We have seen that Perrot states that if anyone attempted to hold the ball with his feet, he took his chance of injury, and that those who were injured retired quietly from the field. Adair says, "It is a very unusual thing to see them act spitefully, not even in this severe and tempting exercise."
She had no colour, but her curved lips were faintly pink, as were the palms of her soft, idle hands. "I shall be glad when she is married," her aunt said often. "It is very well for Maria or Carmela to go through the streets alone, but Gemma is otherwise, and I cannot be always running after her. Then her temper ... Dio mio!" "Perhaps it is the vinegar," suggested Carolina rather spitefully. "No.
Now and then it barked spitefully, had half a notion to stop, changed its mind, ran faster than it should, wheezed and slowed down acting in an altogether unreasonable way. But it kept the screw humming nevertheless. Fortunately it was going at a mad clip when we sighted the Dauphin. There was not that sibilance and thunder that had turned me a bit gray inside at first sight of the Eagle.
"And I say that it shall not be done until after the marriage ceremony has been performed," declared Sally, furiously; adding, spitefully: "You want to cheat me out of becoming Jay Gardiner's wife. But I defy you! you can not do it! He shall marry me, in spite of you all!" At that moment there was a commotion outside. The minister had arrived.
'Sure, isn't my lord's car waiting for you since two o'clock! said the host spitefully, for he was not conciliated by a courtesy that was to lose him a fifteen-shilling fare.

A crowd of mostly smaller pupils surged behind a dwarfish, care-worn, lop-sided boy whose back showed the slight beginnings of a hump. They teased him cheerfully and spitefully the words were unintelligible because of the noise but surely malicious. He was pushed so that he stumbled. Many older high school pupils looked on, amused at the lively rough-housing.
"It was the Hawkins Anti-Fire-Fly," I said spitefully. "Fly away from fire with the Anti-Fire-Fly, you know. Tell your wife about it, Hawkins." Then Mrs. Hawkins addressed her husband and said but let that pass. We have all the essential facts of the case as it is.
