"You can continue your attentions to my wife later on,—at your peril.","Well," said the young man, "where is your piskun—where do you kill buffalo?"，Below is the lake, bathed in moonshine. A gentle wind has arisen, and little wavelets silver-tinged are rolling inward, breaking themselves with tender sobs upon the shore.，Life and its ills,，To the surprise of everybody, Geoffrey takes no open notice of his mother's speech.
