The three are disagreeable, but the trio is transitional in type. Each girl is a compromiser, Undine being the boldest; she did a lot of shifting and indulged in much cowardly evasion. Vulgarians all, they are yet too complex to be pinned down by a formula. Old wine in these three new bottles makes for disaster. Undine Spragg is the worst failure of the three.
He had not the nice tact that makes beauty of ugliness without the loss of identity. He could not ennoble vulgarians. The sordid man bore the stamp of baseness on his canvas. His pictures were too true; and truth is death to the portrait painter. He began to grow morbid in his feelings, and was fast verging to a misanthrope.
Before a day the beau-monde, before a week even the vulgarians of the rest of the town, rang with the fame of her charms; and while the dandies and the beauties were raving about her, or tearing her to pieces in May Fair, even Mrs.
That one caress, one that I'd thought a sacred secret between us forever and in plain sight of those three hideous vulgarians, all belonging to my enemy, Gorgett! Ah, the horror of it what horror!" Farwell wrung his hands and sat, gulping as if he were sick, without speaking for several moments. "What terms did the man he sent offer from Gorgett?" I asked. "No terms!
"There was once, if my memory serves me rightly, an Apostle of the name of Peter who chose to consider some of the creatures made by his own Maker in the light of vulgarians; and a sheetful of specimens descended on Peter's head to warn him against the folly of finding any of God's creations common or unclean.

That part of the Irish aristocracy, who, immediately upon the first incursions of the vulgarians, had fled in despair to their fastnesses in the country, hearing of the improvements which had gradually taken place in society, and assured of the final expulsion of the barbarians, ventured from their retreats, and returned to their posts in town.
Mr. Blinker, of O. Henry's "Brick Dust Row," could not then have seen his vision and found his light. For there was no mass of vulgarians wallowing in gross joys to be recognized as his brothers seeking the ideal.
They make a strike in the mines and set up ridiculous establishments regardless of expense. You see them riding in their carriages with two men in the box red-handed, grizzled old vulgarians who've roughed it in the mountains for twenty years with a pack-mule and a ham and a pick-axe with their jug of whiskey and their frowsy red-faced wives decked out in impossible finery.
"Did not you, my love? that is very extraordinary: many people, I believe, call it wi*nd." "Vulgarians, perhaps!" "Vulgarians! No, indeed, my dear; very polite, well-informed people." Griselda, with a look of unutterable contempt, reiterated the word polite. "Yes, my dear, polite," persisted Mr.
That 's what I call it now the invasion of the vulgarians! What are poor we to do?" Rowland had begun to murmur some remedial proposition, when he was interrupted by the voice of Miss Light calling across the room, "Mamma!" "My own love?" "This gentleman wishes to model my bust. Please speak to him." The Cavaliere gave a little chuckle. "Already?" he cried.
