"I do not grudge him to you." "Yes; you do. And what business have you to interfere?" "None at all; certainly. I will never do it again." "Don't say that, Lord Silverbridge. You ought to have more mercy on me. You ought to put up with anything from me, knowing how much I suffer." "I will put up with anything," said he. "Do, do. And now I will try to talk to Mr. Erle."
Boncassen, and would certainly have taken her part violently had any one spoken ill of her in his presence. Then suddenly he found that the room was nearly empty. The Beeswaxes and the Gotobeds were gone; and at last the poet himself, with a final glare of admiration at Isabel, had taken his departure. When Silverbridge looked round, Isabel also was gone. Then too Mrs.
All the borough shall know what a coward you are." Then he turned round and addressed the street, but still under the shadow, as it were, of the policeman's helmet. "This man who presumes to offer himself as a candidate to represent Silverbridge in Parliament has insulted my wife. And now, because he fears that I shall horsewhip him, he goes about the street under the care of a policeman."
Silverbridge was also good-looking; but his good looks were such as would give a pang to the hearts of anxious mothers of daughters. Tregear was the handsomest man of the three; but then he looked as though he had no betters and did not care for his elders.
Oh, Lord Silverbridge, say that you don't think I meant it. You cannot think I would willingly wound you. Indeed, indeed, I was not thinking." It had in truth been an accident. She could not speak aloud because they were closely surrounded by others, but she looked up in his face to see whether he were angry with her. "Say that you do not think I meant it." "I do not think you meant it."
Dogs had gone amiss, or guns, and he had been made angry by the champagne which Popplecourt caused to be sent down. He knew what champagne meant. Whisky-and-water, and not much of it, was the liquor which Reginald Dobbes loved in the mountains. "Don't you call this a very ugly country?" Silverbridge asked as soon as he arrived.
"People are not dull to me, if they are real. I pity that poor lady. She is proud of her blood and yet not ashamed of her poverty." "Whatever might come of her blood, she has been all her life willing enough to get rid of her poverty. It isn't above three years since she was trying her best to marry that brewer at Silverbridge. I wish you could give your time a little to some of the other people."
"That unfortunate quarrel is to go on the same as ever, I suppose," said the Duke, addressing himself to the two young men who had seats in the House of Commons. They were both on the Conservative side in politics. The three peers present were all Liberals. "Till next Session, I think, sir," said Silverbridge. "Sir Timothy, though he did lose his temper, has managed it well," said Lord Cantrip.
There was no man among the eight men at the dinner-party not in Parliament, and the only other except Phineas not attached to the Government was Mr. Palliser's great friend, John Grey, the member for Silverbridge. There were four Cabinet Ministers in the room, the Duke, Lord Cantrip, Mr. Gresham, and the owner of the mansion.
The one thing necessary was a fitting wife; and the fitting wife had been absolutely chosen by Silverbridge himself. It may be conceived, therefore, that he was again unhappy. He had already been driven to acknowledge that these children of his, thoughtless, restless, though they seemed to be, still had a will of their own. In all which how like they were to their mother!
