"I apprehend that you are unsuitably proud, Joseph."
"I do not think that Margaret could behave unsuitably," said Janetta, suddenly flushing up. "I am obliged to you for your good opinion of my daughter. But that is not the point. Did you notice whether she was talking or walking a great deal with one person, or "
He observes, very justly, that the odes, both of Dryden and Pope, conclude, unsuitably and unnaturally, with epigram. He then spends a page upon Mr. Handel's musick to Dryden's ode, and speaks of him with that regard which he has generally obtained among the lovers of sound.
The English teacher's name being Rhodes, it was obvious that she should be addressed as Cecil, especially as her parents had been misguided enough to give her the unsuitably gentle name of Mary.

In his hand he held open a small book, in which he noted down all the turns of the game.
I might have been telling him it was a fine day. "You're sacked!" "Very good, sir." He coughed gently.
