But May Nell’s coming and the added expense still troubled him; and it was a resolute face he turned to his mother. “No, mamma, you shan’t get down on your marrow bones to these old floors. It’s only me that needs to go on the knees, you know.” His eyes twinkled.,“Well, now, is that so? It sounds to me like a furrin word,” returned Mrs. Wopp, who admired Mrs. Mifsud’s polished utterances, while by no means undervaluing her own rhetorical gifts.，Billy started to move away. "I must be gettin' home," he said. "The cows'll be waitin' to be watered."，"Have you hung up the light in Miss Acton's cabin?" said Mr Lawrence.，"Listen, Ma," said Billy gently. "That old Johnston was awful mean to us kids, there's no mistake about that. He whipped us fer nothin', an' what's worse, he was always sneerin' at us fer being low-born an' ignorant, an' that meant sayin' things ag'in our folks. But we was willin' to stand all that, cause we'd promised Teacher Stanhope that we'd do our best to put up with the teacher in his place.

Finish your letters, and come for me then, and we can go into the garden and talk it all over again. Come in, Mona; I am here.",“When I see Moses was still wearin’ his best Sunday coat an’ pants an’ tearin’ along on that cayuse like John Gilping, I come all out in goose-flesh, Ebenezer, till you’d think the merkery had fell clean down to zero.”,Judith gave an impatient wriggle, but it was Patricia again who spoke.,“Smile, Moses, dern yer empty corn-cob face! Smile!” shouted one.,"There will be no need for him to do that," replied David, coldly. "I shall never marry Isabella.",“And I’m going to be on your own corps? This is too much,” and the boy laughed happily.,"With Lady Mary. She was staying at the castle there; it was last year, and she asked me to go with her. I was delighted. And it was so pleasant, and everything so—so like heaven. The lakes are delicious, so calm, so solitary, so full of thought. Lady Mary is old, but young in manner, and has read and travelled so much, and she likes me," says Mona, naively. "And I like her.
