Abrahams with gentle chiding answering her: "No, be good: your name is Ruth Levi". For during two years at the Jewish Asylum at Wroxham they had tilled into her shrieking brain, "Now, be good: your name is Rachel Oppenheimer", and one day she had said: "My name is Rachel Oppenheimer", and had been saying it ever since.
See the King with his golden crown, Tri-de-laddie, O!" By noon the Abrahams and Rebekah were being tugged out of harbour, to the hand-wavings and god-speeds of seven emigrant-boats by the quay; but it was not till five that the Regent's emissaries could obtain a special train on the thronged lines; and not till after seven did they arrive with Margaret at the Palace-gates.

Well, I won't say I can't ride it now, nor I won't say it don't come easy. You see, Mr Abrahams, there ain't many things an Englishman can't do if he gives his mind to it." "You look well, Mr Samuel," said the old man, smiling. "Now, no chaff!" said Sam suspiciously. "No gammon! You mean it?" "Of course." "Well, I'm glad I do.
