"That's all right, too.
She really came in a phaeton, drawn by a fat gray pony, but somehow Aunt Cynthia always gave you the impression of a full rigged ship coming gallantly on before a favorable wind. That was a Jonah day for us all through. Everything had gone wrong.
She heard them silently, with a pale face like some injured queen's; and then, bowing to them their dismissal, motioned Pinckney into the phaeton, which, though much broken, was still standing, and, getting in herself, drove slowly home. "She might have killed herself," thought Pinckney, but he held his peace, as if it were the most natural course of action in the world.
"Not loud, did I? Come, Eames, did I snore loud?" "Well, my lord, you did snore rather loud two or three times." "Did I?" said the earl, in a voice of great disappointment.

The small phaeton had been already ordered, and the two young men started back to Guestwick together, a servant from the house riding the doctor's horse behind them.
The captain understood my raillery very well, and merrily replied that he did not observe my stomach so good, although I had fasted all day; and, continuing in his mirth, protested he would have gladly given a hundred pounds to have seen my closet in the eagle's bill, and afterwards in its fall from so great a height into the sea; which would certainly have been a most astonishing object, worthy to have the description of it transmitted to future ages: and the comparison of Phaeton was so obvious, that he could not forbear applying it, although I did not much admire the conceit.

'Mr. May! Confound his impudence! was the by no means doubtful utterance of Miss Hazel's guardian. Hazel bit her lips and sat demurely waiting further developments.
Lucy came to the table, and, standing close behind David so close that he felt her pure cool breath mingle with his hair, said to her uncle: "Mr. Talboys proposes to me to ride the first stage to-morrow; if I do, you must be of the party." "Oh, must I? Well, I'll roll after you in my phaeton." At this moment Eve could bear no longer the anguish on David's beloved face. It made her hysterical.
"I promise to drive out with you whenever you please, without getting out of the carriage, but I know you would not care for that. No, your affection was only a temporary caprice."
