Pshaw!" exclaims Sir Nicholas, shutting up the letter impatiently. "He is mad!",Here she produced a picture of a nest of young robins, their beaks wide open for a tempting morsel hanging from the bill of father robin.,"Pooh, she didn't have to pay much," said Judith with the callousness of childhood.
