"Never for an instant," said Fanny with her head very high. Maggie took it again, yet again as wanting more. "Pardon my being so horrid. But by all you hold sacred?" Mrs. Assingham faced her. "Ah, my dear, upon my positive word as an honest woman." "Thank-you then," said the Princess. So they remained a little; after which, "But do you believe it, love?" Fanny inquired. "I believe YOU."
As for me, she took the food which I carved, all as if I were a servant, without even such a thank-you as a man gives to a servant. We took the road again, about three o'clock; and even then the day was beginning to draw in a little, very bleak and dismal; and that, too, I took as a symbol of my heart within, and of my circumstances and prospects.
In the first place, he could not turn round without becoming dizzy; in the second place, he could not learn the steps to turn round with; and in the third place, when he did dance he had to dance with a girl! There was not a boy in all Charraud's, or in all Dodworth's, who could escort a girl back to her seat, after the dance was over, in better time, or make his "thank-you bow" with less delay.
Gregor had wanted to give a full answer and explain everything, but in the circumstances contented himself with saying: "Yes, mother, yes, thank-you, I'm getting up now." The change in Gregor's voice probably could not be noticed outside through the wooden door, as his mother was satisfied with this explanation and shuffled away.
"I assure you I'm very sorry. If I could explain the whole affair to you, you would see that I am not to blame. But, unluckily, I can't." "Oh, I don't want any explanations: I wouldn't give a thank-you for a cartload of 'em. Nobody ever is to blame who has the explaining of a thing, if it's ever so rascally a job." "I am very sorry," he repeated. "But I can only say that you shall be paid."
"Thank-you, Jack!" said I. "Would you just see that everything's safe from him before you turn-in again. There's always a siege of Jerusalem going on in his inside. The kangaroo-dog's the hungriest subject in the animal kingdom." "Well, no," replied Jack forbearingly, as he returned to his bed; "he ain't in it with the man-o'-war hawk.
That's the worst of dealing with a woman she can always hand it to you, and you've got to give her a grin and thank-you, because she ain't a man." He glanced back, then, and saw her sitting with her head dropped forward upon her hands. There was something infinitely pitiful and lonely in her attitude, and he knitted his brows over the contrast between it and her manner when he left her.
Yes, yes, yes. We are only too happy for what we can do for a charming little face like yours, and when we have obliged it, we say thank you! That is what I do, my little duck; thank-you, thank-you, thank-you. I am very grateful to you.... That is what I was thinking. I want to kiss you for that kind word.
She's a woman of infinite spirit and she likes other women to have spirit too. She's not without romance and I wouldn't give a thank-you for her if she were. If you'd run off out of restlessness or a mere whim or fit of temper, I doubt if she'd troubled about you further; but love that was another thing altogether. Oh, and your courage in escaping from that dissolute rascal that captured her.
Fräulein observed a meaningless familiarity with Kirtley as if he were an old member of the home circle. He wondered again if Rudolph had influenced and troubled from the first her relations with himself. And nowadays Tekla was surly toward him. She served him unwillingly and grabbed his occasional Trinkgelds with scarcely a thank-you.
