Sir Thomas More. Thou hast written verses praise of snuff! Montesinos.
Booth, what I must have endured to see myself humbled before such a creature as this, the daughter of a woman who lets lodgings! However, having recollected myself a little, I thought it would be in vain to deny anything; so, knowing this to be one of the best-natured and most sensible girls in the world, I resolved to tell her my whole story, and for the future to make her my confidante.
I am Lord Frederic Hardy, of Dublin, better known there as Ted Hardy, of Hardy Manor, and I am out on a spree, running myself, independent of tutors and guardians, and all that sort of thing; bores I consider the whole lot of them, though my guardian, fortunately, is the best-natured and most liberal old cove in the world, and gives me mostly all I want.
Ye're the best-natured an' kindest-hearted little girl in the wide world, God bless ye! Roseen drooped her head a little demurely, the colour mantling in her face now, and dimples coming and going about her mouth.

Look at Protestants and Catholics, for instance; their belief isn't the same, and yet I've known 'em to be staunch friends." Miss Drewitt shook her head. "He can never come here again," she said, with great determination. "He has insulted you, and if you were not the best-natured man in the world you would be as angry about it as I am." The captain smoked in silence.
