"Your aunt would understand it. I'm only beginning to pay my debt to her, and it's going to take a mighty long while, too.",“Hurry up, Moses,” she called, as soon as her joy had subsided, “git those pipes finished an’ go arfter yor chores.”,"From whom?" demands Mona, lazily, seeing the writing is unknown to her.，Oh, if by this one act of self-sacrifice she could restore the Towers with all its beauty and richness to Nicholas, and—and his mother,—how good a thing it would be! But will Geoffrey ever forgive her? Ah, sure when she explains the matter to him, and tells him how and why she did it, and how her heart bled in the doing of it, he will put his arms round her and pardon her sin.

You know, don’t you, that I really would like to be a lawyer if I only could? But I know I’ve just got to try this engineering.
