"Oh, of course! He's your clerk!" retorted Robson, a little sneeringly. "Naturally, you've a big idea of his abilities. But " "He's not our clerk any longer," said Eldrick. "He left us about a week ago. I heard this morning that he's set up an office in Market Street in the Atlas Building and I wondered for what purpose." "Purpose of fleecing Mrs. Mallathorpe, I should say!" grumbled Robson.
"Yes," continued Kathleen sneeringly, "I have heard of the jumble you made of your freshman year. It took a number of influential friends to pull you into favor again, I believe." "Not half such a jumble as you are making of yours," smiled Elfreda. Then she went on gravely: "I am glad you mentioned that freshman year. I did behave like an imbecile.
If I should accept Limburg, what security could I have that I should be permitted to retain it?" The ambassador replied, "England, Russia and Saxony, will give their guaranty." "Guaranties," rejoined the king, sneeringly. "Who, in these times, pays any regard to pledges? Have not both England and France pledged themselves to support the Pragmatic Sanction? Why do they not keep their promises?
"I wish you wouldn't take things so SERIOUSLY, Mark," she began uneasily. "You're always forcing me to say things and I don't want to I don't want to get married AT ALL " "Nonsense!" said Mark harshly. "It's not nonsense!" Julia protested, glad to feel her anger rising. Mark saw her heightened colour, and misread it. "Yes," he said sneeringly.
What a grand thing it would be to be free from that! You believe in death, don't you? and I suppose, like every other sensible person, you are afraid of death, unless you have found something that makes you free from its power." Rich. was still in a scornful mood. "Should like to see anybody that is free from that!" he said, sneeringly.
Starrett had sneeringly suggested that, to remedy his fallen fortunes he might marry Diane! Carl laughed softly but recalling suddenly how Diane had looked as she stood in the doorway, the flame of her honest anger setting off her primitive grace, he frowned thoughtfully at the fire, swayed by one of the mad, reckless whims which frequently rocketed through his brain to heedless consummation.
"Perhaps you are equally bent," he says, sneeringly, "upon marrying Gower?" I suppose he has expected an indignant denial to this question, because, when silence follows it, he starts, and placing both his hands upon her shoulders, draws her deliberately over to a side window, and stares into her downcast face. "Speak," he says roughly. "Are you going to marry him?" "Yes."
Indeed, there is no cause to fear for me. The praise to Allah!" "Praise to Allah!" echoed Asad sneeringly, stung to reprisals by Iskender's tone. "But concerning that Emîr of thine I have a word to say. They have heard up there how thou hast fastened on him like a leech, and dost boast to all men that his wealth is thine.
"He might get loose and try to clean us out of all our grub," he suggested, with a broad smile. "Sure," replied Step-hen, sneeringly; "and I just warrant you've already got your tree all picked out beforehand, if he does. Much good you'd be trying to defend our provisions. Now, if it was me, I'd fight to the last gasp before I'd let him make way with a single piece of cheese, or even a cracker."
"The lady has escaped you, and it is therefore hardly likely she will willingly return to Helsingfors," I said. "It was you who succeeded, by throwing the guard into the water, in abducting her from the castle," he remarked. "But," he added sneeringly, with a sinister smile, "I presume your gallantry was prompted by affection eh?" "That is my own affair."
