What is it?" "The sugar and that hawker," and Paul related what Sylvia had said about Thuggism. Hurd sat down and stared. "That must be bosh," he said, looking at the novel, "and yet it's mighty queer. I say," he took the three volumes, "will you lend me these?" "Yes. Be careful. They are not mine." "I'll be careful.
Why, I can scarcely make my own fellows go! Bosh! I know boys; school is their bugbear." "But, under correction, sir, permit me to say I don't think you know young Ishmael." "I know he is a boy; that is enough!" "But, sir, he is rather an uncommon boy." "In that case he has an uncommon aversion to school." "Sir, put it to him, whether he would like to go to school."
It's on your side or else against you. And luck has been on my side these last nine years. It has never betrayed me; and you expect me to betray it? Why? Out of fear? Prison? My son? Bosh!... No harm will come to me so long as I compel luck to work on my behalf. It's my servant, it's my friend. It clings to the clasp. How? How can I tell?
"Bosh? Yes, I do. I think all vows bosh; but without asking you to agree to that, though I think I did ask the Bishop of Bellminster to, I do say this one is utter bosh. Why, your own people say so, don't they?" "My own people? The people I suppose you mean don't say so. I took a vow never to marry there were even more stringent terms but that's enough." "Well?"
"Between ourselves, he found it was of no account at all. Queer, isn't it, when the man ... but of course literature's another proposition. Howland says it's one of the cases where an idea might seem original and striking if one didn't happen to be able to trace its descent. And this is straight out of bosh by Pellerin. ... Yes: Pellerin.
In many cases they take with them town-bred servants to a country residence; and then, like ourselves, find they know nothing whatever of the duties required of them. To those who have several acres of pasture land, of course this little book is all "bosh."
"She is queer," said Archie, "certainly." "Queer! By George, I'll back her for the queerest bit of horseflesh going any way about these diggings. I thought she was mad at first, but I believe she knows what she's about." "She knows what she's about well enough.. She's worth all the money if you can only get her to work." "Bosh, my dear fellow." "Why bosh? What's up now?" "Bosh! Bosh! Bosh!
She breathed easier. "And will you confine your appeals to me?" "What do you mean?" "I thought you might take it into your head to appeal to Mr. Thorpe's honour, decency, self-respect and love for you," she said, sullenly. "He is quite as guilty as I, remember." "He has quite a different object in view. He seems to feel that he is doing me a good turn, not an evil one." "Bosh!" She was angry.
"Humph! ye're eternally at that bit o' humbug. It's bam, old man, all bam; bosh and gammon," said Orrick. "It'll never come to no good, I tell ye." "Who knows?" replied the old man meekly, but going on with his work not the less diligently because of these remarks.
That is what I am after now, and the good work must not be spoiled by undue haste. So I put on a decorous air of sympathy, and said, "That's all bosh, you know. If anything is the matter with you physically, I ought to hear about it; but I don't believe there is. As for the mind, we are all subject to gloomy moods and periods of depression; but they pass, Jim they pass.
