But the loss of her mother was to Hetty a trivial one, in comparison with the loss of her father. |
|
The more Hetty thought over her plan, the simpler and more feasible it appeared. |
|
Smitten to the heart by a sudden and overwhelming remorse, Hetty was speechless. |
|
They rode on past a stockyard, and into a rutted street of bare frame houses, and Hetty was glad they scarcely met anybody. |
|
Hetty would have liked to be omniscient that she might procure for him all he could desire. |
|
Hetty was dishing out fragrant, warmed-over stew into three lunch dishes on the table. |
|
Hetty was then received in the canoe, which was shoved outside of the palisadoes. |
|
The voice of eldress Abby pursued Hetty in her flight like the voice in a dream. |
|
Hetty laughed, but there was a thrill in her voice as she turned to Miss Schuyler. |
|
It was just time for the lamp in the lighthouse to be lit, and Hetty was watching for it. |
|
If Hetty could have been transported to the spot, how would her heart have ached! |
|
I'd be glad now if you'd go into the garden and tell Hetty to send totty in. |
|
Would you really take Jim and Sally home to your house, to live with you, Hetty? |
|
Hetty struggled once more to free herself, but the arms were like arms of oak. |
|
Poyser stood Hetty, and Adam was again beguiled from calculations and contrivances into dreams and hopes. |
|
My sister Hetty has a beautiful one, all lace and needlework. |
|
It will indeed, Hetty, and all for fourpence a day, say you? |
|
The boys have cut his forehead, and Hetty wanted to bring him some balsam. |
|
Before Hetty had finished her sentence, her face was crimson. |
|
This is not the first time you've met Hetty Sorrel in this grove, and this is not the first time you've kissed her. |
|
|
If Irwine had said nothing, I shouldn't have thought half so much of Hetty as of Meg's lameness. |
|
Then, Hetty sat down and drew Miss Schuyler down beside her. |
|
But Doctor Eben was in no danger of disturbing Hetty in this way. |
|
When this act of self-devotion was performed, Hetty did not retire. |
|
Get me the matches down, Hetty, for I must have the rushlight burning i' my room. |
|
Hetty Parlow's maiden name had been Brownon, and in Blackburg that meant more than one would think. |
|
As he thought of Hetty Merton, he began to wonder if the portrait in the locked room had changed. |
|
Hetty knitted her brows, and looked at him in her turn, scrutinizingly. |
|
Moreover, Hetty had kept through all these years her superb health. |
|
He came more and more to feel that Raby was a legacy left by Hetty to him. |
|
Her uncle's answers, however, had had another effect on Hetty besides that of disappointing her and making her cry. |
|
And it was true that Hetty listened with an interest which brought a new light into her eyes and a half-smile upon her lips. |
|
Adam paused and looked at Hetty, who was plucking the leaves from the filbert-trees and tearing them up in her hand. |
|
Poyser recurred to his pipe and his silence, looking at Hetty to see if she did not give some sign of having renounced her ill-advised wish. |
|
Dinah had never seen Hetty affected in this way before, and, with her usual benignant hopefulness, she trusted it was the stirring of a divine impulse. |
|
Well, Hetty, if I am to speak candidly, I must say that I have known Sidney Trefusis for a long time, and he is the easiest person to get on with I ever met. |
|
There really would have been no harm in being kind to the little thing, and it was worth dancing with a dozen ballroom belles only to look at Hetty for half an hour. |
