A big wave dashed over his legs, and the pear rocked and plunged frightfully.,Elinor merely stirred and mumbled something indistinct, much to the contrite Patricia's relief.,Come, it's me ears a glad ditty would hear—,“Gee! Betty,” laughed the boy, “yer eyes look orful yet, this is the fust good shake my sides hev felt to-day, it’s jist been ’orrible the way Mar was jawred.”,"'A careless shoe-string in whose tie，“He’s going to make a fine engineer, Mr. Hazard. You’ll be proud of him.”，"David," said he, quietly, "there is something very extraordinary in your behavior, and you refuse to give me your reasons therefor.

“They’d look purtier, Glory, ef you’d put more colors in,” commented Mrs. Wopp.,“There’s a little secret about work; with grown-ups it is often their play; and they like it.”,“Why, I invite you, you see.”,His astonishment was unaffected and amazing; with the habit of senility he kept on muttering to himself aloud whilst he perused and re-perused the letter.,Then he put on a necklace of bear claws, a band of bear fur about his head, and a belt of bear fur, and sang and danced. When he had finished he gave the things he had worn to the man and said, "Teach the people our song and our dance, and give them this medicine. It is powerful.",“Perhaps I can poke her out with a stick,” suggested Johnny. But not a stick could they find, though they looked all around. In the sail-boat, however, there was the finest kind of a boat-hook.,The woodcutter began at last to lose his temper, for she repeated over twenty times that they would repent the deed, and that she had said it would be so.

The wife was all in tears. "Alas! where are now my children, my poor children?" She uttered her cry, at last, so loudly, that the children, who were at the door, heard her, and began to call out all together, "Here we are! here we are!" She rushed to the door to open it, and embracing them, exclaimed, "How thankful I am to see you again, my dear children; you are very tired and hungry; and you, little Peter, how dirty you are! come here and let me wash you." Peter was her eldest son, and she loved him better than all the rest, because he was red-headed, and she was rather red-haired herself. They sat down to supper and ate with an appetite that delighted their father and mother, to whom they related how frightened they had been in the forest, nearly all keeping on speaking at the same time. The good people were overjoyed to see their children around them once more, and their joy lasted as long as the ten crowns.

Food choked him. He left the others eating, with a word or two about having eaten heartily of thimble-berries and not caring for anything more.,The momentous Friday comes at last, and about noon Mona and Geoffrey start for the Towers. They are not, perhaps, in the exuberant spirits that should be theirs, considering they are going to spend their Christmas in the bosom of their family,—at all events, of Geoffrey's family which naturally for the future she must acknowledge as hers. They are indeed not only silent, but desponding, and as they get out of the train at Greatham and enter the carriage sent by Sir Nicholas to meet them their hearts sink nearly into their boots, and for several minutes no words pass between them.,Even the white chickens followed in a cackling bunch as they always did when Billy appeared at this hour, for it was almost feeding time.
