Then, sternly, "Have you?","It is not three hundred pounds, sir," answered Mr Lawrence, with the countenance of a man who is resolved in his intention, but desires to speak with prudence and good humour.,"But, my dearest, why? There is not the slightest danger now, and my horse is a good one, and I sha'n't be any time getting——","If there was nothing to fear from the enemy's ships," she said, "and if the sea was always calm and the breeze gentle and mild, I believe I might wish to make a voyage in the Minorca to the West Indies.",Patricia gave the stool a whirl, staring discontentedly at the afflicting group.，"Go, Paul!" she says, with vehement entreaty, the word passing her lips involuntarily.，Elinor's eyes filled with a glad light, and she took Patricia in her arms.
