Bone rejoices in showing off the wonders of the place to them, in matching Coly's shiny sides against the "Government beastesses," in talking of the giant red beets, or crumpled green cauliflower, breaking the rich garden-mould. "Yer've no sich cherries nor taters nor raspberries as dem in de Norf, I'll bet!" Even the crimson trumpet-flower on the wall is "a Virginny creeper, Sah!"
Our Heabenly Maker, he gib us our lives an' de earth an' all as is on it, for ourselves free! And what have we to render him in turn? Nothing! And what does he 'quire ob us? On'y lub him and lub each oder, like human beings and 'mortal souls made in his own image to live forever! and not to screw and 'press each oder, and devour an' prey on each oder like de wild beastesses dat perish!
Did you say married? Oh, Cadge, quit pegging shoes!" Jumping up from the drawing table, Kitty left streams of India ink making her beastesses all tigers while she called to Miss Bryant, who was pounding viciously upon a typewriter: "Cadge, did you hear? Cadge! The Princess is going to be married. 'Course you remember, Mr. Burke, Cadge is going to be married herself Saturday."
There was hardly a square inch of skin not made beautiful forever about here." "Ah! and there was no sale for his beastesses and bird-ses nuther; or else he was clean sold out, and hadn't no capital to renew his stock of hairy cats and young parrots." "The very stuffed beasts, perched above old Dicky's shop, had got to look real mangey and mouldy.
Looks apoplectic; and there's too much musk in her violet." "That was Mrs. Henry, but I'm not on Peggy's list. How are the beastesses' noses and toeses?" "Ambulance rung for." Kitty darted to another looking glass. "Regular hall of mirrors, ain't it?
Dick made his salaam, and then took up a position beside the sally port, with an important face, like a showman exhibiting wild beastesses, a regular "stir him up with a long pole" sort of look. I followed him "This is Lieutenant Cringle, Captain Transom." "The devil it is!" said Transom, trying in vain to keep his gravity. "Why, I see it is How do you do, Mr Cringle? glad to see you."
"It would have been in all the papers, and have cost nothing." "But you don't know, George, what them beastesses was eating! It was frightful to hear of! Four-and-twenty pounds of corn a day each of 'em, because the armour was so uncommon heavy." The men in armour were then given up, but they certainly were beginning to be effective.
We're not allowed to keep anything, though they make us sweat across the moor what they call 'observing the animal creation in its own haunts. They like one to grind over beastesses and butterflies and suchlike." "I know a lot about them," boasted Ishmael. "Then you'd better keep your mouth shut about it, that's all I can say, or the fellows will think you're a prig.
But she was 'a mortal fine woman, was Lady Hamilton, though she was a queer one, and cruel kind to the sailors; and many a man she saved from flogging; and one from hanging, too; that was a marine that got a-stealing; for Nelson, though he was kind enough, yet it was a word and a blow with him; and quite right he, sir; for there be such rascals on board ship, that if you ain't as sharp with them as with wild beastesses, no man's life, nor the ship's neither, would be worth a day's purchase.
I suspect that she dared not lift her head for fear I might see the laughter in her eyes. "I've made it extra strong, Mr. Burke," she managed to say, "because I'm starting for the Star office to find the photo-engravers routing the noses and toeses off all my best beastesses." "Kitty thinks all photo-engravers the embodiment of original sin," said the Shining One. "They clip her bears' claws."
