It is a good one and they know it much better than they would make for themselves, probably. But for that reason it is so very bad." The little oriental laughed a queer, sniggering laugh. His eyes were very bright, dilated, completely black. He was looking into the ice-blue, pointed eyes of Aaron Sisson. They were both intoxicated but grimly so. They looked at each other in elemental difference.
"What are you sniggering about?" "He had a meal. Things to put in his inside," said Kathleen, still giggling. "Oh, be funny if you want to," said Jimmy, suddenly cross. "We don't want to know do we, Jerry?" "I do," said Gerald witheringly; "I'm dying to know. Wake me, you girls, when you've finished pretending you're not going to tell."
"Old Tug left no will," shrieked Jemmy; "he didn't die to leave his estates to blackamoors to negroes to base-born mulatto story-tellers; if he did may I be " "Oh, hush! dearest mamma," says Jemimarann. "Go it again, mother!" says Tug, who is always sniggering. "What is this business, Mr. "What is this will?" "Oh, it's merely a matter of form," said the lawyer, riding up.
It was easy doubtless justifiable sometimes to put a lewd construction on these disappearances; but I felt it need not have been so; that it was not necessary that youth and beauty, even the sexual act itself if led up to by love, should be a subject of giggling and sniggering.

"What's the joke, Buck?" asked Bob coldly, as he looked from one to the other of the sniggering faces.
"Curse ye!" cried M'Adam, starting back. "Ye devil, let me alone!" Then turning fiercely on the drover, "Yours, mister?" he asked. The man nodded. "Then call him aff, can't ye? D n ye!" At which Teddy Bolstock withdrew, sniggering; and Jim Mason slung the post-bags on to his shoulder and plunged out into the rain, the faithful Betsy following, disconsolate.
A man might be an angel or an Apollo, and a mustard-coloured coat would wholly blind them to his merits. I was a prisoner, a slave, a contemned and despicable being, the butt of her sniggering countrymen. I would take the lesson: no proud daughter of my foes should have the chance to mock at me again; none in the future should have the chance to think I had looked at her with admiration.
By the way, can anything be more loathsomely idiotic than the average music-hall ditty, with its refrain and its quaint stringing together of casual filthiness? If I had not wanted to fix a new picture on my mind I should have liked better to be in a tap-room among honestly brutal costers and scavengers than with that sniggering, winking gang.
'Noel wasn't sniggering, said Alice in a hurry; 'it is only his taking so much interest in what you were saying makes him look like that. Be quiet, H. O., and don't you make faces, either.
