"And who do you think it is?" "Vell, sir," answered Mr. "And when will that be?" "Jest so soon as my leg sarves me, sir, say a veek, say, two." "You're in no hurry then?" "Lord, no, sir, I'm never in an 'urry."
It fell with a bursting squeak, and retired in grumpy silence to ruminate over the dire consequences of a too earnest gaze in the face of a child. "Well done, child'n!" cried John Adams. "Sarves him right. Come, now, to grub, all of you." Even though the Pitcairn children had been disobedient by nature, they would have obeyed that order with alacrity.

Vy don'd I learnt some manners dot vould make a chentleman uf you!"
Dexter?" asked Mrs. Day puzzled. "Why, I been gittin' of it all over taown," groaned the expressman. "Sarves me right, I s'pose. I see the reedic'lous side o' most things that happen ter other folks an' they gotter right ter laff at me." "Why, what's happened ye?" asked Aunt 'Mira. "Jefers-pelters!" ejaculated Walky. "Ain't Janice tol' ye?" "Nothin' about you," Mrs. Day assured him.
Nabbem, with a grin; "and for my part, I thinks all who sarves the king should stand up for him, and take care of their little families!" "You speak what others think!" answered Tomlinson, smiling also. "And I will now, since you like politics, point out to you what I dare say you have not observed before." "What be that?" said Nabbem.
"'But talking and talking, and scheming for ever, for coming home." "Ah! home is a full cup," moaned Grannie. "It was a show the way that lad was fond of it. 'Give me a plate of mate, bolstered with cabbage, and what do I care for their buns and sarves, Grannie, says he. Aw, boy veen, boy bogh!" "What does the nightingale care for a golden cage when he can get a twig?" said Cæsar.
Queen was there then; and where she is, of coarse all the world and its wife is too. She warn't there this year, and it sarves folks right.
