"I see now why you wanted me to tell Cecil, and what you meant by 'some other source. You knew that you had told Miss Lavish, and that she was not reliable." It was Miss Bartlett's turn to wince. "However," said the girl, despising her cousin's shiftiness, "What's done's done. You have put me in a most awkward position. How am I to get out of it?" Miss Bartlett could not think.
"Why, my lard, as I was going past the Royal Exchange I meets Billy. 'Billy, says I, 'will you sky a copper? 'Done, says he; 'Done, says I; and done and done's enough between two jantlemen. With that I ranged them fair and even with my hook-em-snivey up they go. 'Music! says he 'Skulls! says I; and down they come, three brown mazards. 'By the holy! you flesh'd 'em, says he.
Says Lucy demurely: "Now you know why I read History, and that sort of books." "Do I?" replies Berry. "Belike I do. Since what you done's so good, my darlin', I'm agreeable to anything. A fig for all the lords! They can't come anigh a baby. You may read Voyages and Travels, my dear, and Romances, and Tales of Love and War. You cut the riddle in your own dear way, and that's all I cares for."
An' you'll never come so close bein' a widow again, Mrs. Fyfe, an' not be. That bullet was meant for Jack, I figure. He was sittin' down. Billy was standin' right behind him watchin' the logs go through. Whoever he was, he shot high, that's all. There, mother, don't cry. That don't help none. What's done's done." Stella turned and walked up to the house, stunned.
Who got her into the box- factory, I should like to know?" "I did!" said 'Manda Grier, turning sharply on him, "and you kept her there; and between us we've killed her." "How have I kept her there, I should like to know?" "'F you'd done's she wanted you should, she might 'a' been at some pleasant place in the country the mount'ns, or somewhere 't she'd been ov'r her cough by this time. But no!
Jim became rather interested in Long. The man was an amusing blackguard, and took the 'gruellings' that occasional manual lapses led him into with a placidity that amounted almost to quiet enjoyment, and tickled Done's sense of humour immensely.
I must say I prefer the day light after all. Yes! that's the drawing-room. What's done's done and more than done, for it can't be done again!"

The storm had ceased, but the snow lay much deeper, and all the world seemed folded in a lucent death, of which the white mounds were the graves.
"I looked at him astounded, all at sea. "'Representing Babbolini's, he added, feeling in his pocket for a card. 'Course, any business done's between ourselves. We have a big connection and can always give satisfaction. "So you see how the mere contact of these people contaminates.
Macdougal thinks he is an earl at least, and has woven quite a romance about him. She will be glad to see you. Done's mind had flown to Burton's estimate of Ryder, and Lucy's evident admiration of, him gave him a little uneasiness. 'Is Mrs. Macdougal of Boobyalla quite well? he asked. 'Quite. But you must not laugh at her. One gets to like her. 'If one is quite determined.
"Done," says the gauger; and done and done's enough between two gentlemen. The gauger was cast, and my master won the bet, and thought he'd won a hundred guineas, but by the wording it was adjudged to be only a tester that was his due by the exciseman. It was all one to him; he was as well pleased, and I was glad to see him in such spirits again.
