The two young men felt as shy of the interview with their master under such unusual relations of guest and host, as a girl does of her first party. Each rather drew back from the decided step of knocking at the door; but with a rebuffing shake at his own folly, Philip was the one to give a loud single rap.
"I am, nevertheless, flattered by the interest you take in my affairs." "You need not be, Mr. Douglas," said Mrs. Fairfax, earnestly, fearing that he would presently succeed in rebuffing her. "I think you are much better off than you deserve. You may despise your reputation as much as you like: that only affects yourself.
Henrietta now handed a cup to the donor of these gifts, which he accepted meekly and carried on tiptoe back to his place on the edge of the bed. Brother Mason drank his coffee with a great deal of unnecessary noise, while Henrietta gathered up the dishes, after again rebuffing me almost rudely for presuming to offer my services.
I thanked the procurator for his resolution and success in rebuffing would-be patrons eager to pamper me. Also, all winter, I dreaded that he would he less lucky or less adamantine when spring came. Thus passed my fourth winter since my disaster.
Yet though he fled his mind still revolved muddily about a central desire while he fled from her he still planned to pursue her, and to his lust of possession was added a desire for revenge. She should pay for the suffering she had inflicted upon him. She should pay for rebuffing him, but for some reason which he did not try to explain to himself he would crawl away and hide.
In fact, Mrs. Firkin had that natural jealousy which is one of the main principles of every honest woman. After rebuffing Sir Huddleston Fuddleston, Miss Crawley ordered that Rawdon Crawley should lead her in to dinner every day, and that Becky should follow with her cushion or else she would have Becky's arm and Rawdon with the pillow. "We must sit together," she said.
She was afraid to have Jim take her to her mother's address lest her woeful luck should bring Strathdene and Jim together at the door. That was her excellent reason for rebuffing her husband's courtesy and setting out alone. Her mother was only too willing to abet Kedzie's forlorn hope. It was the forlornness of Kedzie that saved her.
They raised him from the ground, and as soon as he was on his feet he went tottering off, rebuffing all attempts at assistance. When the party rounded the corner they were fairly blinded by the pelting of the snow. It burned their faces like fire. The cowboy carried Johnnie through the drift to the door. As they entered some cards again rose from the floor and beat against the wall.
I stared at the fine slanting script of the address: Please deliver to Frank R. Beeson, Esqr., At the Queen Hotel. Arrived from Albany, N. Y. I nodded; rebuffing his attentive eyes I stuffed the envelope into my pantaloons pocket. "Good-bye, sir." "Good luck. When you come back remember the Queen."
"The Visitor is giving you the rush of your young life, and we're all on. Take a handful of my beauties." "You mean Mr. Canning? My dear Chas, if he only were!" There was no rebuffing the Cooneys. They began their little third-degree system. "He called on you last Thursday afternoon, didn't he, Cally?" said Looloo, laughing, with a little face for her daring. "One call, my dear child!"
