Maria sniffed contemptuously. "Ye're no great shakes at a pertectin' o' me, Jed Bungay. Now you sit down thar an' begin ter fill up. I reckon as how ther Cap an' his gal will kinder jine with us fer manners."
I'd sooner have a kiss from you than all the wine as ever was swallowed. Then she did kiss him, 'as though she meant it; and when she returned with him to Bungay the next day, she had made up her mind that she would endeavour to do her duty by him as his wife.
"Fifteen guineas a day is four thousand five hundred a year; I've calculated it." "Our dining-room won't hold ten," he said. "We'll only ask twenty, my love. Ten are sure to refuse in this season, when everybody is giving parties. Look, here is the list." "Earl and Countess of Bungay, and Lady Barbara Saint Mary's." "Law, my dear, they are our cousins, and must be asked," Rosa said.
Bungay, you would not deprive the South of his valuable service?" "An' wouldn't I, now? An' didn't thet little whiffit promise me long afore he ever did you uns? Ain't he my nat'ral pertecter? Whut's a lone female a goin' ter dew yere in ther mountings wi'out no man?" Her eyes flashed angrily at me.
Mr. and Mrs. Fitzroy Timmins live in Lilliput Street, that neat little street which runs at right angles with the Park and Brobdingnag Gardens. It is a very genteel neighborhood, and I need not say they are of a good family. Especially Mrs. Timmins, as her mamma is always telling Mr. T.

Bungay, a great nobleman whom all Liberals loved, and a member of the Cabinet. He had come in since dinner, and had been asking a question or two as to what had been decided.

As I have told, it was my father's wish that I should be a physician, and since I came back from my schooling at Norwich, that was when I had entered on my sixteenth year, I had studied medicine under the doctor who practised his art in the neighbourhood of Bungay. He was a very learned man and an honest, Grimstone by name, and as I had some liking for the business I made good progress under him.
Samuel Malbon silenced by the Act of Uniformity, who is described as a man mighty in the Scriptures, who became pastor to the church in Amsterdam. In 1695 we hear of a conventicle in Bungay, with a preacher with a regularly paid stipend of £40 a year. Till 1700 the congregation worshipped in a barn; but in that year the old meeting-house was built, and let to the congregation at £10 per annum.
