"She'll promise not to split, I'll answer for it. Won't you, Martha?" "Eh, for sure," said Martha, "if you're bound to have your talk here, you needn't be afraid of me; only I hope you're not going to do anything as'll bring us into trouble." "Never fear," said her husband; "there, sit you down and mend your stockings, and the less you heed us the less you'll have to afterthink."
Beale came, and the first thing she did was to buy a leg of mutton and cook it. It was the first meat we had had since arriving at Lymchurch. "I 'spect she can't afford good butcher's meat," said Mrs. Beale; "but your pa, I expect he pays for you, and I lay he'd like you to have your fill of something as'll lay acrost your chesties." So she made a Yorkshire pudding as well. It was good.
A strong, steady feller, and a good workman an' all, and one as'll look after her an' treat her kind. But I mind what I said to Mrs Pinhorn on that very day: `I hope it may be so, I says, `but it takes an angel, and not a man, to bear with a woman as weak an' shiftless as Hepzibah, and not lose his temper. And now look at 'em!

Come, Mr Vandean, sir, say the word when. Now? At once?" "No, no," whispered back Mark; "you are all weak and ill. I've been thinking about it since I spoke, and it is too much for you to do." A low, angry murmur arose, and Tom Fillot chuckled. "Too much for us, sir? Not it. You've only got to give the word, and there's that in us now as'll carry us through anything.
Tulliver, "what I want is to give Tom a good eddication an eddication as'll be a bread to him. I mean to put him to a downright good school at midsummer.
