Your cheeks are peaches under cream, your eyes are blue forget-me-nots, and your mouth a red blossom. Come on before I lose my head looking at you."

Tom laughed and behaved himself.,“Go and bring him now, so you can renovate his appearance before supper,” directed the mother.,"God forbid, sir!",“Yes, but I just forgot it for a minute or two, Mother.”，That night, after Miss Jinny's trunk had finally been disposed of, and all the gossip of Rockham village and outskirts had been thoroughly aired, and Miss Jinny, tired from her strenuous day, had gone thankfully to bed, Patricia and Elinor were talking over the day's happenings as they brushed their hair in the seclusion of their own room.，"Nerves!" she cried indignantly, sitting bolt upright.
