She was howling, part howling, and part giving directions to the proctor, when crash! down went my sister through a crazy chair, and made the clerks grin, and I grinned, and the widow tittered, and then I knew that she was not inconsolable. Mary was more frightened than hurt. "If he bring but a relict away, He is happy, nor heard to complain."
Some mischief-loving servants, lads and girls, tittered and laught, and jeered the bridal couple, especially the ladies' maids, who thought themselves far handsomer, and saw themselves infinitely better drest, and wondered how people could be so vulgar. A shudder came over Emilius: he lookt round for Roderick; but the latter as usual had already run away.
A general smile dawned upon the faces of the rest of the travellers. The priest over the way pinched his lips together, and looked down demurely. The two girls, next to the priest, tittered behind their handkerchiefs. The young man with the blue cravat sucked the top of his cane, and winked openly at his companions, both of whom were cracking nuts, and flinging the shells down the embankment.
He could hear somewhere the rapid shivering tones of a tiny bell. Ostrov waited. The door did not open. Ostrov rang once more. It was quiet behind the door. "I wonder how long there's to wait?" he grumbled, then gave a shout: "Hey, you in there!" A faint, muffled sound vibrated in the damp air, as if some one had tittered lightly. Ostrov caught hold of the brass handle of the gate.
I have no hesitation in saying that you are the most audacious and impertinent new boy with whom I have ever had to deal. I must cane you in my room after detention, to which you will of course go." "Thank you, sir," said Walter, with a smile of impudent sang froid; and the form tittered again as he walked noisily to his seat.
A simitar was thrust fiercely through the flaming girdle, and a gaudy hookah cuddled in the crook of her arm, while the bristling whiskers and encarmined cheeks and nose of the weather-beaten seafarer proclaimed a strong masculine personality in striking contrast to the pretty young men Turks and Persians that tittered in feminine fashion all about her.
‘A white feather,’ said his companion. ‘He! he!’ tittered the man in black.
You don't tell me you've persuaded mother " "I haven't said a word to her," the boy interrupted. "It isn't mumps; it's these breeches. If you can't find time to darn 'em, I'm not going to school till somebody can." The young man tittered, and the girl with a toss of her head and a glance at Parson Jack, who was pretending to tie his boot-lace accepted defeat.
Are you playing the ponies, Mrs. Devar?" That lady, being quick-witted, took care not to offend Cynthia by pretending not to understand, though it set Medenham's teeth on edge to hear a racehorse called a pony. She opened a gold purse and produced a coin. "I don't mind risking a little," she tittered.
It was as though the fire had been withdrawn from a molten metal which began instantly to harden. A woman next to Stonehouse tittered. "So vulgar and silly I don't know what people see in her." "I want to get away," Cosgrave said sharply. "It's this beastly closeness." He looked and walked as though he had been drinking.
