"She's mighty clever about most things."，"She couldn't, don't you see, without telling her father's private affairs?" said Elinor gently. "She didn't feel that it was any excuse for her conduct, anyway."，“You poor nut! You haven’t any sense anyway!”"Humph! Didn't the doctor think it strange that he should find it there?"

His fork having safely landed its cargo, Mr. Wopp laid it carefully down and remarking, “I must make a note of that,” he began to inscribe Nell’s diplomatic request.
