The service over, the squire and his wife came out first and were standing in the path exchanging greetings with their friends; then as the others came out with Martha in the midst of the crowd the lady turned and fixed her eyes on her, and suddenly stepping out from the group she stopped Martha and said, "Who are you? I don't remember your face." "No, ma'am," said Martha, blushing and curtsying.
He did not speak, but presently that strange, subtle sixth sense which warns us that we are not alone, though our eyes see not nor our ears hear, caused her to turn. With a little cry she arose, and then, curtsying low after the manner of the court, said: "What would My Lord Richard, Prince of England, of his poor subject?"
"Yes, take them over, with my compliments; and say I hope Miss Mary Blake has caught no cold." "You were speaking about a habit and hat, sir?" said Mrs. Magra, curtsying as she entered. "Yes, Mrs. Magra; I want your advice. Oh, tell Barnes I really cannot be bored about those eternal turnips every day of my life. And, Mike, I wish you'd make them look over the four-horse harness.
Ladbrook was standing in skull-cap and front, with her turban in her hand, curtsying and smiling blandly and saying, "After you, ma'am," to another lady in similar circumstances, who had politely offered the precedence at the looking-glass.
She talked all sorts of nonsense to me, but can put on dignity when she chooses." This writer also relates that the royal little lady loved to shock her attendants by running to fetch for herself articles she required her hat, a book, or a chair and that one summer, when she stayed at a country-house, she would even run to open the gate to visitors, curtsying to them like a country lassie.
The next day both the Tabbies were curtsying in the hall when we started out. We were going on a coach to Richmond with Julia and her husband, and another American girl, and then Julia's husband was going to row us up the Thames to Hampton Court for tea, and they were all going to dine with us at Scott's when we got home. It was a lovely day.
"Stay!" exclaimed the stranger, as, smiling with ineffable sweetness, and deeply curtsying, she drew backwards towards the window: "Stay; how can those part whom destiny hath joined; how be divided whom their fates make one? Stay, lady, and let love, young love, plead his own cause.
This, then, is what happened at a golden fiesta during the week of races: "Sweet Lady, are all my importunities to be in vain?" "I must confess that I can not bring my mind to a decision, Mr. Saul," answered Mistress Patty Laughton, blushing and curtsying prettily. "It is surely not for your lack of worldly goods that you hesitate," persisted Slick-heels Saul.
I have seen birds courting in the stately figures of the minuet, crossing over and back, bowing and curtsying, in a dignified manner. Listen to the meadow lark as he pours out his heart in a love song to his mate. As near as I can understand him he is saying, "Spring is here, my dear, my dear," and in a lower tone, "Let's build a nest."
Order you her to go quite respectable." Curtsying before Mrs. Harries, Martha said: "I am Tim Dafis' wife." "Oh, really. The person that is in charge of that funny little Welsh chapel." Mrs. Harries sat at a table. "Give me your girl's name, age, and names of previous employers for references."
