I'se sometin' berry 'portant for de gemman. Hol' on, I say," and she dashed across the plank, nearly knocking Ted down in her headlong haste. "Whar is 'ee?" she gasped, and continued, "Leg-go, I tell ye. Le' me be," as Ted seized her arm, asking what she wanted, and if she was going back to Jacksonville. "No; leg-go, I tell you. I wants the man from de Norf, what comed to see Miss Dory.
For the next half minute the old man's frame shook with silent childlike laughter behind Paul's chair. "Well, Marse Hathaway, yo's an ole frien' o' my massa, and a gemman yo'self, sah, and a senetah, and I do'an mind tellin' yo' dat's jess what I bin gone done! It makes a little ready money for de ole woman and de chilleren.
"We ll, no; you needn't do that," said Beverly, "Put it on my dressing-table. I'll attend to it." "Wha's become o' de gemman 'at wo' hit in the fust place? Ah ain' seen him fo' two three days." "I'm sure I don't know. He's probably asleep. That class of people never lose sleep over anything." "'E's er pow'ful good-lookin' pusson," suggested Aunt Fanny. Beverly's eyes brightened.

I am so glad to cry." For some moments she wept on, until Jakey began to soothe her with his "Doan' cry no mo', honey.

Give the waiter sixpence, and order out your horse, and when your horse is out, pay for the corn, and give the ostler a shilling, then mount your horse and walk him gently for five miles; and whilst you are walking him in this manner, it may be as well to tell you to take care that you do not let him down and smash his knees, more especially if the road be a particularly good one, for it is not at a desperate hiverman pace, and over very bad roads, that a horse tumbles and smashes his knees, but on your particularly nice road, when the horse is going gently and lazily, and is half asleep, like the gemman on his back; well, at the end of the five miles, when the horse has digested his food, and is all right, you may begin to push your horse on, trotting him a mile at a heat, and then walking him a quarter of a one, that his wind may be not distressed; and you may go on in that way for thirty miles, never galloping, of course, for none but fools or hivermen ever gallop horses on roads; and at the end of that distance you may stop at some other nice inn to dinner.

And then they all sang in chorus: Here the Gypsy gemman see, With his Roman jib and his rome and dree Rome and dree, rum and dry Rally round the Rommany Rye.
'Here the Gypsy gemman see, With his Roman jib and his rome and dree Rome and dree, rum and dry Rally round the Rommany Rye. It was Mr. Petulengro, who was here diverting himself with several of his comrades; they all received me with considerable frankness. 'Sit down, brother, said Mr. Petulengro, 'and take a cup of good ale. I sat down.
An' dat Mistah Burns has gone 'way fer gud, sah. But dar am a gemman yere, sah, " "What!" came a surprised ejaculation that caused the negro to jump, and I heard a chair overturned within. "A gentleman? Sam, don't deceive me! For the love of Heaven, let me see him. May I be bastinadoed if it hasn't been three months since my eyes beheld the last specimen! Sam, where was it I saw the last one?"
