My birthday was three weeks ago. 'Very much the same thing, I should think. Have you ever been to school? 'No, never! Miss Eyre has taught me everything I know. 'Umph! Miss Eyre was your governess, I suppose? I should not have thought your father could have afforded to keep a governess. But of course he must know his own affairs best.
"Umph!" answers Soltikof, not with much enthusiasm: "Send us meal steadily; and gain you, Excellenz's self, some noble success!" Friedrich did not hear of it for almost a week later; not till Monday, 10th, as a certain small Anecdote would of itself indicate.
They were just drawing up their chairs, and Russ was wondering how long his grandfather would be gone, when, all at once, a hollow groan sounded through the cabin. "Umph! Urr-rumph!" It was a most sorrowful and sad sound and, hearing it, Rose cried: "Why, there's the ghost again! Oh, it's come from Great Hedge down to this house! There's the ghost!" Again the hollow groan sounded.
I've forgotten the brush;" and resting the can on the top of the little gate-post, hurried back up the short flight of steps, and disappeared through the open door. "I say, there's a good cock-shy," said Noaks, nodding his head in the direction of the paint. "Umph! shouldn't like to try," answered Mouler. "Why not?" "Because Oaks would jolly well punch both our heads."
It was exactly the sort of help that Grunty needed. He gave a frantic plunge forward and fell, sprawling, on the ground outside the yard, where Spot soon joined him. "It takes old Spot to hurry 'em along," said the old dog gleefully. Grunty Pig said "Umph! Umph!" Old dog Spot was not quite sure what he meant. "Stop grunting and squealing and follow me!" old dog Spot growled.
After all, who suffers? Not she. She will have wealth, rank, honour. I shall suffer, to yield so pretty and pure a gem to the coronet of Faugh! How I despise that dog; but how I could hate, crush, mangle him, could I believe that he despised me! Could he do so? Umph! No, I have resolved myself that is impossible.
"Umph." "Little Mademoiselle?" "Poor little beast!" "Leaving!" "Seems like it she's been packing all the morning." "Because of that letter business?" "Oh, I dunno. Anyhow there's some story of some friend of Fraulein's travelling through to Besancon today and Mademoiselle's going with her and we're all to take solemn leave and she's not coming back next term. Come on."
"But you know he must be a papist!" said Mrs. Fielden. "Umph!" muttered the vicar, irresolutely. While the worthy couple were thus conversing, Susan and her lover, not having finished their conference, had turned back through the winding walk. "Indeed," said William, drawing her arm closer to his side, "these scruples, these fears, are cruel to me as well as to yourself.
"I am more or less of an expert on explosives, sir," he replied. "Umph," grunted Captain Trigger. "I see. Just the same, I think I'll be up and about by tomorrow. If I were your age, young man, you can bet I wouldn't be lying here in this bed." "On the other hand, if I were your age, Captain Trigger," said Percival, "I'd probably have sense enough to do exactly what the doctor ordered."
Anne was allowed then to proceed. "It was the morning I went to London. I went out to gather some mouse-ear." "Mouse-ear! mouse-ear!" growled he. "Some one else's ear." "It was for Lady Oglethorpe." "It was," said her uncle, "a specific, it seems, for whooping-cough. I saw the letter, and knew " "Umph! let us hear," said Sir Philip, evidently with the idea of a tryst in his mind.
