When Miss Vaughan states that Dr Westcott is a Palladist, a diabolist, a worshipper of Lucifer, or however she may elect to distinguish it, I reply that she is guilty of a gross libel, which is at the same time an abominable and cruel falsehood.
If we'd guessed what a splendid record you'd made this year, we'd have taken you in even sooner." Wherefore Betty was glad that she had looked up all the history references and stayed at home from the Westcott House dance to write a zoology report that Professor Lawrence himself had called excellent, and done her best with the "Canterbury Tales."
How very far such an assumption is from the true state of the case can easily be shown by a simple comparison of one text with the other. Let us take an example.

"He must be away, I think." "What you do if you no hear at all?" "We'll go on with the digging ourselves, José. It'll pay wages until I can interest capital somewhere to come in on shares."
