"It's quite proper to wear your hat at "But my mother may not consent," said Isabella, a trifle nervously.,At last, as she grows weary for wishing for it,—,"Elinor didn't wait for us," she began gayly, "and I'm not——","Come on," said Morning Star, "let us go and kill those birds.","We are pursuing the Minorca," answered Captain Acton.，"Then you are out of your mind," says Rodney.，"Don't you think it's the house, too?" she asked critically. "Some houses seem to be so alive and to belong to some people. Greycroft just fitted Aunt Louise, and when she left, it was lonesome till it found someone who liked the same things she did, and then it opened its eyes and waked up again. I don't believe it would be itself with Mrs. Hand in it, or even with the Halls, though they are so sweet and fine-mannered."，with"Then let her see the police, sir, although I don't agree with you. She is not the woman to put a rope round her own neck--black as it is."

“If we can only get behind the Tongue,” said Tellef.,“I like it very much just as it is,” replied Uncle Isaac.,“That’s a string bass.”,"Why, seems she was up here lookin' fer somethin' a little while ago. She saw your pants layin' there an' she thought maybe they needed patchin', so she took 'em down with her.",Mrs. Bennett smiled at her mistake and went in, while Billy took up his mower. The girls looked at one another in the mute scrutiny children bestow on newcomers, May Nell the least embarrassed of the three.,"Mona, do be friends with me," he says at last, desperately, driven to simplicity of language through his very misery. There is a humility in this speech that pleases her.,This is tough work, and takes her all her time, as Mrs. Carson, having made up her mind to the beads, accepts it rather badly being undeceived, and goes nearly so far as telling Mona that she knows little or nothing about her own people.,Perhaps another reason for Mona's having found such favor in the eyes of "the biggest woman in our shire, sir," lies in the fact that she is in many ways so totally unlike all the other young women with whom the duchess is in the habit of associating. She is naive to an extraordinary degree, and says and does things that might appear outre in others, but are so much a part of Mona that it neither startles nor offends one when she gives way to them.,"What is to be done?

A wild surprize, which was strangely mingled with hope, seized me, and in my first emotion I should have answered the call, had not a recollection crossed me, which destroyed at once every half-raised sensation of joy. I remembered the dreadful vengeance which the marquis had sworn to execute upon me, if I ever, by any means, endeavoured to make known the place of my concealment; and though life had long been a burden to me, I dared not to incur the certainty of being murdered.

I long perplexed myself with endeavouring to account for this strange circumstance, and am to this moment ignorant of its cause.'.
