personating

How- ever, the man personating the inspector judged it ex- pedient to say roughly: "'She shall go soon enough, together with the rest of you.'

With a slight shrug of her lovely shoulders she made a gesture with her hands personating the casting of something over the craft's side.

It must be a personating of himself; a satire against the softness of prosperity, with a discovery of the infinite flatteries that follow youth and opulency.

Once arrived at this point, no trick is too gross; absurdities are referred to 'low spirits', falsehoods to 'personating spirits', and the one, terribly apparent spirit-Father of Lies-has it all his own way.
