His ride on a horse along the coast had manifestly not been the most fitting exercise for a man new out of bed and the hands of his physician. "What about the foreigner?" said he at length, and glowered the more into the interior as if he might espy him. Mungo was cautious. This was the sort of person who on an impulse would rush the guard and create a commotion in the garrison; he temporised.
"Hear it now: if you do not order your lives to do all the good you can, if you are false to one trust, you shall be stripped naked before Jehovah of all your anticipations of greatness. And you have failed in your work; you have been false to your trust; you have been lax and wicked, and you have temporised, nay, affiliated with Gentiles.
In the cobwebbed parlour, meanwhile, Doctor Ralph was in the hands of the attorney for the prosecution, who questioned him ceaselessly. "What's wrong with Minty?" "Broken ankle." "How did it happen to get broke?" demanded Miss Hitty, with harshness. "I never knew an ankle to get broke by falling off a ladder." "Any ankle will break," temporised Dr. Ralph, "if it is hurt at the right point."
We have temporised with it from the necessities of our condition; but as sure as God reigns and school children read, that black foul lie can never be consecrated into God's hallowed truth."
The voice was interested, and so were the eyebrows; but Monk was at pains not to move. "And has he?" "Not yet, old egg." Monk opened expectant eyes and fixed them upon Lanyard's face, the eyebrows acquiring a slant of amiable enquiry. "There is much to be said," Lanyard temporised. "That is, if you feel strong enough..." "Oh, quite," Monk assured him in tones barely audible.
And I don't want to stick here till I'm too old to enjoy seeing the world." "What should you consider too old, Nicky?" asked Ishmael. Nicky hesitated; he made a rapid calculation in his head, and arriving at the fact that his father must be quite forty-six or seven, and being always averse to hurting anyone's feelings unless it was very worth while, he temporised.
Ain't it right there in print, as plain as the nose on your face? You can see for yourself. I hope studyin' law ain't goin' to make an infidel of you." "I don't think it will," temporised Roger. "I'll keep a close watch for designing females, and will avoid railroad tracks at night." Miss Mattie shook her head doubtfully. "That ain't a goin' to do no good, Roger, if they once get set after you.
He is just your style." That meant the style of man who fell in love with her, now always younger than herself. "Got bad news, have 'ee, or is it good?" asked Mrs. Penticost, who could contain herself in silence no longer. She gave up the pretence of dusting and stood frankly looking at her lodger. "I I don't quite know how to take it, Mrs. Penticost," temporised Blanche.
Great Britain, it seemed, in an access of meanness, temporised and wrangled with the imperial spirited Butteridge and his extraordinary invention. That also was not in play and could not be for some months at the earliest. From Asia there, came no sign. The Germans explained this by saying the yellow peoples were without invention. No other competitor was worth considering.
"At least I'm in the fashion, then!" Penelope smiled briefly. "Small credit to you if you are," she retorted. "People are simply shirking work nowadays. And you're as bad as anyone. You've not tried to pick up the threads again you're just idling round." "It's catching, I expect," temporised Nan beguilingly. But the lines on Penelope's face refused to relax.
