I had my reasons for coming here, and likewise, so has he. That's my business and his, by thunder! but when he meddles in my affairs he's got to show his hand. Now is it, or ain't it, business 'twixt you and him?" "What kind of business?" Joyce's voice was low and even. She was approaching her father cautiously and fearfully. "Honourable or otherwise?" A silence followed.
The village people say he walks!" "And Monica said it was nothing but nonsense and superstition." Lindsay tried to sound brave, but she held Cicely's arm tightly notwithstanding. Poor Cicely felt "'twixt Scylla and Charybdis". To toll the bell seemed their only chance of escape, and to do so they must certainly mount into the square room where the rope was hanging.
Duties strive with duties, Thou must needs choose thy party in the war Which is now kindling 'twixt thy friend and him Who is thy emperor. MAX. War! is that the name? War is as frightful as heaven's pestilence, Yet it is good, is it heaven's will as that is. Is that a good war, which against the emperor Thou wagest with the emperor's own army? O God of heaven! what a change is this.
The three Battalions which remained were now arranged in 'depth, a phrase explained by stating that while one, say the Berks, held the front line 'twixt Fayet and Gricourt, the Gloucesters as Support Battalion would be in Holnon Wood and ourselves, the Oxfords, in reserve and back at Ugny.

I take the liberty of saying that in our little hamlet there is peace and goodwill 'twixt rich and poor at Christmas-time. "Now is the ancient feud forgot, The growing grudge is laid aside." Our humble rejoicings during this last Christmas were very similar to those of a hundred years ago. So from villages three and four miles away came bands of children to sing the old, old songs.

"It was partly true," answered the landlord, "for you and the old gentleman who came with you were seamen I could swear to that; and how should I know that you didn't sink them away there 'twixt this and Portsmouth?"
"No!" she replied meditatively, striving to be conscious of her own feelings, "I do not think that I am unhappy ... only anxious ... and ... a little lonely: that is all.... Sir Marmaduke is oft away: when he is at home, I scarce ever see him, and he but rarely speaks to me ... and methinks there is but scant sympathy 'twixt Mistress de Chavasse and me, though she is kind at times in her way."
