"Oh yes, I'm here," Maggie heard herself return a little flatly. "It's too close in-doors." "Very but close even here." Charlotte was still and grave she had even uttered her remark about the temperature with an expressive weight that verged upon solemnity; so that Maggie, reduced to looking vaguely about at the sky, could only feel her not fail of her purpose.
She had been down on her knees regulating the lantern, and the sudden flame, shooting up, had shown him her face turned up towards his in an apprehension which verged on horror. "Do I look frightened?" she asked, remembering herself and lightly rising. "I believe that I am a little frightened. If if anything should go wrong!
His outbursts, his efforts to stop the flow of them were not unlike the futile charges of a large and powerful animal harassed by a smaller and more agile one. With nimble politeness, with an exasperating air of deference to Ditmar's opinions, Mr. Siddons gave ground, only to return to the charge; yet, despite a manner and method which, when contrasted to Ditmar's, verged on the ludicrous, Mr.
The trees upon the banks were in leaf many of them in blossom and as the little craft verged near the shore, his keen eye followed the configuration of the leaves, to discover any new species that might appear.

It would be a poor compliment to say she was everything a male comrade could be. She was woman through it all. She was thoughtful, bright, amusing, resourceful. Yet we never verged beyond the bounds of mere camaraderie, nor do I think that either of us wished to do so. For the life of me I cannot say now who proposed it. I think the scheme must have been evolved spontaneously between us.
Herbert, in due course, was transferred from school to college, where he obtained a degree, and rapidly verged into manhood. Cecilia from the girl at length bloomed into the young lady.

From 4s. premium per share to 3s.; from 3s. to 2s.; from 2s. to 1s.; and thence to such a thing as 9d., 8d., 7d., and still downwards, till, as the hand of the dial verged upon the closing stroke of the bell, they condescended to resign their Long Range Excavators to the charge of buyers who could pay for the shares they held.
