And wha can tell but she's needin him waur nor he's needin her though there maun aye be something he canna get 'cause ye're no his ain mither, Maggie, and I'm no even his ain gutcher!"

"It's an awfu' peety that some men dinna ken when tae stop; they micht see frae the poopit; if a' saw the tears comin' tae the women's een, or the men glowering like wild cats for fear they sud brak doon, a'd say Amen as quick as Pittendreigh aifter his goat.

Swakopmund is the limit in the down-grade deep sand; brak water; a treacherous, dreary climate, with visitations of furnace-heat desert winds; a huge cemetery; moths and flies.
