And no wonder, too:" with a loud and a hearty sigh.，"How does the lady seem?" said Mr Lawrence.，He strayed into the beech grove sighing, striving to realize all that had suddenly happened to him. Never in all his dreams had he imagined such a face could belong to mortal girl. He must see her again—yes, he must see her soon again—perhaps speak with her. The very thought of it made him dizzy.，“But the Lord hed his eye on Joner an’ put an orful wind on the sea.”“Here is a Christmas present for you,” said John. “It is to hang on the wall so you can see it, Jeremias.
