This was said to justify her unguarded admission, and did, after a fashion. "I think it is time to go to mamma," said she demurely. "So soon? And I had so much to say to you." "Oh, very well. I am all attention." The sudden facility offered set Alfred stammering a little.
Whose is that letter of your mistress? Do these belong to the cardinal? Upon my honor, this man fancies the world belongs to him. There you stood, stammering, stupefied, annihilated. One might have supposed the Bastille appeared before you, and that the gigantic Medusa had converted you into stone. Is being in love conspiring?
She put out her hand for the package, but Thad had already pounced upon it. "I I'm going your way," he said, a trace of his recent disorder in his stammering speech. "I'll carry it for you." Silently Diantha accepted the offer.
I need not repeat what was said that morning over the type cases. It was not a sermon, nor a catechism; only a few stammering laboured words spoken by a boy who felt himself half a hypocrite as he said them, and who yet, for the affection he bore his friend, had the courage to go through with a task which cost him twenty times the effort of rescuing the boy yesterday from his bodily peril.

To my consternation, he suddenly broke away, with his arms up, puffing and stammering, stamping his feet. He would have a truce he insisted on a truce, I understood him to exclaim, and that I was like a woman, who would and would not, and wanted a master.
I was not inclined to dismiss him because of his misconduct, because it was evident that here was a boy of more than ordinary native intelligence, a fine-looking chap with untold opportunities ahead of him, if he were cured of stammering.
"Yes, but, as God sees me, I would have looked for no recompense at your hands." "Never?" "Never unless " "Unless, sir?" "Unless I I had dreamed it possible that you could ever have loved me." Barnabas was actually stammering, and he was looking at her pleadingly, she knew, but this time my lady kept her face averted, of course.
"Batouch!" Androvsky said. But he could not go on. He could not say anything about the two tents to a servant. "Where where is Madame?" he said almost stammering. "Out there, Monsieur." With a sweeping arm the poet pointed towards a hump of sand crowned by a few palms. Domini was sitting there, surrounded by Arab children, to whom she was giving sweets out of a box.
