“No ‘chase’ to-day, girls. I’ve got business in town.” “Wharfmaster, ahoy!” Billy hailed, as they came near the water’s edge. “Is all ship-shape?” Not unwillingly the boy relinquished his task. Weeding after all is thankless work. The weeds will persist in growing in spite of every discouragement..

"Madam," replied the Frog, "we must leave that to Heaven; we can only do that which depends on ourselves."

Billy was off, fear lending fleetness to feet that a moment before had been leaden. He overtook his mother and Jean in the path to the Lodge. “Have you come for her?” he panted. “Do you think she’s alone still?” A lot more nonsense he rattled off, squeezing and kissing her till she was breathless with laughter.
