Sharp had too much knowledge of the world not to perceive the little mistake he had made, and after begging the young lady, with a ludicrous deprecation of her mercy, not to betray him, he changed the conversation with the tact of a man who saw that the discourse could not be continued without assuming a confidential character that Eve was indisposed to permit.
"And ours?" said Mr Wentworth, who had not as yet approached that subject. Lucy knew that this event must be far off, and was not agitated about it as yet; on the contrary, she met his look sympathetically and with deprecation after the first natural blush, and soothed him in her feminine way, patting softly with her pretty hand the sleeve of his coat. "Nobody knows," said Lucy.
"Then I wish to know nothing," said the doctor, with an air of humble deprecation, "for I should have the appearance of accepting a kind of reward; whilst I am paid a thousand times over, by the pleasure I feel in serving you." "Listen," said Adrienne, without attending to the delicate scruples of Dr.
It was just the queerness of the whole thing." Reverdy went over the facts again, beginning with deprecation for the Squire but gathering respect for them in the interest they seemed to have for Mrs. Braile. She listened silently, and then she asked, "And what became of him?" "Well, that's where you got me, Mrs. Braile. Don't anybody know what become of him.
He's got pictures of you in various poses taken from the fracas-buff magazines, and files away all articles in which your name appears." "Zen!" Nadine laughed in deprecation. "That's just the beginning. After a while he starts writing you fan letters, wanting autographed portraits, wanting a souvenir sometimes nothing more exciting than a button off your uniform.
Simpson was forced into the deprecation that perhaps one would hardly call her a joyous Christian. But for the Zenana Light Society this impression of Miss Filbert might have deepened. The committee of that body was almost entirely composed of Mrs. Simpson's friends, and naturally came to learn much about her guest.
Ketch rubbed his eyes, and stared, and rubbed again. The bishop smiled. "I told you, Ketch, I thought you must be mistaken, in supposing you brought the proper keys out." Ketch burst into a wail of anger and deprecation. He had took out the right keys, and Jenkins could bear him out in the assertion.
Randolph, lifting her hand with her driest deprecation and her most desiccating smile, "I'm not passing judgment or criticism. I am of a foreign race, and consequently do not understand the freedom of American young ladies, and their familiarity with the opposite sex.
All this, however, is beside the present argument. But apart from all deprecation, and aside from all question as to the indispensability of some such check on headlong innovation, the leisure class, in the nature of things, consistently acts to retard that adjustment to the environment which is called social advance or development.
I was about to reply in terms of deprecation, when a confusion of sound drifted in from the street, of arriving cabs and expostulating voices. The Miss Binghams looked at each other in consternation and said with one accord, "It was the Fulda!" "Was it?" inquired poppa. "Do you refer to the German Lloyd steamship of that name?" "We do," said Miss Nancy.
