commander, and with soldierly firmness he insisted on knowing what was concealed behind that door.
Spying Miao Yue show his two cousins into a side-room, Pao-ch'ai take a seat in the court, Tai-yue seat herself on Miao Yue's rush mat, and Miao Yue herself approach a stove, fan the fire and boil some water, with which she brewed another pot of tea, Pao-yue walked in. "Are you bent upon drinking your own private tea?" he smiled.
