"This town life is making me forget my religion already, and as for you, you worldly-minded young sinner, you ought to be ashamed of yourself, beguiling me with your heathenish dance parties. Go along now and let me get my mind in order again.",“Then you don’t love yer li’l sister ef you don’t want her to look like you.” Betty almost wept.，“Whoa, Josh!

It has been a terrible affair, major."，“Express yourself clearly and eat properly.”They at once went to find the Princes, who thought they were going to be put to death, and came forward in great dejection and hanging their heads; the nurse and her daughter were brought in at the same time. The brothers and sister recognised one another, as soon as they were brought face to face, and Rosette threw herself on her brothers' necks.
