"But we need not discuss these things, Mrs. Dallas. May I ask why you have paid me this visit?",“What’s the matter with Billy To-morrow? He’s thirteen! Three and ten! Most a man! He’s all right!”,“It certainly is wonderful,” agreed Nell with perfect truth.，“I meant particularly at school.”，Before Bob could answer, Tom Wickham had broken in.，May Nell looked at him with wide eyes. She saw that he was not a vineyard workman, his clothes were too fine.

"I do hope she isn't the under-housemaid," said Jack, moodily. "It has grown so awfully common. Three fellows this year married under-housemaids, and people are tired of it now; one can't keep up the excitement always. Anything new might create a diversion in his favor, but he's done for if he has married another under-housemaid.","I'm afraid I don't fit very well yet," Scroggie answered. "Maybe you'll let me trail along with you sometimes, Bill, and learn things?","It's that air of real hard study that makes it so good," said Elinor, twirling the stool to catch every view of the figure.
