Sergeant Toffy's lady felt no particular gratitude when he tilted a glass of port wine over her yellow satin, and laughed at the disaster; nor was she better pleased, although old Osborne was highly delighted, when Georgie "whopped" her third boy, a young gentleman a year older than Georgie, and by chance home for the holidays.
I say, you brutes," he continued, raising his voice, "next time you bully Eden, I'll tell Somers as sure as fate." "Tell away then," jeered Harpour; "better go and tell him before your shoes wear out." "Ah, you'll change your tone, Master Harpour, when you've been well whopped," answered Henderson.
Pickwick; 'but if we stand talking here, we shall lose our places. 'Wot, ain't nothin' to be done in consequence, sir? exclaimed Sam, perfectly aghast at the coolness with which Mr. Pickwick prepared to ensconce himself inside. 'Done! said Mr. Pickwick. 'What should be done? 'Ain't nobody to be whopped for takin' this here liberty, sir? said Mr.
The morning's battle, had not gone all his way, although he said to Janice with his usual impish grin when she commented upon his battered appearance: "You'd orter see the other feller!

But the chances of war were unfavourable this time, and the little baker whopped Georgy, who came home with a rueful black eye and all his fine shirt frill dabbled with the claret drawn from his own little nose. He told his grandfather that he had been in combat with a giant, and frightened his poor mother at Brompton with long, and by no means authentic, accounts of the battle.
I would rather give half a crown to an impertinent little boy who had just whopped another boy bigger than himself than give a halfpenny tract to a sickly child in its mother's arms: that's original sin in me, I suppose. But all that squalid sort of work you were in only made the jewel shine the more.
"There's England's Queen, and England's Prince, and Hanover's King, and the old Swordbelt that whopped Bony; and he is better worth seem' than any man now livin' on the face of the univarsal airth, let t'other one be where he will, that's a fact.
