And she'd got it too, sort of a black lacy creation, with jet spangles all over it, and long, sweepin' folds from the waist down, and with all that hair of hers done up flossy and topped with a fancy rhinestone headdress, she looked tall and classy. And stunnin'? Say, she had a neck and shoulders that made that Mrs. K. Taylor French party look like a museum exhibit! Then there was Mr.
"By Jove, that was dooced awkward of me yes, I beg your pardon, I'm sure. Should have looked where I was going what? said Romeo. "Not at all," answered Nickie politely. "My fault in blocking the path. My fault, entirely." "By Jo-o-ve!" gasped Romeo; "that's a stunnin' make-up, old chap what? Nevah saw a bettah, by gad." "Make-up?" said Nicholas. Mr. Crips had for gotten his false nose.
"They told me afterwards that Nelson gave orders to steer straight for the bow of the great Santissima Trinidad, and remarked, `It's too warm work to last long, but he did not return a single shot, though about fifty of our men had been killed and wounded. You see, he never was fond of wastin' powder an' shot. He generally reserved his fire till it could be delivered with stunnin' effect.
"Stunnin'!" roared Lord Holme, "simply stunnin'!" "Stunnin'! stunnin'!" exclaimed Mr. Laycock; "Rippin'! There's no other word. Simply rippin'!" "The what? The what?" cried Mrs. Ulford.

He could apostrophise his eye, on certain occasions, and tell it as though its own power of vision were an insufficient medium of information that "that wos a stunnin' iceberg;" or that "that wos a gale and a half, fit to tear the masts out o' the ship a'most." But for any less majestic object in nature, Jim Scroggles had nothing to say either to his eye, or his nose, or his shipmates.
'Yes; there was an oldish, very quiet, but determined-like man he had a stunnin' dorg with him and a young man something like this gentleman I mean the prisoner. I didn't see the other young man nor the half-caste in court. 'That's all very well, says our lawyer, very fierce; 'but will you swear, sir, that the prisoner Marston took any charge or ownership of the cattle?
