"If she were to leave off her rococo toilettes, and take to Elise or Worth like other people, and give up posing, and try to behave like a rational being, she might almost be called handsome.",A scream from “the shack” stopped further quotations.

I shall speak of it morning, noon, and night, until out of sheer vexation of spirit they will come in a body and entreat you to remove me. Ah!" regretfully, "if only I had a fortune now, how sweet it would be! I never missed it before. We are really very unfortunate."，"I say, this is fine!" declared David, as he looked about him in the palm-shaded, pink and gold dining-room. "Beats our refectory at the Prep, doesn't it, Tommy old boy?"，Lucy was of opinion that the ship must prove the Minorca.

Moses was leaning against a fence and laughing till it seemed as though his eyes must remain indefinitely imbedded in their sockets.,“You keep still, Betsey! I’m going to watch!” he exclaimed, as if some one had spoken.,"Do you really?" asks Mona, earnestly.,Suddenly, all heads were raised and a sigh of satisfaction escaped Mrs. Wopp’s lips.,"Villeneuve's force was greater, sir," said the Admiral.
