Sighing, ah, fordone their mirth died down.
Miss Kennedy lipped her cup again, raised, drank a sip and giggle-giggled.
Miss Douce, bending again over the teatray, ruffled again her nose and rolled droll fattened eyes.
Again Kennygiggles, stooping her fair pinnacles of hair, stooping, her tortoise napecomb showed, spluttered out of her mouth her tea, choking in tea and laughter, coughing with choking, crying: -- O greasy eyes! Imagine being married to a man like that, she cried.
With his bit of beard! Douce gave full vent to a splendid yell, a full yell of full woman, delight, joy, indignation.
Married to the greasy nose! she yelled.
Shrill, with deep laughter, after bronze in gold, they urged each other to peal after peal, ringing in changes, bronzegold goldbronze, shrilldeep, to laughter after laughter: And then laughed more.
Greasy I knows.
Exhausted, breathless their shaken heads they laid, braided and pinnacled by glossycombed, against the counterledge.
