If they couldn't get it over in that time, they must have forgotten their native tongue. Besides, I wanted to get down; the forked seat in the laurel was not all my fancy had painted it in the beginning, and how was I to know when they were gone unless I looked? Why, otherwise I might be there now. I might be there until next week," winds up Mr. Darling, with increasing wrath. "Ah!" replied her father; "it must always be as he says"; and they spoke no more about it. "What a wretched evening!" says Violet, with a little shiver. "Geoffrey, draw the curtains closer.".
