"Wall, Bede and his daughter used to be called about one piece for temper, though I don't reckon that temper's lackin' allays 'cause it don't show.
He started up from dreams of her; of her, angry. He saw her there, rather pale with her night's watch and anxiety, but looking meek, and a little beseeching. 'Mother has had such a bad night! she fancied once as some balm-tea would do her good it allays used to: but my dried balm is all gone, and I thought there'd be sure to be some in t' old garden at Haytersbank.
Purr, and see Mr. Hurd. He'll give you the five pounds if you take him to Tray." Sylvia handed back the paper. "Tray seems to be ill." "Ill or well, he sha'n't lose me five pun, if I 'ave to drag 'im to the lock-up m'self," said Mrs. Purr, resolutely. "Where's my bunnet my shawl oh lor' five pun!

The desperado told his story: "Jest got a bead on him had him sure pop never see a squarer mark when somebody mounted me pitched me clean out of my hole." "Who?" demanded Coronado, a rim of white showing clear around his black pupils. "Dunno. Didn't see nobody. 'Fore I could reload and git in it was gone." "What the devil did you stop to reload for?"

You young collegers allays does that. But be'est thou to come back and be Squoire o'Folking? 'I think not, Holt, I think not. My father, I hope, will be Squire for many a year. 'Like enough.
