The soldier's tone was so offensive that Maurice felt the angry blood mount to his forehead. Fortunately, a warning glance from the abbe made him restrain his wrath.
His companion shot a quick glance at him, and an expression of anxiety passed over his face as he replied, with a well-feigned air of indifference, "You are altogether too sharp, Major. I must be on my guard while you are in the house. Any new arrivals? I thought I heard a carriage drive up not long ago." "It was General Snowdon and his charming wife.
You have got intrigues on the brain, my good de Marmont." And with well-feigned indifference, he settled himself more cosily into the dark corner of the carriage. De Marmont laughed.

"I would he knew his happiness." "Not for worlds," says Mrs. Talbot, with well-feigned alarm. "You would not even hint to him such a thing as as " She stops, confused.
