"If we can only get some of the starch out of her by the time she's old enough to take notice, her dream of being a great writer may come half-way true."，“Ten? You won’t think of playing with us, then. Ma thought you’d be just our age.”，"You know her well enough, for example," said Mr Lawrence, critically surveying him as though he took counsel within himself whilst he talked, "that if I gave you a letter for her and for none other"—he frowned, and with some passion emphasised none other—"you are not likely to mistake, you are not likely to give it to another."，Billy laughed. "Gee! Ma's like that. Nobody gets 'way from her very easy.

He laughed at Isabella's stories and superstitions, and succeeded in making her ashamed of her weakness in placing faith in such degraded rubbish. While with him Isabella was a bright and laughing girl; quite another sort of being to the grave and nervous creature she was while in the presence of Dido.

Rodney, putting out his hand, tries to draw her behind him.,"You will know, sir," replied Captain Acton, "one of Nelson's favourite sayings: at sea something must be left to chance.

If this does not happen, I shall not be at a loss, and meanwhile, Sir William, let us get a view of the barque.","Yes. I knew about the secret panel from Warden, old Elspeth's nephew, who alone, I think, knew of its existence. I was determined to get the will.
