"Snip snap crish crash hurry rustle bump bump Bump!" went a noise; and, in less time than it takes to tell it, down came Harry, fully twenty feet, on to the grass at his brother's and cousin's feet, where he remained, looking very white, frightened, and confused; when all at once he got up, and making a wry face, said "There, I told you I could get it."

In that ring Cain struck Abel. Sweet work, right work! No? Why then, God, mad'st thou the ring? Hands by the halyards! in top-gallant sails! Stand by to reef topsails!

Sweet work, right work! No? Why then, God, mad'st thou the ring? Stand by to reef topsails! ALL. The squall! the squall! jump, my jollies! Jollies? Lord help such jollies!

Who'd go climbing after chestnuts now?
