He realized that this was not the place for a prolonged conversation. "Spike," he said, "do you know Savoy Mansions?" "Sure. Foist to de left across de way." "Come on there. I'll meet you at the door. We can't talk here. That cop's got his eye on us." He walked away. As he went, he smiled. The policeman's inspection had made him suddenly alert and on his guard. Yet why?
De simple child o' nature had better chase himself inter de water. Every man at de end of his lines is mad or loaded or silly, an' de cop's madder an' loadeder an' sillier than de rest. Dey all take it outer de horses. Dere's no wavin' brooks ner ripplin' grass on de Belt Line. Run her out on de cobbles wid de sparks flyin', an' stop when de cop slugs you on de bone o' yer nose. Dat's N'York; see?
Watkins, "I thought it rather a good notion when it occurred to me. I expect to begin to-morrow night." "What! You don't mean to paint in the open, by night?" "I do, though."

You do wisely, by the mass, you do wisely; for had you not been ready to clap your hind face on the mustard-pot as soon as you came within sight of these arms mark ye me, cop's body the bottom of your breeches had supplied the office of a close-stool.
"Go straight in," he said, jerking a thumb. "A cop's waitin' for you." Winifred did not vouchsafe him even an indignant glance. Holding her head high, she passed through the main office, and made for a door marked "Manager." She knocked, and was admitted by Mr. Fowle.

Perrine turned her head quickly, and they all burst out laughing, amused at the joke. She had not gone far before she had to stop. She could not see the road for the tears which filled her eyes.
'Nay, I said, with my back against the wrought-iron stay of the gate, which was socketed into Cop's house-front: 'I will not fight thee now, Robin Snell, but wait till I come back again.
Get you in a cop's outfit, and you'll turn honest. No place here for an honest cop not with elections coming up, cobber. Well, I guess you gotta find out for yourself. Want a good room?"
