O Queen Hera, I die for a breath of air—I, the most patriotic woman in Athens!” “Silence, goodwife,” muttered Phormio, twisting desperately on the filthy straw under him. “Have I not enough to fret about without the addition of your pipings?” And he muttered underbreath the old saw of Hesiod:— “He who doth a woman trust, Doth trust a den of thieves.”
'Can he expect his adversaries to be tender with him? Cecilia simulated vehemence in an underbreath. She glanced down the page: 'FRENCH MARQUEES' caught her eye. It was a page of verse.

On my return the squire was sour and snappish, I cheerful and complaisant; I grew cold, and he solicitous; he would drink my health with a challenge to heartiness, and I drank to him heartily and he relapsed to a fit of sulks, informing me, that in his time young men knew when they were well off, and asking me whether I was up to any young men's villanies, had any concealed debts perchance, because, if so Oh! he knew the ways of youngsters, especially when they fell into bad hands: the list of bad titles rumbled on in an underbreath like cowardly thunder: well, to cut the matter short, because, if so, his cheque-book was at my service; didn't I know that, eh?
