If the Prime Minister o' Rooshia was to come to me in full regimentals an' offer to make me capting o' the Horse Marines to the Hemperor, I'd say, `No thankee, I'm engaged, as the young woman said to the young man she didn't want to marry."

'I must apply to the hemperor for leave of absence, said Sam. Mary sighed again the letter was so very affecting. 'Good-bye! said Sam. 'Good-bye, rejoined the pretty housemaid, turning her head away. 'Well, shake hands, won't you? said Sam. The pretty housemaid put out a hand which, although it was a housemaid's, was a very small one, and rose to go. 'I shan't be wery long avay, said Sam.

Weller left the room, and departed slowly on his errand, with his hands in his pocket and his eyes fixed on the ground. 'Rum feller, the hemperor, said Mr. Weller, as he walked slowly up the street.
