You see how the sense of its responsibilities has aged him already, positively, two great wrinkles under his eyes. Well, after all, I admire him and respect his tutor: a soil naturally very thin, I suspect, has been most carefully cultivated; and Castleton, with Trevanion's help, will be the first man in the peerage, prime minister some day, I dare say.
She said she had heard of "home-sickness." "Well, that's what ailed Mrs. Wrandall," he said. "Miss Castleton is the CURE." Booth came the next morning....Even as she lay passive in his arms, Hetty denied him. Her arms were around his neck as she miserably whispered that she could not, would not be his wife, notwithstanding her love for him and his readiness to accept her as she was.

Too bad my personal magnetism isn't being diffused for a more likely candidate." "Looks curious," said Jimmy, "the fight Boggs is putting up.

The look in her eyes betrayed unmistakable surprise and yes, he was quite sure of it dismay when Sara accepted the invitation to dine.
