~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,036   ~   ~   ~

"What an ass I am!"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,932   ~   ~   ~

Hamil whispered: "Such a chance to make love to you!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,206   ~   ~   ~

"Hamil, do you know, I've always liked you a damn sight better than you've liked me."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,259   ~   ~   ~

"I'm ass enough to be much obliged," he said.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,539   ~   ~   ~

"Making love to her."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,551   ~   ~   ~

"Yes, but I was ass enough to think _you_ cared for _me_."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,035   ~   ~   ~

What an infernal ass I am!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,634   ~   ~   ~

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,637   ~   ~   ~

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,913   ~   ~   ~

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,941   ~   ~   ~

"I've been thinking," she remarked, "that this question of making love to me should be seriously discussed."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,952   ~   ~   ~

"Shiela, can't you ever get over being ashamed when I make love to you?"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,318   ~   ~   ~

"Well, Hamil--damn it all!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,389   ~   ~   ~

And he makes damn few friends among men--" The door opened and Malcourt entered slowly, almost noiselessly.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,483   ~   ~   ~

"That damn Louis," he confided to Hamil over their after-dinner cigars, "has kept me guessing ever since he took command here.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 5,611   ~   ~   ~

That damn Louis!...

~   ~   ~   Sentence 6,014   ~   ~   ~

"Louis!" panted Portlaw, "they say Hamil is dying--" "Damn you," whispered Malcourt fiercely, "will you shut your cursed mouth!"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 6,129   ~   ~   ~

~   ~   ~   Sentence 7,430   ~   ~   ~

"Real life," said Portlaw, spearing a fish-ball, "is damn monotonous.
