"No denyin' 'twould have made a preacher peevish to have you land in the pit of his stummick with them sharp hoofs of yourn.
There's heaps o' chaps come daown here from Montreal and Quebec and want to go aout: so I take 'em. Some shoots, and some harpoons, and abaout the only thing I've seen 'em ketch yet is a bad cold; but there's excitement in it, heaps of it: ain't there, Sam?" "I ain't denyin' of it," replied the latter. "What's sport for some is hard work for others. Work I calls it."
"Faith, he's drivin' his pigs to market in foine stoil; you should only hear him, cap'en!" answered the Irishman, looking out to windward. "Begorrah, ain't it blowin', though, sir! Sure, as we used to say at ould Trinity, de gustibus non est disputandum, which means, Mister Spokeshave, as yo're cockin' up your nose to hear what I'm after sayin', it's moighty gusty, an' there's no denyin' it!"
He swallers sixpenn'orth o' ale, an' saves a hap'orth o' por-ridge that's his way o' layin' by money, as I've told him many a time, an' am likely to tell him again afore the day's out. Eh, poor mon, he takes it quiet enough; there's no denyin' that."

You haven't heard me finish." "Well?" "Since this news came I've been thinkin' pretty hard over one or two things . . . over our difference, f'r instance, an' the cause of it.
Florence, who did not quite understand this, though the Captain evidently thought it full of meaning, and highly satisfactory, mildly looked to him for something more.

I made him leave his fiddle hyar ter the still, an' I be goin' ter hide his book." "No need," thought Nehemiah, scornfully. He even ventured to differ with the overbearing miller.
Jefferson Worth's character I ain't denyin', an' there's plenty in Rubio City that'll agree with you. Mebbe you has reasons for feelin' grieved. I don't sabe this here business game nohow. Mebbe you stacked the deck an' he caught you at it.
