The Prince was equally disturbed at the thought. "It is an unhappy fancy she has taken into her head," he said.

There was a slight slackening in the rush through the air, but so quickly was the whole journey over that Bob’s first impression was the one that he slipped off the bucket with when it touched ground at the foot of the west tower.，"Oh shucks!
