I dare say"—with awful meaning in her tone—"you have got a title too!" Then, sternly, "Have you?",All this time Mrs. Wopp ran breathlessly up and down stairs attending to the feverish child. Even wash-day was postponed, but the terrors of that dread event would never again appal Moses, he felt sure, if only Betty got well. Ebenezer Wopp was distracted and neglected to take his usual number of notes.,That was an awful shock, and I hope I didn't show it as I murmured "Perfectly, thank you.","That is what I am afraid of always," says Mona, a little wistfully.，"O'er the dark her silver mantle throws;"，So the hours passed. The two women had their quiet rest till five o’clock when they came down for the usual singing. May Nell had a sweet voice, surprisingly strong for a child; and when she asked to play her own accompaniment to a little song unknown to Edith, the latter was surprised by the child’s skill, and still more by her rare feeling and expression.，"Your telescope is in the hall, sir," said the Admiral.
