"Where is Giralda?" she exclaimed. "Where is the mare?" "Ay, what have they done with the mare?" Uncle Ulick said in a tone of consternation. "Have they lamed her, I'm wondering? The garron Morty's riding is none of ours." "I begged him not to take her!" Flavia cried, anger contending with her grief.
Hermann Goetze discovers his singers before he has heard them," cried Ulick.

'That's a little Irish blarney to propitiate me, laughed Mr. Kendal, who certainly was in unusual spirits after his execution and rescue by proxy, but you wont escape prison fare. 'There's no doubt who was the heroine of the day, added Sophy. 'How one envies her! 'What! your little governess friend? said Ulick.
