My men are doing all in their power to capture the man who has so unfortunately escaped from our clutches, and I shall not allow you or any one else to dictate the manner in which we are to proceed." She uttered these words cuttingly, and, at their conclusion, arose to leave the room. Bolaroz heard her through in surprise and with conflicting emotions.
Her black eyelashes were long, and under their protecting shadow she swept a glance at the card above the young man's plate. It was inscribed, "Lord Hexam." She saw her opportunity and asked, ingenuously: "How can you be a member of the House of Commons?" He looked up from his fish and replied, somewhat cuttingly, "By contesting a borough and getting elected."
"Was it necessary to affect callow inexperience and such a happy-go-lucky, imbecile philosophy?" she demanded cuttingly. "Hum!" admitted Philip humbly. "I'm a salamander." "And you said you were waiting to be rescued!" she accused indignantly. Philip sighed. "Well, in a sense I was. I saw you coming through the trees and there are times when one must talk."
"Do you mock at me, you 'three letter man'?" retorted Agias in grim despair, referring cuttingly to FVR branded on Alfidius's forehead. Thief. Branding was a common punishment for slaves. "So you sing, my pretty bird," laughed the executioner. "I think you will croak sorrowfully enough before long.
Don't preach woe, punishment, and all mournfulness to the people all the time. Where you find sin, go ahead and denounce it mercilessly; but do it crisply, cuttingly, not dully and innocuously.

They waxed loud, then cuttingly polite, then slaughteringly sarcastic and, at last, exceeding wroth. "I tell you, sir, that I have written a volume on the subject." "Had you no friend near you," said Dr Thompson, "at that most unfortunate time?" "I tell you, sir, I will never argue with anyone on the subject, unless he have read my Latin treatise `De Natura Pestium et Pestilentiarum."
Wyvis Brand's brow relaxed a little. "I don't understand your views of friendship: it seems to mean a right to intermeddle with all the affairs of your acquaintances," he said, cuttingly; "but since you are so good as to ask my intentions " "If you talk like that, I'll never speak to you again!" cried Janetta, who was not remarkable for her meekness. Wyvis actually smiled.
Not only have you been most outrageously insulting to Mr Hawden when I sent him with you, but you also deliberately and wilfully disobeyed me." Uncle Julius listened attentively, and Hawden looked at me with such a leer of triumph that my fingers tingled to smack his cars. Turning to my grandmother, I said distinctly and cuttingly: "Grannie, I did not intentionally disobey you.
