"And when I said, after while, 'Now I must go, she was that unneighborly she never ast me, 'What's your hurry?" "Was she that spited!" said Mrs. Wackernagel, half pityingly. "Well, it was just like Sister Jennie Hershey, if she didn't want Teacher stayin' there, to tell him right out. Some ain't as honest. Some talks to please the people."
It seems that our hero, considering himself spited by a Latin- grammar master, demanded the satisfaction due from one man of honour to another. Not getting it, he privately withdrew his haughty spirit from such low company, bought a second-hand pocket- pistol, folded up some sandwiches in a paper bag, made a bottle of Spanish liquorice-water, and entered on a career of valour.
He plunged in, and had gone half-way across when the Evil One, not to be spited, appeared as a huge moss-bunker, vomiting boiling water and lashing a fiery tail.
Of course he did it to spite Daffydowndilly, but I'm not a bit 'spited. I feel as though I ought to go to the girl in the case and tell her what I know about him. But it's useless to think of doing so." Arline devoted further space to affectionate inquiry regarding Grace's troubles and ended with the naïve announcement: "The other day I met a perfectly delightful young man at a dinner dance.
"What's the matter of her anyways?" the woman wonderingly said to herself as she went back to her work. "Is it that she's so spited about that letter pop burnt up?

Where's she goin' to, I wonder!
The agent had developed a habit of drinking, had favored his friends and spited his enemies, and he allowed certain distant portions of the estate to go finely to ruin, quite undisturbed by any sentimental meddling of the priestly sort.
This is the temptation of those who are rescued and made happy by circumstances. The wretched think themselves spited, and are merely childish, not egregious in egoism. Thither on leads to a chapter already written by the wise, doubtless.
Of course he spited the poor young chap, and how could the fact be denied when the poor ghost had come back to ask for his blood? So the awful suspense ended with 'Guilty, my Lord. "Of murder or manslaughter?" "Of murder." The prisoner stood as no doubt he had faced Turkish batteries.
In the mean time Robert returned to Normandy, took possession of that duchy, with great applause and content of his people, and, spited at the indignity done him by his father, and the usurpation of his brother in consequence thereof, prepared a great fleet and army to invade England; nor did there want an occasion to promote his interest, if the slowness, the softness, and credulity of his nature, could have suffered him to make a right improvement of it.
