Why, in the fust place, it's a mortal 'ard frost, 'arder nor hiron; in the second place, I've got no arrangements made you can't turn out a pack of 'igh-bred fox-'ounds as you would a lot of "staggers" or "muggers"; and, in the third place, you'll knock all your nags to bits, and they are a deal better in their wind than they are on their legs, as it is.
She was for Opeta, the foreign competitor. A white-haired Australian woman, with a strong accent, favored Teaea, and when the Raratonga youth was winning, shouted to Teaea: "'It 'im 'arder, Ol' Peet!

"Oh, not at all, not at all" airily replied the teacher, and turning to his class, he exclaimed with a very superior smile: "Now, ladies and gentlemen, 'ere is a scientific gentleman who thinks it is 'arder to sing of 'igh mountings than it is to sing of low mountings," and forthwith the class began to demonstrate that in respect to vocalization there was no difference at all.
The landlord and the P.M. nodded pleasantly to each other, and wished each other good morning.... Verdict for plaintiff with costs... Next case!... "You mustn't take up the time of the court, my good woman.".. "Now, constable!".."Arder in the court!"... "Now, my good woman," said the policeman in an undertone, "you must go out; there's another case on-come now."
The cabman, short and broad, eyed him with his fierce little eyes that seemed to smart in a clear and corroding liquid. “’Ard on ’osses, but dam’ sight ’arder on poor chaps like me,” he wheezed just audibly. “Poor!

It'll go that much 'arder with you there ain't a bloomin' chance for you t' get away. You might just as well give up peaceable." "Oh, don't preach," MacRae protested. "I know all that as well as you do. Great Scott!
"You work oncommon 'ard drownd me if you don't!" "Pretty hard!" I nodded. "An' gets well paid for it, p'r'aps?" "Not so well as I could wish," said I.
