But, tell me, don't you think maybe he's covered up a leetle too close-t? That's better. An' now I've saw him befo' she did! An' I didn't want to, neither. Poor leetle, teenchy, weenchy bit of a thing! Ef he ain't the very littlest! Lordy, Lordy, Lordy! But I s'pose all thet's needed in a baby is a startin'-p'int big enough to hol' the fam'ly ch'racteristics.
Jan never had been so superlatively fit; so instinct in every least hair of his coat, in every littlest vein of his body, with tingling life and pulsing energy. His coat crackled if a man's hand was passed along his black saddle.
"Well, I'll come up and help you out." "Do," Hollanden laughed; "you and Miss Fanhall can team it against the littlest Worcester girl and me." He regarded the landscape and meditated. Hawker struggled for a grip on the thought of the stubble. "That colour of hair and eyes always knocks me kerplunk," observed Hollanden softly. Hawker looked up irascibly. "What colour hair and eyes?" he demanded.
The only sound was the scratching of the pens over the paper. Once some beetles flew in; but nobody paid any attention to them, not even the littlest ones, who worked right on tracing their fish-hooks, as if that was French, too. On the roof the pigeons cooed very low, and I thought to myself: "Will they make them sing in German, even the pigeons?"
It was wild to see him rush up and down in the back yard, barking and bouncing at the wall, when there was some dog out beyond, but when the very littlest one there was got inside of the fence and only looked at Peter, Peter would retire to his Anna and blot himself out between her skirts. When Peter was left downstairs alone, he howled.
"I think we'd better give Doright a little souvenir," Frank suggested. "Doright, what would you like to have best of all?" Doright considered deeply, scratching his head meanwhile. At length he looked up with a smile spreading across his face. "Ah reckon I'd like best to jes' cook an' clean upon this here boat. She sure am a fine boat and Ah wouldn't be in the way a littlest bit.
"I was coming to mend your poor bruises!" "I haven't got any bruises." The engaging touch of swagger delighted her. A man to-day in very deed. Her gaze dwelt upon him. It was as if she looked through the eyes of her husband into the heart of her son. Gravely she entered into his mood. "That is good. Then we will just make you tidy and one littlest dab for this not-bruise on your cheek."
It was on the occasion of his visit to me just after he had talked with the peace commissioners at Hampton Roads. After a little conversation, he asked me if I had seen that overcoat of Stephens's. I replied that I had. "Well," said he, "did you see him take it off?" I said yes. "Well," said he, "didn't you think it was the biggest shuck and the littlest ear that ever you did see?"
Presently I grew tired of sitting alone on the hill, and went down to the others. When I reached there, I found that they were building three war lodges, and as I drew near, all the young men began to call out to me, each one asking me to come over to him. I was the littlest fellow in the party, and they all wanted me, thinking that I might bring them luck.
When Mun Bun had said that a bear had come up out of the lake, at first Rose felt she was going to be frightened, but when she saw that her littlest brother and sister were also afraid, Rose made up her mind that she must be brave. She looked at Vi, and Vi was a little frightened, too, but not as much so as Mun Bun and Margy.
