I'd try for anything I was eligible for, if I couldn't draw a stroke, just to be in with the rest.",Just about this time the steward Paul came down the companion steps with the cabin key which he had received from Mr Lawrence. He took no notice of the two men seated at the table, but stepped to Lucy's door, knocked, paused, inserted the key, and passed in. He emerged in less than two minutes holding the tray that was covered literally with broken victuals, and locking the door was about to step up the companion ladder when Mr Pledge said: "Who've you got locked up in that there cabin?"，"So there is; something specially awful," responds Nolly, pensively. "She frightens me to death. She has an 'eye like a gimlet.' When I call to mind the day my father inveigled me into the library and sort of told me I couldn't do better than go in for Lilias, my knees give way beneath me and smite each other with fear. I shudder to think what part in her mediæval programme would have been allotted to me."，As they had so little time in which to accomplish their plan every minute was valuable, so, as soon as they had provided for the night, they started out to find some sort of a boat to carry them on their adventure.，"No," says Mona, shaking her head.

If you really want to go, Jerry, I’ll start along with you any time.”,"Poor David!" echoed Etwald, with a sneer. "Foolish David, you might say, to die for the sake of a woman.",“She’s the swellest looking one in the whole school,” he whispered to his smiling mother.,Patricia shook her head. "She's with Griffin and Bottle Green," she answered under her breath. "What do you want her for?",The waiter bowed as he folded the coat carefully.,“Interesting all right, but I wouldn’t swap the Service for it by a long shot!”,"I can explain that in a measure, Miss Dallas. If you remember I cured Dido of a bad nervous headache by hypnotic suggestion. Her mind, therefore, became habituated in responding to mine, and doubtless she feels a kind of impression which tells her that I am near.",“I’m fairly out of my wits with joy,” replied Grandmother.,"Go," she says, again, entreatingly, still with her hand on Geoffrey's breast, as though to keep him back, but with her eyes on Paul.,Mr Lawrence's eye reposed upon Lucy's figure whilst his father was bidding the party farewell, whilst she walked away on Captain Acton's right, Aunt Caroline strutting and leaning with some affectation on her crutch-cane on his left, the three much saluted by the people who lingered on the wharf, as they went.
