If any man has impugned the sagacity of pigs, that man has erred!,Etwald rose to his feet and stretched out a menacing hand.,"You black, thievin' passel of impudence, you!" she was saying. "If I had a stick long enough to reach you, you'd never dirty any more of my new-washed clothes.","No fear, sir," called the Captain over the bulwark-rail, with a steady shake of the head and a smile that merely ran his mouth higher into his cheek.

"I guess I ain't scared of no snakes in these parts.",Griffin emerged as suddenly as she had disappeared. "But it's the men that spoil her," she went on as though no interruption had occurred.
