Wants us to think it's not true." "She was very earnest about it," said the ambassador. Diva got up, and tripped over the outlying skirts of Mrs. Poppit's fur coat as she went to ring the bell. "Sorry," she said. "Take it off and have a chat. Tea's coming. Muffins!" "Oh, no, thanks!" said Mrs. Poppit. "I've so many calls to make." "What? Similar calls?" asked Diva. "Wait ten minutes. Tea, Janet.
"Isn't it rather hard on the Chee-si's?" asked Torps, "being done out of their parties no, Jess, three lumps are considered quite enough for little dogs to consume at one sitting." The Skipper's Missus looked across the cabin at her husband: "Tim, your tea's getting cold. Why shouldn't we have a children's party on board one day next week? It isn't too late, is it?"
"What could have made Janet frighten herself and me so?" she said, as she spread out her cold hands to the blaze, all the time watching her sister's bright face. "Graeme, tea's over. Where have you been all this time?" asked Rose. "My father was asking where you were. He wants to see you," said Will. "I'll go ben now," said Graeme, rising. The study lamp was on the table unlighted.
A little figure, smaller than Rosy even, was standing in the doorway, looking at her with a troubled face, but not seeming very surprised. "Losy," it said, "tea's seady. Fix is comed for you." "Then Fix may go away again. Rosy doesn't want any tea. Rosy's too bovvered and vexed. Go away, Fix." But "Fix," as she called him, and as he called himself, didn't move.
Gladys only vaguely understood, but gathered that she was censuring the old man with the utmost severity. 'Oh, I don't think he is as rich as people say, and he is very kind to me, said she quickly.

Hilary's bedroom, looking across a gulf of forty years and saying nothing at all, for she knew it would be of no manner of use, since words don't carry as far as that. So all she said was "Tea's ready, Grandmother." And Mrs. Hilary supposed that Gerda hadn't, probably, noticed or understood those very queer things she had come upon while reading "The Breath of Life." They went down to tea.
"That's a nice way to carry bound books, as if they were a lot of bricks. I'll warrant you have lost a dozen between Mallory's and here. But easy come, easy go.

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Alford. Now, it's your tea's getting cold." They laughed together, and he gave himself to his victual with a relish that she visibly enjoyed.
"The tea's cold and as black as ink," growled the indignant lodger, "and the egg isn't eatable." "I'm afraid you're a bit of a fault-finder," said Mrs. Hatchard, shaking her head at him. "I'm sure I try my best to please. I don't mind what I do, but if you're not satisfied you'd better go." "Look here, Emily " began her husband. "Don't you 'Emily' me!" said Mrs. Hatchard, quickly.

The Home Government are buying largely. He is commissioned to purchase 30,000 head of prime beeves. Come along, tea's ready." Bill seated himself at the table and Jacky poured out the tea.
