She walked strongly but with a step as light as it was firm and free; and, breathing deeply with the healthful exercise, her cheeks were flushed with rosy color, her eyes shone, her countenance her every glance and movement betrayed a strong and perfect womanhood a womanhood that, rightly understood, is wealth that the race and age can ill afford to squander.
She thought of flight.... There was another black, the general had warned her, beyond the door, and there would be bars and bolts on any egress from the harem, but with the revolver in her possession some desperate escape might be achieved. But Ryder.... No, the gun was for another purpose.... She would not squander it yet upon herself....
After the death of my mother, he began to squander his immense fortune from sorrow, he said. When, in his time, he died at the period of the Prichard affair, he left me barely a thousand pounds sterling of income, plus two or three systems of gaming, the impracticability of which I learned later.
"A cheque for a hundred. I am going to squander it on railway lines as soon as possible." "You are going to join your family?" "Yes, I am going to join my family. What a sweetly domestic sound! I don't care a rap for my family.
No, I could never do it, not even if I were certain that she would squander the sixteen shillings in Bond Street fripperies instead of laying them up against the rainy day. It is Salemina who always unsnarls the weekly bill.
The sums he adroitly obtained by a violation of the laws of his country, as well as those of humanity, he would allow a mistress to squander; though she was, with the same sang froid, consigned, as were his children, to poverty, when another proved more attractive.
Why, bless your soul, I gave nearly eight weeks of time to the task of seeing Europe thoroughly, and, of those eight weeks, I spent upward of three weeks in and about London indeed, a most unreasonably long time when measured by the standards of the Englishman of letters who does a book about us. He has his itinerary all mapped out in advance. He will squander a whole week on us.
She was young younger than Concepcion; less battered by the world's contacts than Concepcion. She had the inexpressible virtue and power of youth. He was nearing fifty. And she, perhaps half his age, had confessed his charm. "And say! My Gilbert. Bring me a few flowers. I have not been able to go out to-day. Something very simple. I detest that one should squander money on flowers for me."
'Psha! Think of your rememberin' that! Well, no. The Zigler is a great gun the greatest ever but life's too short, an' too interestin', to squander on pushing her in military society. I've leased my rights in her to a Pennsylvanian-Transylvanian citizen full of mentality and moral uplift. If those things weigh with the Chancelleries of Europe, he will make good and I shall be surprised.
It rests entirely with you as to the manner in which it shall be used. If you elect to squander it, there is no one to say nay to you. It is expressly stated here that the trust comprehends the spread of the doctrines you advocate, but it does not pretend to guide or direct you in the handling of the funds. Mr. Thorpe trusts you to be governed by the dictates of your own honour.
