"What good'll it do me to go back ther'? I was goin' down, down, an' bringin' th' others with me. What good'll it do you or the rest to hev me ther'? To make me afraid? It's poor learnin' frum fear. Who taught me what was right? Who cared? No man cared fur my soul, till I thieved 'n' robbed; 'n' then judge 'n' jury 'n' jailers was glad to pounce on me. Will yoh gev me a chance? will yoh?"
Also Cargrim resolved to see the old gipsy himself and renew the conversation which she had broken off when she had thieved his gold. In one way or another he foresaw that it would be absolutely necessary to force the woman into making some definite statement either inculpating or exonerating the bishop in respect of Jentham's death.
I know this man that you talk of 'pitying. Well, I saw him at Zaraila three weeks ago; he had drawn up his men to die with them rather than surrender and yield up the guidon; I dragged him half dead, when the field was won, from under his horse, and his first conscious act was to give the drink that I brought him to a wretch who had thieved from him.
Down below, in little plush-lined trays, lay the small pipes, the boys' stuff. They lay scattered higgledy-piggledy, whole handfuls of them, crooked and straight, brown and black. His eyes thieved round voluptuously in those trays and they read with eager curiosity the neatly-written figures which informed the world how much each pipe cost.
Fil-de-Soie, an egotistical philosopher, who thieved to provide for the future, was a good deal like Paccard, Jacques Collin's satellite, who had fled with Prudence Servien and the seven hundred and fifty thousand francs between them. He had no attachment, he condemned women, and loved no one but Fil-de-Soie. As to le Biffon, he derived his nickname from his connection with la Biffe.
Indeed, they were safe enough from horsemen riding down from the Rolling R. So far they had thieved at their leisure and with impunity. The element of risk had been discounted until they no longer considered it at all, except when they were actually within the Rolling R Boundaries. Now, in the heat of the day, they slept as was their habit.
Mother was in the settle, of course, knitting hard, as usual; and Uncle Ben took to a three-legged stool, as if all but that had been thieved from him. Howsoever, he kept his breath from speech, giving privilege, as was due, to mother.
"That he thieved and poached, and did I know not what; and we could only encourage the fancy, for it put people off the truth as to how he really lived." "Amidst other things, they said, I believe, that he was out with the poachers the night my brother George was shot!" "And that night, my lord, he sat over this kitchen fire, and never stirred from it.
Again she went among the crowd, attended by The MacQuern; and the loans priceless now because she had touched them were in due course severally restored. When she took the canister from her acolyte, only the two studs remained in it. Not since the night of her flitting from the Gibbs' humble home had Zuleika thieved. Was she a back-slider?
"He hath given her his skins; he hath thieved upon himself." "Why hath he not taken another to wife? Verily men are few; women are many. And all gaze favorably upon Ootah." "Yea, his arm is strong." "There is courage in his heart." "He feareth not the night." "He should press his face upon the face of one who is fair; his wife should bear children."
