Because if you had stayed on here last autumn we might have been induced to marry each other, and then what would have become of poor Jack?",“I’d like that,” he said one day as the trio were loafing away the afternoon in the shade of Holman’s bunkhouse, “and I think I’ll drift up that way and tackle it.”，"Phew!

The evening came, and the Princess said to Fretillon, "Go to the best kitchen in the town and bring me a joint of good roast meat."
