"As it is " he tentatively resumed and would have said more, a lot, anything to coerce the tears to her eyes and with them surrender. She gave him no chance. She took the bundle and, before he could continue, she passed him, opened the door, slammed it with a din that had in it the clatter of muskets, went down the stair and out to the perron, before which stood a car.
I should ha' comminst wid an explanation; but Jock, dear, on your sowl are ye fit, think you, for the finest fight that iver was betther than fightin' me? Considher before ye answer." More than ever puzzled, Learoyd turned round two or three times, felt an arm, kicked tentatively, and answered, "Ah'm fit." He was accustomed to fight blindly at the bidding of the superior mind.
But his self-confidence wilted under the false start. "How about arm-chairs?" he remarked tentatively, very much engaged with a cigarette. They removed their coffee-cups, and sipped once or twice in silence. "I'm waiting," said Broome, encouragement in his tone. But Roy still hesitated. "You see " he temporised, "I'm so fearfully keen, I feel shy of gassing about it.
The shipowner dictated a few messages to be sent by wireless, and then remarked: "When you're back in London, I suppose you'll be going to see your young lady as well as your parents?" Dean blushed. "Taking her back any presents?" "Yes, sir." "A ring?" "Not yet, sir." "Well, I don't doubt that'll come in its own good time." "You don't think I ought to ?" began Dean tentatively.
I paid him for his information with a cigarette, which he took very readily, and seemed to think smoking a pleasant relief after his disentangling labours. "An estancia without dogs, and where the master has nothing to say that sounds strange," I remarked tentatively, but he puffed on in silence. "What is the name of the house?" I said, after remounting my horse.
Le V. has many disciples, young men who look to him for guidance in all that concerns costume, and each morning come, themselves tentatively clad, to watch the perfect procedure of his toilet and learn invaluable lessons. I myself, a lie-a-bed, often steal out, foregoing the best hours of the day abed, that I may attend that levee. The rooms of the Master are in St.
Alix looked up at the outward curve of the reversed branches, bent almost to the splitting point in the unfamiliar direction, and whistled. She tentatively tugged at a loose spray, and stood biting her thumb. "Why it should have kept its place for fifteen years and then suddenly flopped, is a mystery to me!" she observed resentfully.
Tentatively, she was an artist; she would not grant more.... A little while before, she had been very close to becoming a woman. None but the Shadowy Sister knew how near. She came from an old fairy-book. A little girl had longed for a playmate, even as Beth, and one day beside a fountain appeared a Shadowy Sister.
"Either the University of Chicago, or further west." "I can give you commutation as far as Chicago." "I cannot accept it." "You must, Razorre." A week from then I left. I went up to Mrs. Tighe's room to say good-bye. Awkwardly and with the bearlike roughness of excessive timidity I put my arms about her, drew her to me tentatively.
Even in that innocent insolence of first womanhood, with its tentatively malicious, half-conscious flauntings, she was one of reticences toward the world including herself, with petticoats of decorum draping the child's anarchy of thought her luxuriant young emotions "done up" sedately with her hair. She was now one to be cautious indeed of imputations so blunt as this concerning Allan.
