"I have sent him up to bed," said Theobald, as he returned to the drawing- room, "and now, Christina, I think we will have the servants in to prayers," and he rang the bell for them, red-handed as he was. The man-servant William came and set the chairs for the maids, and presently they filed in. First Christina's maid, then the cook, then the housemaid, then William, and then the coachman.
His tastes if he had any were, as we have seen, simple; he had 900 pounds a year and a house; the neighbourhood was cheap, and for some time he had no children to be a drag upon him. Who was not to be envied, and if envied why then respected, if Theobald was not enviable? Yet I imagine that Christina was on the whole happier than her husband.
My advice to you both is, don't worry. Margaret, you've got black marks again under your eyes. You know that's strictly forbidden. First your aunt then your sister. No, we aren't going to have it. Are we, Theobald?" He rang the bell. "I'll give you some tea, and then you go straight to Ducie Street. I can't have my girl looking as old as her husband."
The name of Cibber was substituted throughout for that of Theobald, the portraiture remaining the same.
But even Lady Theobald felt that it would not do to slight Belinda Bassett's niece and guest. To omit the customary state teas would have been to crush innocent Miss Belinda at a blow, and place her through the medium of this young lady, who alone deserved condemnation beyond the pale of all social law.
The taste of Slowbridge was quiet, upon this Slowbridge prided itself especially, and, at the same time, tended toward economy. When gores came into fashion, Slowbridge clung firmly, and with some pride, to substantial breadths, which did not cut good silk into useless strips which could not be utilized in after-time; and it was only when, after a visit to London, Lady Theobald walked into St.
Then his mother would burst into tears and implore him to repent and seek the things belonging to his peace while there was yet time, by falling on his knees to Theobald and assuring him of his unfailing love for him as the kindest and tenderest father in the universe.
"Out? What does that mean?" "Out on the Atlantic. He was called back suddenly, and obliged to leave me. That is why I came here alone." "Pray do come into the parlor, and sit down, dear Lady Theobald," ventured Miss Belinda. "Octavia" "Don't you think it is nicer out here?" said Octavia. "My dear," answered Miss Belinda. "Lady Theobald" She was really quite shocked. "Ah!" interposed Octavia.
Theobald. I, however, was sending him daily screeds, and both matutinal and nocturnal telegrams, the composition of which afforded Raffles not a little enjoyment. "Well, then, when when?" I began to repeat. "To-morrow, if you like." "Only to look?" The limitation was my one regret. "We must do so, Bunny, before we leap." "Very well," I sighed. "But to-morrow it is!" And the morrow it really was.
As for animals, how can any rational person consider their sufferings, when there are men, women, and children with wrongs to be redressed?" Professor Theobald laughed. "My dear Fortescue, I knew you would have some ingenious excuse for your amiable weaknesses." "It is easier to find epithets than answers, Theobald," said the Professor with a smile.
