| It was the close of the summer day, and he knew Lucie to be out with Miss pross. |
|
| However, father and daughter did at last appear, and Miss pross was ready at the street door to receive them. |
|
| But, Miss pross suddenly became afflicted with a twitching in the head and body, and retired into the house. |
|
| No sooner did he face her, than Miss pross uttered a scream, and clapped her hands. |
|
| The savage Frenchwoman tried to tear her away, but Miss pross seized her around the waist, and held her back. |
|
| Within a few minutes, Miss pross stood whispering at his side. |
|
| They were only three at table, and Miss pross made the third. |
|
| In the arrangements of the little household, Miss Pross took charge of the lower regions, and always acquitted herself marvellously. |
|
| Having purchased a few small articles of grocery, and a measure of oil for the lamp, Miss Pross bethought herself of the wine they wanted. |
|
| Yet, a doubt lurks in my mind, Miss Pross, whether it is good for Doctor Manette to have that suppression always shut up within him. |
|
| Cruncher, and finding him of her opinion, Miss Pross resorted to the Good Republican Brutus of Antiquity, attended by her cavalier. |
|
| Lorry went into his room with a chopper, saw, chisel, and hammer, attended by Miss Pross carrying a light. |
|
| Miss Pross, submitting herself to his judgment, the scheme was worked out with care. |
|
| Possibly at home, but of a certainty impossible for handmaid to anticipate intentions of Miss Pross, as to admission or denial of the fact. |
|
| He said not a word, however, and Miss Pross, exploring the depths of her reticule through her tears with great difficulty paid for her wine. |
|
| Cruncher, in an access of loyalty, growlingly repeated the words after Miss Pross, Re somebody at church. |
|
| Seeing in this arrangement the hope of rendering real service in that pressing emergency, Miss Pross hailed it with joy. |
|
| Lorry and Miss Pross, while engaged in the commission of their deed and in the removal of its traces, almost felt, and almost looked, like accomplices in a horrible crime. |
|
| Lo, Miss Pross, in harness of string, awakening the echoes, as an unruly charger, whip-corrected, snorting and pawing the earth under the plane-tree in the garden! |
|
| In conjunction with Miss Pross, he took immediate steps towards the latter precaution, by giving out that the Doctor was not well, and required a few days of complete rest. |
