"But what under heavens," asked Philip, "induced you to come to New York with Laura! What was it for?" "What for? Why, she wanted me to come.
He received his bun, and demurely dropping on his front legs, walked back with it to his master, and crossed the road with it uneaten, rather to Alwyn's disappointment, but Mr. Dutton said he would probably dispose of it in some hiding-place in the garden until his evening appetite came on.
A real man, who cared for adventure and beauty, who desired to live decently and pay his way, who could have travelled more gloriously through life than the juggernaut car that was crushing him.

Chappe-Hall, being bidden farewell on his leaving for Auckland, was apostrophizing Tahiti in verse, all the stanzas ending in "And the glory of her eyes over all."

When Bella appeared she at once noticed the headless but uneaten egg, and, taking it up, smelt it. "What's wrang wi' the egg?" she demanded. "Oh, nothing," said Pamela quickly.
He saw the hunger in the lad's eyes as they swept over the breakfast-table, still heavy with uneaten breakfast bacon, nearly the whole of an omelette, and rolls, toast, marmalade and honey. "Wait a second," he said, as the boy turned toward the door. "Yes, y'r gryce." "Had your breakfast?" "I has me brekfist w'en I sells me pypers."
