The force of the blow carried me forward, even as it bore him backward; and so, with his sword-blade in my shoulder, and my dagger where I had planted it, we hurtled over together and lay a second amidst what seemed a forest of equine legs. Then something smote me across the head, and I was knocked senseless. Conceive me, if you can, a sorrier, or more useless thing. A senseless Fool!
Most of my readers will not probably know how a man looks when he comes home drunk at six in the morning; but they who have seen the thing will acknowledge that a sorrier sight cannot meet a mother's eye than that of a son in such a condition. 'Oh, Felix! she exclaimed. 'It'sh all up, he said, stumbling in. 'What has happened, Felix? 'Discovered, and be d to it!
I would give anything to be like the Canon or my wife, the only two of us whose conscience doesn't reproach them when they see Jimmy's right sleeve. I remember Norah saying to me once, "I shall be sorry for you if you don't take care." Well, I am sorry for myself. But I am still sorrier for Mrs. Thesiger. I know there's a great deal to be said for her.
"I'm to blame for not telling you before when you were here last month," she said, with some agitation ... "Only I really didn't know my own mind ... All summer I seemed to ... just to take it for granted that everything was the same that I still cared for you. But Hugo, I don't. I'm sorrier than I can say for what has been my fault...."
We were sorry enough for the poor brutes, but sorrier still for ourselves. For several days, I limped in misery from a long row of savage blisters raised on my leg by rawhide knots with which my saddle had been repaired. An hour after starting, we were overtaken by a heavy thunder-shower.
They all whipped off their caps. "Now I see," Curly said: "Peter was bringing her to us." He threw himself sorrowfully on the ground. "A lady to take care of us at last," said one of the twins, "and you have killed her!" They were sorry for him, but sorrier for themselves, and when he took a step nearer them they turned from him.
Jewel wondered why Eloise flushed and looked still sorrier, and why aunt Madge raised her napkin and turned her laugh into a cough. Perhaps it teased young ladies to be called little girls. Jewel regretted having mentioned it.
"I suppose Zillah is pretty cranky to wait on," said Mrs. Tom sympathetically. "Oh, it isn't Zillah. Mary Bell looks after her. No, it's the house. I never lived in such a place of dust and disorder in my born days. I'm sorrier for David Hartley than I ever was for anyone before." "I suppose he's used to it," said Mrs. Tom with a shrug.
How desperately the old man must desire his daughter to have planned a mad scheme like this with a subterfuge at the expense of his best friend cunningly hidden away in the heart of it. Yet, after the first staggering flash, Varney had found it impossible to be angry with Mr. Carstairs. He only felt sorry for him, sorrier than he had ever felt for anybody in his life.
I think you will be even sorrier before long. So you've been ill-treating my soldiers, eh?" "It was not I who touched them." "Oh, so you didn't touch them? Ah! But you defied my power by refusing to bow down to the hat. I set up that hat to prove the people's loyalty. I am afraid you are not loyal, Tell." "I was a little thoughtless, not disloyal. I passed the hat without thinking."
