The king stood staring up in speechless amazement, and trembled so that his beard shook like grass in the wind. At last, turning to the queen, who was just as horror-struck as himself, he said, gasping, staring, and stammering, "She can't be ours, queen!" Now the queen was much cleverer than the king, and had begun already to suspect that "this effect defective came by cause."
I faced them all with a gambler's composure but behind my mask I was jellied with fear. However, when I rose to speak, the tremor passed out of my limbs, the blood came back to my brain, and I began without stammering. This first paper, fortunately for us all, dealt with Edwin Booth, whom I revered.
What right have you to come between a man and his affianced wife? I will not bear it you shall make me amends!" stammering with passion. "Saul says you are at the bottom of this." "Mr. Jacobi will have to prove it then," returned Malcolm quietly. "Prove it! Do you think we have not sufficient proof?" exclaimed Cedric angrily.
They tear down both body and mind but they have not the slightest power to build up. The spell of intense recurrence of either stammering or stuttering which follows a period of improvement, often marks the period of transition from one stage of the disorder into the next and more serious stage.
Prince Louis, the present King of Bavaria, and to-day perhaps the best king in Europe, was not so tall as his august father, neither was his face so handsome; and, unfortunately, he was afflicted with an extreme deafness, which made him raise his voice without knowing it, and in addition to this his utterance was impeded by a slight stammering.
Stuttering and stammering each express well-known conditions of speech, but there is another not recognised in dictionary language. If a person has been made a butt of, laughed at, joked, and tormented till he hesitates and fumbles as it were with his words, he is said to be in a state of "hacka." "Hacka" is to have to think a minute before he can say what he wants to.
I am nothing to Clarence; I have never been to him one-tenth of what Billy is! I have borne it, and borne it, and now I just can't bear it any longer!" And Rachael, to her own surprise and disgust, burst into bitter crying, and, stammering some incoherency about an aching head, she went to her own room and flung herself across the bed.
"What then?" "Happiness." "You can safely leave your happiness to me." She replied, jestingly: "I rather doubt the quality of the happiness which you would give me." "Wait! You'll see! You'll see!" They had reached the motor. Rossigny, still stammering expressions of delight, started the engine. Hortense stepped in and wrapped herself in a wide cloak.
Hadn't there been some hesitancy in the fellow's manner in his speech, indeed? Just what had Pepper said? Hiram concentrated his mind upon this one thing. What had the man said? "The option had er one year to run." Those were the fellow's very words. He hesitated before he pronounced the length of time. And he was not a man who, in speaking, had any stammering of tongue. Why had he hesitated?
A second examination revealed the fact that his stammering had progressed so rapidly since he had last talked with me, that it was now perilously near the stage known as Thought Lapse. His control was not entirely shattered, however, and he was accepted for treatment.
