You hain't hardly said aye, yes, ner no sence you set down. Anythin' gone 'skew?" David lifted his saucer, gave the contents a precautionary blow, and emptied it with sundry windy suspirations. "No," he said, "nothin' hain't gone exac'ly wrong, 's ye might say not yet; but I done that thing I was tellin' ye of to-day." "Done what thing?" she asked perplexedly.
The camera should usually be fixed to look downward vertically, and then variation up to 40 degrees can be got by the legs. Hold the camera in the right position, keeping the legs off the ground, and then drop the legs to find their own place; thus very skew positions can be fixed quickly. Small objects are best laid on black velvet, and taken vertically.
Therefore I girded my own body with a dozen turns of hay-rope, twisting both the ends in under at the bottom of my breast, and winding the hay on the skew a little, that the hempen thong might not slip between, and so cut me in the drawing.
After many ablutions and a careful toilet, I thought I could skew my face, and I presented myself coolly in the drawing-room. The two sisters were there with the other members of our society, and I was delighted with their rosy cheeks.
"I must see about his clothes," she said to Imogen; "I can't have him going up to Oxford all anyhow. Those boys are so particular." "Val's got heaps of things," Imogen answered. "I know; but they want overhauling. I hope he'll come." "He'll come like a shot, Mother. But he'll probably skew his Exam." "I can't help that," said Winifred. "I want him."
"There it is. Look at the back of this sofa against the wall. All those flowers in relief have a hole in the centre which communicates with the closet behind that wall. There is a bed, a table, and everything necessary to a person who wants to spend the night in amusing himself by looking at what is going on in this room. I will skew it to you whenever you like."
She then went away, and I shall not say whether my behaviour irritated or pleased her. The next day I was curious to know how much she had told the marchioness, and on hearing nothing of the principal fact I felt certain she would not lock her door that evening. When the evening came I defied her to skew the same confidence in me as I had shewn in her.
The faint suspicions of spinal curvatures, skew feet, unequal legs, and ill-grown bones, that haunt one in a London crowd, the plain intimations in yellow faces, puffy faces, spotted and irregular complexions, in nervous movements and coughs and colds of bad habits and an incompetent or disregarded medical profession, do not appear here.

I pressed her hand tenderly, to skew that I assented to the conditions she laid down. "Oh! by the way," she suddenly exclaimed, "I have a pleasant surprise for you." She went out, and a moment afterward returned with Veronique, who had become her maid. I was glad to see her and embraced her affectionately, asking after Annette. She said her sister was well, and was working with her mother.
