There are ships about. You speak falsely if you say there are no ships. We are still near my home. Do as I say before you drive me mad!"，"No!" says Nicholas; meaning, "How very delightful!""Well, let me take you home through the garden then—and, yes, I believe I'll stay to supper with Mrs. Henderson.

As he and Bob swung into the cab, the little locomotive[121] was already moving slowly. “To the east bank, quick!” he ordered and caught the whistle cord.
