"I will not make the most of it, Mr. Eld," the old man said, with a transient smile.

Bottom, "but then, when it's b'iled down to the p'int, it ain't her, but his own wishes he's chasin'." "Did you mark the way she veered from him to Mr. Jonathan the other day?" inquired William Ming, "she's the sort that would flirt with a scarecrow if thar warn't anything else goin'."
