"Write stories, and poems, and everything," urged Edna, aghast. "Of course," repeated Cricket, undauntedly. "It's as easy as rolling off a log. That isn't slang, Eunice, and you needn't look at me. Rolling off a log is really very easy indeed." For Eunice, though her own language was not always above reproach, was very apt to play censor to her younger sister. "We'd just make them up ourselves."
"Nor I," said Tom undauntedly. "They may also say that I was able to make myself useful to your family, and like a very tradesman, traded on the usefulness, buying a reluctant bride with it. But what do we care when we love each other, and God has given us to each other? 'They say, what do they say? Let them say." There was not the shadow of a cloud the size of a man's hand on Dr. and Mrs.
Their chief was an uncommonly fine negro, above six feet in height; and his head-dress was that of an African warrior, ornamented with a profusion of small shells. He advanced undauntedly with his gun in his hand, and, in insulting language, called out to Mr. Edmonstone to come on and fight him. Mr.
He began very early to compose. One of these first attempts was a concerto so difficult that no one could play it; but the child undauntedly said, "Why, that's the very reason why it is called a concerto; people must practise it before they can play it perfectly."
He had other acquaintances whom he pestered undauntedly; and from whom he occasionally extracted a dinner, or a crown, or mayhap, by mistake, a goldheaded cane, which found its way to the pawnbroker's. When flush of cash, he would appear at the coffee-house; when low in funds, the deuce knows into what mystic caves and dens he slunk for food and lodging.
The stricken beast tottered forward a yard or two, then turned and stood undauntedly at bay, as a sowar rode at it. But before his steel could touch its hide it shuddered and sank to the ground dead. The dying horse was lifted off the Maharajah who, with the courage of his race, had remained calm in the face of the onrushing death.
Eph didn't follow her. He found himself face to face with the thick set young man, Tom. Just of that worthy were two other sturdy-looking young hoodlums. "Now, you an' me have got something to settle, younker," glared Tom. "All right," retorted Eph, undauntedly. "But fair play one at a time." Eph's fists were up, and he sailed in, fighting manfully, sailor-fashion.
"Oh! if you would hate it," says Stephen, stiffly. "Yes, hate it," repeats she, undauntedly. "Why, indeed, should we be married for years? I am quite happy, aren't you?" No answer. Then, very severely, "Aren't you?" "Yes, of course," says Mr. Gower, but in a tone that belies his words. "Just so," says Dulce, "then let us continue happy. I am sure all these past months I have been utterly content."
Best and Magdalen; and in the first pause, when the first course had just been distributed, she looked up with a great pair of grey eyes, and asked, in a shrill, clear little voice, "Sister, may I have a bicycle?" "We will see about it, my dear," returned Magdalen, unwilling to pledge herself. "But haven't you got a fortune?" undauntedly demanded Thekla. "Something like it, Thekla.
But, if these pacific measures are ineffectual, and it appears the only way to safety lies through fields of blood, I know you will not turn your faces from our foes, but will undauntedly press forward until tyranny is trodden under foot, and you have fixed your adored goddess, Liberty, fast by a Brunswick's side, on the American throne." These were fearless words, and full of meaning.
