Farmer Two stopped, eyed her, and said to Farmer One, 'Gien it were Monday, as it is the Sabba' day, what would ye tak' for your coow? The other said the price would be nine pounds, if it were Monday. And so they kept the Sabbath; and the cow changed hands, though, to the naked eye, she grazed on in situ.

"If you care to run the risk," he said suddenly, "you may have a chair by the fire till the storm breaks, babu." "Beg pardon?" The babu's eyes widened. "Oah, yess; I see.
