And when things come to the worst they mend.",They climbed the fence and crossed the road to the lane-gate.,“Well, well! Is it you?”，It is a moment never to be forgotten!，"Meaning, I presume, that there are five brothers by the name of Proctor living in the community."，Here the conversation was stayed for a minute or two by the entrance of a footman with a tray of sandwiches and cakes, and ale for Captain Weaver, and wine, and the like."Generous fairy," cried the Prince, "I cannot at this moment show you all my gratitude; but from henceforth, I am your faithful servitor."
