"Doan't you see, sonny, this ban't a fair bargain? I'm not a hard man " "By gor! not hard enough by a powerful deal," said Billy. "Not hard on youth; but this match, so to call it, looks like mere moonshine. Theer 's nought to it I can see both childer, and neither with as much sense as might sink a floatin' straw." "We love each other wi' all our hearts and have done more 'n half a year.
Blee was the first to stand bewildered before Ted's blunt announcement that he had come for Mrs. Blanchard's luggage. "What luggage? What the douce be talkin' 'bout?" he asked. "Why, everything, I s'pose. She 'm comin' home to-day that's knawn, ban't it?" "Gormed if 'tis! Not by me, anyways nor Miller, neither." Then Phoebe appeared and Billy heard the truth. "My! An' to keep it that quiet!
But doan't 'e let it fasten into your heart. Pray to God to wipe away these here awful opinions. Else they'll be the ruin of 'e, body an' sawl. If Luke Gosp'ling brot 'e to this pass in time o' darkness an' tribulation, 'tis a cruel pity you didn't bide a church member." "I wish I thot you was in the right, uncle," said the sailor calmly, "but I knaws you ban't.
"All the same, theer'd be hell an' Tommy to pay mighty quick, if you an' me did the things that bwoy does, an' carried on that onreligious," replied Mr. Blee, with gloomy conviction. "Ban't fair to other people, an' if 't was Doomsday I'd up an' say so. What gude deeds have he done to have life smoothed out, an' the hills levelled an' the valleys filled up? An' nought but sour looks for it."
"Best pull yourself together, Gaffer, or bad-hearted folks might say you was bosky-eyed. That ban't no novelty anyway, but 't is early yet to be drunk just three o'clock by the church." Bosky-eyed = intoxicated. Mr. Blee marched on without waiting for a reply.
A masterful bwoy, like his faither before him, wild sometimes an' wayward tu, but not with women-folk. His faither loved in wan plaace awnly. He'll be true to your cheel whatever betides, or I'm a fule." "What's the use of that if he ban't true to himself? No, no, I caan't see a happy ending to the tale however you look at it. Wish I could.
He knew Lezzard to be more than seventy years old and usually regarded the ancient man's rivalry with contempt; but he felt uneasy for a few moments, until the front door of Mrs. Coomstock's dwelling was opened to him by the lady herself. "My stars! You? What a terrible coorious thing!" she said. "Why for?" "Come in the parlour. Theer! coorious ban't the word!"
"Very onhandsome of 'e, Mr. Grimbal," declared the stout Chappie; "an' you so young an' in the prime of life, tu!" Here Phoebe met them, and Mr. Blee, observing the signs of tears upon her face, supposed that anxiety for him had wet her cheeks, and comforted his master's child. "Doan't 'e give way, missy. 'T is all wan, an' I ban't 'feared of the tomb, as I've tawld 'em.
So that's how't is; an' I ban't gwaine to bide Grimbal's time to be ruined, you may be very sure of that. Now I knaw, I act." "He may be quite content you should knaw. That's meat an' drink enough for him, to think of you gwaine in fear day an' night." "Ess, but that's not my way. I ban't wan to wait an enemy's pleasure." "You won't go to him, Will?" "Go to un? Ess fay 'fore the day's done, tu."
Tchut Tchut Theer ban't no God that's what's the matter!" "Billy! How can you?" "She'm gwaine to marry t'other, arter all! From her awn lips I've heard it! That's what I get for being a church member from the womb! That's my reward! God, indeed! Be them the ways o' a plain-dealin' God, who knaws what's doin' in human hearts? No fay! Bunkum an' rot!
