He kissed the lace ruffle on my sleeve while I reproved him severely and settled down to enjoy him. But I didn't have such a good time as I generally do with him. He was too full of another woman, and even a first cousin can be an exasperation in that condition.,"What a darling you are!" says Rodney, in a low tone; and then something else follows, that, had she seen it, would have caused the weatherbeaten old person at the fire another thrill of tender recollection.,"It may have been an afterthought.",Mrs. Wopp was much too energetically engaged to enter into fuller argument.

"But more than ever I want you now; more than ever I need you. Erie," he said earnestly, "are you willing to marry me right away—next week?","Oh, I have my work to do; and besides, I often prefer standing.",Carthy, having caught Mona's arms from behind just a little above the elbow, holds her as in a vice.

"Now say a short prayer," says Ryan, levelling his gun; "for yer last hour has come.",They were not allowed to sail with real sails, but with an umbrella—pooh! nobody could object to that, surely. He would hold the umbrella and Tellef would steer.,“I’ll bet a road could be made from the edge of the canyon to the top of the cliff,” asserted Bob confidently, “and what work had to be done here at the river bed could be managed by derricks and cranes from that spot. Don’t you think so?”,“Yes, there’s a trail but there’s nothing much down there anyway.” This from Jerry in an unenthusiastic tone.,"Night has always the effect of making bad look worse," says Doatie with a sad attempt at cheerfulness.
