We won't call it a gift; we will call it an acknowledgement for the extra pains you have put into teaching my son. Tut, man! said he, as I protested. 'Harry has told us all about that. I assure you the youngster came near to wearying us, last holiday, with praise of you." "And so he did," Plinny here interrupted. "That is to say, sir I I mean we were only too glad to listen to him."
And, for this for this the love that has grown up with our lives must be crushed down and hidden our life is wearing out in wearying self-watching!
When you return and begin to think it over you will probably see so many practical difficulties in the way that you will not attempt it. You must have patience. All these things will come to your race in time." "I fear," continued Thorwald, "that I am wearying you with this long talk." We assured him we were enjoying it too much to think of being tired, and hoped he would not stop.
He had just reacquired influence over her, during a fit of boredom which had come on with the close of a wearying winter, when the usual dissipations, dinners, balls, and first-night performances were beginning to pall on her with their dreary monotony.
As the spring grew warmer, my mother rallied wonderfully, and we began to dare to hope. At last it was decided to move her down to Norwood; she was wearying for change, and it was thought that the purer air of the country might aid the system to recover tone and strength.
Sidney will take a word and toss it to and fro in a page till its meaning is sucked dry and more than sucked dry. On page after page the same trick is employed, often in some new and charming way, but with the inevitable effect of wearying the reader, who tries to do the unwisest of all things with a book of this kind to read on. This trick of bandying words is, of course, common in Shakespeare.
Oh, you mean my 'cello the Infant of Prague." Dick, meanwhile, had bitten his tongue severely. "Yes, the jolly old Infant of Prague, of course. Is it 'he, 'she, or 'it'? I forget."

And ought I not to have been happy when all who were with me were happy?

I'll try and not think about it any more." "Try, that's a dear, good girl," murmured Mrs. Gaston, as she kissed her child again, and then turned away to resume once more her wearying task. Unrolling one of the coarse jackets she had brought home, she found that it was of heavy beaver cloth, and had to be sewed with strong thread.
I cannot shake my guilt from me even for a day; and now society coldly cancels all my claims to its attentions. If I could believe her dead; if I but knew this girl was not the object of all my heart's unrest, then the wearying doubt would be buried, and my heart might find peace in some remote corner of the earth. Well, well-perhaps I am wasting all this torture on an unworthy object.
