"Of course not, simple child," answered Bob. "We're prominent seniors, one of the leading crowds in 19 . I heard Nan Whipple call us to a freshman that she had at dinner last Sunday." "And all of us but Madeline work early and late to keep up the position," added Babbie grandly.
I picture a little marina; a yellowish little town just above; and behind, rising grandly, the long range of mountains which guard the shore of Calabria. Paola has no special interest that I know of, but it is the nearest point on the coast to Cosenza, which has interest in abundance; by landing here I make a modestly adventurous beginning of my ramble in the South.
"They only lifted seven hundred and fifty." But Daylight grandly brushed aside the confusion. "What's the good of you-all botherin' around that way? What's one more sack? If I can't lift three more, I sure can't lift two. Put 'em in." He stood upon the chairs, squatted, and bent his shoulders down till his hands closed on the rope.

Its moods of beauty are infinite; for the most part gentle and gorgeous, but I have seen it silhouetted hard against tornado-clouds, and grandly grim from the upper regions of its great brother Mungo. And as for Fernando Po in full moonlight well there! you had better go and see it yourself.
The scenery was truly magnificent, but as we thought of the eruption of Sanguir, we saw in what a moment the whole town and neighbourhood might be reduced to desolation should an eruption burst forth from the mountains which rose so grandly above our heads.
