Tuppy, Angela, Gussie and the Bassett not on speaking terms, and self faced with an eight-mile ride " "Nine, I believe, sir." " a nine-mile ride, and another nine-mile ride back." "I am sorry, sir." "No good being sorry now. Where is this foul bone-shaker?" "I will bring it out, sir." He did so. I eyed it sourly. "Where's the lamp?" "I fear there is no lamp, sir." "No lamp?" "No, sir."
As the Sepoy pocketed the gem he looked at Raikes with a glance at once searching and derisive as he asked: "Was I not right in calling it a marvel?" "Aye!" returned Raikes sourly, "marvel, indeed; but the miracle of it is that you have it back again. Your trust in human nature would be sublime were it not so unsupported; it needs the tonic of loss. I hope this is not habitual?"
When Dummie had spelt his "toilsome march" through the first of the above extracts he turned round to the tall stranger, and, eying him with a sort of winking significance, said, "So MacGrawler peaches, blows the gaff on his pals, eh! Vel, now, I always suspected that 'ere son of a gun! Long Ned dropped his pipe, and said sourly and with a suspicious frown, "What! you know me?"
When it was all poetry and romance and beautiful idealism! When Dante and Beatrice were possible!" Gwent smiled sourly. "They never WERE possible!" he retorted "Dante was, like all poets, a regular humbug. Any peg served to hang his stuff on, from a child of nine to a girl of eighteen.
I wonder if it's true!" For an instant she was afraid, then her soul rallied as to a bugle call. "Even so," she thought, "I'll take it, and gladly. I'll serve and sacrifice and give, and never mind the answer." She hurried down-stairs, where the others were waiting. "You're late, Rosemary," said Grandmother, sourly. "Yes, I know," laughed the girl, stooping to kiss the withered cheek. "I'm sorry!
Fouquier had a clerk named Paris-Fabricius. Now Paris had been a friend of Danton and took his condemnation to heart. He even declined to sign the judgment, which it was his duty to do. The next day, when he presented himself to Fouquier, Fouquier looked at him sourly, and observed, "We don't want men who reason here; we want business done." The following morning Paris did not appear.
Ray came to the gate instead of Judy, and rather sourly demanded what we were yelling about. When she heard our news, however, she had the decency to say she was glad, and to promise she would convey the good tidings to Sara "who is already in bed, where all children of her age should be," added Mrs. Ray severely. WE had no intention of going to bed for a good two hours yet.
"I'm Rachel's friend, Peppajee." Good Indian spoke softly so that others might not hear. "I sabe what Rachel do. Rachel good girl. I don't want to bring trouble. I want to help." Peppajee snorted. "Yo' make heap bad heart for Rachel," he said sourly. "Yo' like for be friend, yo' no come no more, mebbyso. No speakum. Bimeby mebbyso no have bad heart no more. Kay bueno. Yo' white mans.
And change my life, all to please thee, Soolsby?" He took the old man's shoulders in his hands again. "Thee has done thy duty as few in this world, Soolsby, and given friendship such as few give. But thee must be content. I am David Claridge, and so shall remain ever." "Then, since he has no male kin, the title dies, and all that's his will go to her ladyship," Soolsby rejoined sourly.
Where is the sin of a little indulgence, Madonna?" he went on, turning again to Valentina. "These men of mine will prove their mettle when it comes to blows. They are dogs perhaps but mastiffs every one of them, and would lose a hundred lives in your service if they had them." "Aye, if they had them," put in Gonzaga sourly; "but having no more than one apiece, they'll not care to spare it."
