And—”,“I was looking foh Jonah and the whale he met on the woad, and I got losted, I did.” St. Elmo ended his fantastic explanation with an extensive gulp. Moses took a small grubby hand in his and led the afflicted boy in triumph to the other searchers.,“No, no! They’ll kill us!”,“Here was Joner scourin’ down to Jopper to take the ship to Tarshidge arter the Lord hed distinctly told him to go to Niniver, an’ fer punishment the Lord hed him swallered by a whale.”，“Put her in my room and give me the Fo’castle; I’ve always wanted to bunk there.”，“They’d look purtier, Glory, ef you’d put more colors in,” commented Mrs. Wopp.，“She said, the Queen of Sheba did, that I’d be in danger, and some one would save me.
