At it they went, tooth and nail.
Say, Tom, let's go to work a-thinkin', an' see if there ain't some way to give dad a lift. Seems to me he's doin' everythin' for us all the whole time, an' we ain't doin' nothin' at all for him."

Yes, seh, Mahstah Majah Ah laid Ah'd brek it grajally an' Ah suttingly did have that lady a-thinkin' ve'y highly of yo' at th' time of yo' entrance, seh, yes, seh!"
