"The more work in the fall the less in the spring that's a proverb for you." "I don't want no proverb," returned Amos sullenly. "I want my rights, an' I want the country to give 'em to me." "I ain't never seen no good come of settin' down an' wishin' for rights," remarked his wife tartly. "It's a sight better to be up an' plantin'."
"I know nothing of what he hides in the satchel," answered the Khania sullenly. "And yet, yonder in the Gatehouse when he lay so sick he set the lock against thine own ah, dost remember now?" "So, O Hes, already he has told thee all our secrets, though they be such as most men hide within their breasts;" and she looked contemptuously at Leo.
"Hester began it," said Dick, sullenly. "Oh, yes; blame it all on Hester!" cried that angry maiden, herself; "blame everything on Hester, and nothing on Marjorie. Dear, sweet, angel Marjorie!" "Now, Hester Corey, you stop talking about my sister like that, or I'll get mad," stormed King. "She's Queen of this Club, and she's got a right to boss. And you needn't get mad about it, either."
Although the question was asked in an intonation of voice affecting to be one of astonishment only, there was nevertheless in it an accent of reproof that was especially irritating to Kate in her present mood.

There he stayed the driver while he made a last, a humorous appeal. "Skiddoo?" he asked in my native speech. "Yes," I sullenly replied, "skiddoo!"
