"Oh, how pretty it is!" exclaimed the Princess. "How do you do it? Give it to me, that I may see if I can do it as well."

Bim! Boom! How the great bells chimed!.

“It’s all right then,” he muttered and stood up to reassure the crowd. “Not a bit—only wish I’d thought of it. Was the old man pleased?” Little was said as they took Bob and hoisted him into the saddle of one of their horses. Harper got up behind him and handled the reins on either side of his body. He turned the horse’s head away from the trail into the low brush that here covered the ground. The other man followed. “At last! I thought you’d never show up.”.
