The Service is an enthusiasm of mine, you know.”,"That kid is a born actress," said David in her ear. "Look at her, Miss Pat. Isn't she the picture of an eminent authoress at a club reception?","Not ten, only eight! He went away when I was seventeen," I answered with dignity, wishing I dared be snappy at him: though I never am.,"Ho, the schooner ahoy! where are you from?","Mrs Bigg, ma'am! I never heard of her."，"Yes, I saw all was right in the house at twelve o' clock, and I slept on in my chair from that hour until three."，"As your adopted father, I demand an answer."，He was pleased with her sympathy; but being a boy, he didn’t like to show it. “I’ll tell you,” he said, eagerly, and without further acknowledgment of her kindness, “ask Mr. Brown to give you my books.

"They tell me you are going to take your first plunge this afternoon. I'll be glad to show you about if you need any chaperoning.",“See that thundering big one away over there? I’m going to get her,” said Eric, pointing to a venerable looking crab that had been lying for a long time squeezed in between two rocks. The boys dangled the string with the stone on it temptingly near the big crab. Crabs usually get excited over a stone swinging above them that way.
