What was he to do, should Neefit cling to his threat and remain permanently at his chambers? There were the police, and no doubt he could rid himself of his persecutor. But he understood well the barbarous power which some underbred, well-trained barrister would have of asking him questions which it would be so very disagreeable for him to answer! He lacked the courage to send for the police.
"This this person is with them, and they seem to count him as a man," answered Jemima, with a gesture of intense scorn. Mrs. Harrington here was seen to draw up her horse in the shade of a huge chestnut, and playfully beckon the widower with her whip. "Jemima, I must. It would be underbred," cried the desperate man, riding away to the enemy. Jemima sat upon her horse, petrified with amazement.
An underbred book that is, a book in which the underbred characters are the natural outcome of the author's own, mind and apprehension of life is worse than any possible epidemic; for while the epidemic may kill a number of useless or vulgar people, the book will make a great number.
Even in so democratic a country, and with so exanimate a crown as is to be found in the United Kingdom, the royal establishment visibly, and doubtless very materially, conduces to the continued tenure of the effectual government by representatives of the kept classes; and it therefore counts with large effect toward the retardation of the country's further move in the direction of democratic insubordination and direct participation in the direction of affairs by the underbred, who finally pay the cost.
The shrieks of schoolgirls, playing in the yard at recess-time, seem to drown the voices of the boys. As you enter an evening party, it is the women's tones you hear most conspicuously. There is no defect in the organ, but at least an adequate vigor. In travelling by rail, when sitting near some rather underbred party of youths and damsels, I have commonly noticed that the girls were the noisiest.
King, and your absurd assumption of equality with refined people who frequent this house, exactly the same underbred country girl as you were in your old brown house, goodness knows wherever that is." "I'm glad I am," declared Polly. And she actually laughed merrily, while she squared her sturdy shoulders.
"I suppose I'm awfully susceptible to physical impressions. Are all girls that way? Or is that gross and and underbred?" "It's part of us, I expect; but we're not all so honest with ourselves. So you decided to throw over Mr. Eyre and marry your Briton." "Well yes.
"Dressed before you, after all, Miss Vernon," cried Mrs. Haughton, with latent malice. Even small Sir Tilton raised his eyebrows; for one moment Vaura was non-plussed; "underbred poor uncle," was her thought as she said quietly: "I have dined in salons at Brighton in this gown, Mrs. Haughton; I have listened to Patti robed as you see me." "How mean of step-momma," thought Blanche.
I assumed that it had been developed in the City, where Charlie was picking up the curious nasal drawl of the underbred City man. "When the thing's done we'll talk about it. I can't make anything of it at present. Red-haired or black-haired hero are equally difficult." He was sitting by the fire staring at the red coals. "I can't understand what you find so difficult.
And when your building-loan stock matures and you do get a little money, you spend it for this this underbred little sewing-machine, and lure me out in it, and lecture me, as if I as if I were to blame. I don't know what has come over you." I knew what had come over him. I knew the secret of the new spirit animating the frail personality of Professor Todd. And Willie knew.
