"You are not the Governor, Monsieur Doltaire," she said, more sharply still. "But a Governor may demand admittance to this convent, and by the order of his Most Christian Majesty he may not be refused: is it not so?" "Must I answer the catechism of Monsieur Doltaire?" "But is it not so?" he asked again urbanely. "It is so, yet how does that concern you, monsieur?" "In every way," and he smiled.

"Of course, we knew nothing of this" he tapped the confession as he spoke "before you came in." Sir Hilary Thornton smoothed his moustache. "It has been an unpleasant business for all of us," he said urbanely, "and particularly for you, Mr. Grell.

Me, I was probably that busy with fambly cares I was probably thinking who was it et the lemon pie on me was it Pete or Johnny, or shall I lick 'em both together, or just bite me wife." Mr. Wrenn knew that the ticket-taker had never, never really considered biting his wife. He knew! His nod and grin and "That's the idea!" were urbanely sophisticated.

We had delightful food, well cooked. I do not remember what it was. My attention was divided between the old man and his daughter. He talked, urbanely, of a wide range of topics, displaying a cosmopolitan taste, employing a choice of words and phrases that was astonishing. The girl, who turned out to be very pretty in a dark, pale, sad way, never raised her eyes from her plate.

"Mr. Gratton," smiled urbanely. For his own part he might have been called every inch a concrete expression of suavity.

I could see something devilish in the smile at Doltaire's lip's, but his look was wandering between Alixe and me, and he replied urbanely, "I have ambition yet to connive at captivity"; and then he looked full and meaningly at her.
