"There, mesdames, there is the proof that more breaking doesn't signify in this matter of life and death, Tenez, madame " and with a charming gesture he laid his richly-veined, strong old hand on my arm a hand that ended in beautiful fingers, each with its rim of moon-shaped dirt; "tenez figure to yourself, madame, that I myself have been here twenty years, and I came for two!
Believe you that a man of my blood will yield a foot to any Englishman? Do you know the story of my race? do you know that since my childhood I have vowed hatred to that nation? Tenez, madame, this M. Jones who frequents your salon, it was but respect for you that has enabled me to keep my patience with this stupid islander.
But they got to Soho Square at last; and through the glass door, in among the stalls that fairy land in general to Kate; but now she was too much frightened and bewildered to do more than hurry along the passages, staring so wildly for her albums, that Josephine touched her, and said, "Tenez, Miladi, they will think you farouche. Ah! see the beautiful wreaths!"
"Tenez, mademoiselle," said the market woman, "there is a little ounce of butter here that you may have!" The morning passed and on drifted the day, and all was finished, all was done, and love gone, too. And with love gone the less divine but wider world lay open. In the "Silver Lion" the patient girl behind the counter shook her head. "There is no letter for you."
Laura may bring the cousin up to tea with her and she wants him to meet you." "Very good of her. Why?" "Oh, because he was in the Army too and all through the war. He went out with the first hundred thousand. He's much older than you are the same age as Laura. Oh, wait a minute!" exclaimed Isabel in the tone in which a Frenchwoman says Tenez. I forgot. She thinks you must have met him, Val."
Monsieur Baptiste took off his hat, blushing at the hint Colonel Esmond ventured to give him, and said: "Tenez, elle est jolie, la petite mere.

And he started back, and pushed forward, as Beatrix was descending the stair.
"Pauvre petite! tenez," continued mademoiselle, running up to her with salts, apprehensive that she was going into fits. "I am not ill, thank you," said Lady Augusta, taking the smelling bottle. "But don't tell me dat," said mademoiselle: "I saw you walking out of de window wid dat man, and I know dis is some new demele wid him. Come, point de secret, mon enfant.
"Toi, Antoine," shouted he, "lache la grande voile!" meaning him to "slacken off the mainsheets," whereupon the lugger was brought alongside the wreck of the cutter. Our friend Antoine, without wasting a moment, at once stepped on board, exclaiming, "Tenez bon dessus Hold on."
Quand les autres ont acheué de manger, despechez vous aussi, & ne tenez pas les bras sur la table, mais posez les mains seulement sur le bout. When the rest have finished eating, you should do the same quickly; do not hold your arms on the table, but only place your hands on the edge of it. 104th.
"I knew too well how it would be. From the instant he came on the ground the old general never took his eye off his man. What an eye it was! Cold and gray and leaden; half shut, like that of some wild animal, with a pupil that contracted visibly while I watched it. I knew my friend had no chance. I did all I could.

They were to fire when I dropped my hat. I dropped it with a flourish. Alas! all was of no use. The general shot him right through the heart. I knew he would; and the bullet cut the stalk of the rose in two, smashed the lower part of the miniature, leaving only the face untouched, and poor Charlie Horsingham never spoke again.
