He had called her a vain ambitious cold-hearted woman, who thought that her voice and her beauty could not be beaten. My reflections were interrupted by the policeman. "The lady," he remarked, "has lost her voice sudden-like. Now I lost my 'abit of arresting people sudden-like too. I lost it this morning.
Silly ignorant Goslings in the middle saying to Brahmins, 'And you are Muscleman, aren't you, or are you a Dhobi? and to Parsis, 'I suppose you High Caste gentlemen have to bathe every day? shoving their awful ignorance under the noses of everybody, and inquiring after the healths of the 'chief wives'. Silly fatuous geese! and then talking the wildest piffle about the 'burning question of the hour' and making the seditious rotters groan at their ineptitude and folly, until they cheer them up sudden-like with a bit of dam' treason and sedition they ought to be jailed for.
There he is now, he says sudden-like, pointin' to a guy amblin' along the sidewalk with half a dozen kids taggin' at his heels, 'there's the guy what's goin' to make your runners look like candidates from a young ladies' finishing school. Take a good look at him, Chip, so yuh'll know him the next time yuh see him.
In a very few minutes he returned, accompanied by his sturdy wife and his two rough, growing sons. "Wife," he said, "did you ever see the like in all your life Dan and Beersheba crouching down at that young girl's feet? Why, they're the fiercest dogs in the whole place!" "I heard them barking a while back," said Mrs. Miles, the farmer's wife, "and then they stopped sudden-like.
For him all the music of the place had turned to laughing discord until he spied her. "I thought" his tongue stumbled "I was thinkin' you had gone sudden-like same as you came down the road yesterday." He paused a moment. "You wouldn't go off by yourself and leave a lad without you said somethin' about it first, would you?" "I'll not leave ye till we get to Arden." "An' an' what then?"
She used to sing too, and such a pretty voice she'd got. I used to think she was like an angel when I was a child. And so she were. Whether she'd have married Mr. Fielding or not I don't know. There's some as thinks she would. They were very friendly together. And then, quite sudden-like, when everyone thought he'd been dead for years, her husband come home again.
These soft-hearted folk ain't goin' to let ye chaw the gentleman up to-day, but, if ever I set eyes on either of the scum agin, I'll give the varmints what's comin' to 'em, and I'll do it sudden-like, and I'll do it so it stays done, and there won't be nobody to stop me next time. If ye don't believe it, jest give me the chance.
"'Loreny, he says, solemn as a deacon, 'I didn't reckon never to tell nobody, an' you mustn't judge what I tell you too quick. I ain't made up my mind sudden-like, he says, 'but have studied myself and what I like and don't like, for years, and I've jist been forced to it, he says.
The pitiful figure gave the Captain an uneasy feeling as he tried to return her pathetic gaze. He replied kindly: "Eadie, you've always held a purty tight rein over that husband of yours, about the best I ever see drawn over a prancing colt. You'd best tighten up a mite on them reins, right sudden-like." "But I haven't any power over him now. He's that worked up that I can't even talk to him.
I brought it out sudden-like to Aileen before I could stop myself, but it was all true. How we were to make the first start we couldn't agree; but we were bound to make another big touch, and this time the police would be after us for something worth while. Anyhow, we could take it easy at the Hollow for a bit, and settle all the ins and outs without hurrying ourselves.
