The child had become increasingly drowsy and asked Howard to sing her to sleep.,“Mose, hoi’ this benighted idjit of a jint till I drive a nail in the wall to wire it up,” called Mr. Wopp, thrusting a nail between his teeth and turning his back on his wife.,"I hope old Greyquill will not go to extremes," exclaimed the Admiral, with a flush in his face. "It is dishonour enough to be in his debt, but to be imprisoned! There is no good in his looking to me for repayment.","Perhaps.

I had a mind this morning to ride over and view the wreck or what remains of her."，"Now," said he in a soft voice full of the emotion which his daughter's preservation and restoration had filled him with—"now that my dear child, by the mercy and goodness of Almighty God, has been returned to me I am for heading straight for Old Harbour Town, for she has had enough of the sea—more than enough, and I am for having her at home, safe again. She has gone through much, she looks ill, she needs the rest and nursing she can only get at home."She fell a-laughing at his sottish indignation, but quickly recollected herself.

"I'd awful like to have Harry O'Dule, too.","Why, sir, of course I accept without hesitation, and feel most deeply obliged.","What, indeed?" says Geoffrey, tragically. "Worse still, what would have become of poor Mona?","What in the world—" she began in alarm, but Elinor silenced her questioning with a weak wave of one tired hand.,“Did you get your men?”,“All right?” called Bob to Jerry, who had been carried past him by the foam-flecked water.,"Good by, dear Paul," says Mona, very gently, impressed by his evident grief and earnestness.,Oh, Molly, Molly, is it for this you came into the world, twice to give yourself without love? What difference does it make that your arms are strong and white if they can't clasp him? Why are your eyes blue pools of love if they are not for his questioning?,“And was he pleased?”,Then he would make—h’m—seven baskets of pretty colored paper and fill them with peppermint drops.
