"I can't. You'll have to, Ruggles. You've had more practice." Ruggles turned red. I know he writes to Em White in vacations. "I'll do my best," he said, quite meekly. "That is, I'll compose it.
I thought it bad taste in Bella, under the circumstances, after snubbing Dallas and Max, and of course treating Jim like the dirt under her feet, to turn right around and be lovely to Mr. Harbison. It was hard for Jim. Max came and sat beside me, and Flannigan, who had been sent down for more cups, passed tea, putting the tray on top of the chimney.
And a snubbing from the Religious would be rather worse, on the whole, than a snubbing from the Royalty." "The Princess never snubbed you?" "Didn't she? Tremendously, once. Do you want to hear about it? Paul's. And acting as Extra Equerry I'd got instructions to call her a hack conveyance, and being young and downy, I'd picked H.R.H. the glossiest growler on the rank.
When I reflect that this was a type of the hotel clerk throughout the United States, that behind unnumbered registers at this moment he is snubbing travellers into the dust, and that they are suffering and perpetuating him, I am lost in wonder at the national meekness.

Pe-tweet, pe-tweet!" And truly she might well be angry at any one snubbing those young ones of hers.
Perhaps the most serious blow these officious young gentlemen had received hardly second to their snubbing by the Parretts' captain had been the mutiny of their own juniors, on whose cooperation they had calculated to a dead certainty.
"Your assumption of mature wisdom is eminently becoming," said I, "because it is so apparent." "My!" she retorted. "I really believe you improve with acquaintance." "Thanks," I said; "I need encouragement." "On the contrary," she said coolly, "I think a snubbing is what you need." I dodged. "Yes," said I, "I could not help noticing that their affection is er rather immoderate."
And thus snubbing, and being snubbed, dressing and dancing and feasting and flirting, did she soar higher and higher in her butterfly career.

He fagotted his notions as they fell; And if they rhymed and rattled, all was well. 'Of his early chiefs, he used to speak with most reverence of Lord Grey.
