Then, they would, perhaps, be formed into one great icefield, stretching from bank to bank, whereon a grand bullock-roasting festival might be held, or a fancy fair instituted, as happened in the reign of James, the king, "of ever pious memory:" that is, if my chronology be right and my memory not at fault, as may very possibly be the case. Doggy did not mind the ice a bit, however.
"How good he is I mean Captain Dresser; not you, Master Doggy!" "It is well we know what you do mean," said her aunt smiling, as Nell and Bob, with Rover dashing madly after their heels rushed into the hall to open the door. "Ah, the young flibberty-gibbets!"
It was a warm morning after a night of tempest, and the beach was strewn with seaweed after an unusually high tide. Columbus sat with a puckered brow. In his heart he wanted to be pottering about among these ocean treasures which had a peculiar fascination for his doggy soul. But a greater call was upon him, keeping him where he was.
"Show me where Timothy is, and then we'll go back home and have some nice bones. Run and find your little master, that's a good doggy!" It would be a clever philosopher who could divine Rags's special method of logic, or who could write him down either as fool or sage.
Doggy Bates, Pilkington, and Scotty Maclean had hied them immediately after breakfast to the harbour, to beg, borrow, or steal a boat and fish for mackerel; and Mrs. Stimcoe, worn out with watching, set down my faithful presence to motives of which I was shamefully innocent. In point of fact, I had lurked at home because I could not bear company.

Got up on the stoop, still petting with fond names; till master of the advantages; then exclaimed, "Leave, you thief!" planted a vindictive kick in his ribs, and went head-over-heels overboard, of course.
"Surely one dog won't eat another dog's tail," thought Vanslyperken, as he walked up to the animal; but an eye like fire, a deep growl, and exposure of a range of teeth equal to a hyena's, convinced Mr Vanslyperken that it would be wise to retreat which he did, to a respectable distance, and attempted to coax the dog. "Poor doggy, there's a dog," cried.
"Some of the 'Grass and Asphalt' sketches are wonders; some not so good. I am going to try out 'Doggy' if I can find a poodle with enough intelligence to support me. But you need not have been so mysterious, Doc, about your 'young amateur writer who seems to have some talent. Did you think I would not know it was David? Why, bless your dear, silly heart, I told him some of those stories myself.
How inexpressibly tiresome is the everlasting "Don't!" in some households. Don't get in the fire, don't play in the water, don't tease the kitty, don't trouble the doggy, don't bother the lady, don't interrupt, don't contradict, don't fidget with your brother, and don't worry me now; while perhaps in this whole tirade, not a word has been said of something to do.
Netherby is rather a "doggy" sort of man, and nice too. Suppose we take Don with us and ask him to tell us plainly whether he has anything dreadful the matter with him? Miss Millikin consented, though she did not pretend to hope much from Mr. Netherby's skill.
