These things unmanned him as the sight of the gallows and the rope for his hanging could not have done. Shielding himself with an affected roughness, he asked: "What the hell’s the matter with you? I’ve been drinking like a beast of an Indian, and you give me coffee instead of a tongue-lashing." The color had all gone out of her face.
He jumped up and closed the door, and was about to give me a tongue-lashing, when I anticipated him by saying: "Doctor, don't it beat thunder about that girl? Great Heavens!

Your father will be having serious words with you in the morning, young man. Now, up to your room immediately!"

It was a tongue-lashing, indeed, and one that left the conductor no chance to reply. "It's 'gainst orders, and you know it, Toomey," was his futile gasp, when Toomey stopped for breath. "'Gainst orders you've broken time and again, and you know it! 'Gainst orders Bob Anthony would break your head for not breaking!

It's a wonder your ears didn't burn like fire, miss. "They said it was a beastly shame.
