These observations were speedily drowned by the lusty lungs of a flyman bellowing out, as Green passed, "Hallo! my young brockley-sprout, are you here again? now then for the tizzy you owe me, I have been waiting here for it ever since last Monday morning."
He caught up to it at last, but too late, for it was just as the kite plunged into the top of one of the highest trees by the river, and there it stuck. Tizzy came crying up, while Ned jerked and tugged at the string till he knew that if he pulled harder the kite would be torn; but there it stuck, and Tizzy wept. "Oh," she cried, "and such a beautiful kite as it was!"
It's a forger; and I didn't send them off on a false scent O no! I thought there was no use in having them over our way; so I give them 'very valuable information, Mr. Lavender said, and tipped me a tizzy for myself; and they're off to Luton. They showed me the 'andcuffs, too the other one did and he clicked the dratted things on my wrist; and I tell you I believe I nearly went off in a swound!
"Wrong you are, for once, Jerry! 'Twarn't no more Mackerel than it was Camberwell." Said Mr. Jerry: "Take an even tizzy on it, Mo?" He twisted the paper about to recover the paragraph, and found it. "Here we are! 'Ralph Daverill, alias Thornton, alias Wix, alias! ..." "Never mind his ale-houses, Jerry. That's the name I'm consarned with Daverill.... What's the matter with M'riar?"

As his sister caught the string the boy dashed to the tree. "Oh, Teddy, don't; you'll fall you'll fall!" cried Tizzy. "That I won't," he said stoutly. "I've climbed larger trees than this at school."
"And the grounds are showed too," said the Boots, "if so be you has a mind to stay and see 'em. But don't you go to the gardener, he'll want half a crown; there's an old 'Oman at the lodge who will show you all that's worth seeing the walks and the big cascade for a tizzy.
Danged if I know how an old fellah in his bed-room muddles away money at that rate. I don't suppose he thinks I can git along without tin, and he knows them trustees won't gi'e me a tizzy till they get what they calls an opinion dang 'em! Bryerly says he doubts it must all go under settlement.

I saw that the two girls looked at me very sharply, but I stood at the back of an arm-chair so that no one could see my feet. But that little imp Tizzy walked round deliberately, looked at my heels, and then walked back again. It was clear that she was in the secret.
Away it went, higher and higher, till there was no need for the holder to run, and consequently he began to walk back towards Tizzy, unwinding more and more string till there was but little left, when the string was placed in Tizzy's hands, and, breathless and flushed with excitement, she held on, watching the soaring framework of paper, with its wings fluttering and its tail invisible all but the round knob at the end, sailing about in the air.
