"Oh yes!" Lilian seated herself by the piano and stroked the keys with the tips of her fingers. Standing on the hearth-rug, her companion watched her closely for a moment; his forehead was wrinkled, and he did not seem quite at ease. "Glazzard is a very good fellow," he pursued, looking about the room and thrusting his hands into his trouser-pockets.
Leather on a drinking excursion, Leather having just got home in time to receive the purple-coated, bare-footed runner of Nonsuch House, who dropped in, en passant, to see if there was anything to stow away in his roomy trouser-pockets, and leave word that Sir Harry was going to hunt, and would meet before the house.
Time was needed to build up this climax! "Turn around," commanded Cotton; and Hal turned, and the Jew went through his trouser-pockets. He took out in turn Hal's watch, his comb and mirror, his handkerchief; after examining them and holding them up, he dropped them onto the floor. There was a breathless hush when he came to Hal's purse, and proceeded to open it.
After glancing superciliously at the documents, as if to intimate he could read them were he so disposed, he threw them down on the table, and, thrusting his gigantic paws into his capacious trouser-pockets, remarked slowly and decisively, in something deeper than a double-bass voice, "You'll have horses to-morrow morning."

Frank's trouser-pockets bulged and jingled a good deal as they started he had drawn all his remaining money in gold from the bank and they bulged and jingled considerably less as the two returned to tea in Jesus Lane.

Nicky-Nan turned about and stared at the placard as Lippity-Libby smoothed it over the paste, whistling. At that moment Un' Benny Rowett, hands in trouser-pockets, came dandering along.

And Peregrine, as he spoke, stood up from his chair, thrust his hands into his trouser-pockets, and shook his head. Sir Peregrine smiled as he answered him. "But Perry, my boy, we can't always say that.
We were all in a state of great mortification and uneasiness, when one of the little boys, running into the room as airily as little boys usually run who have an unlimited allowance of animal food in the holidays, and keep their hands constantly forced down to the bottoms of very deep trouser-pockets when they take exercise, joyfully announced that Mr.
He let his body lean against the iron post of a gas-lamp, stuck his hands in his trouser-pockets and stood there looking at the paving-stones. Now he was damned if he would take another step, he would rather croak here like a beast; then they would have to take him up and know that he existed.
