'Whose? asked Jonas, drily. 'My eldest girl's, Mr Jonas, replied Pecksniff, with moistening eyes. 'My dear Cherry's; my staff, my scrip, my treasure, Mr Jonas. A hard struggle, but it is in the nature of things! I must one day part with her to a husband. I know it, my dear friend. I am prepared for it. 'Ecod! you've been prepared for that a pretty long time, I should think, said Jonas.
"Ecod, your worship, wot time ave I for legerdemain? Wif your elp, now, I'd be a fine gentleman-journalist, stead of a noverworked ack." "Ha," she said genially, busy with the toothpick, "youll find enough respectable laboratory mechanics eager to cooperate. How long will it be before they shoot, do you know?" Gootes shook his head and I strained my eyes toward the grass.
'Do you know, Mr Jonas, said Pecksniff, 'that I think your father is don't let me alarm you breaking?

"Then why did ye not send word to me at once, you fool?" "Because I was concerned only to stop my eyes from burning," answered Mr. Green, in a towering rage at finding reproof where he had come in quest of sympathy. "I have come to you at the first moment, damn you!" he burst out, in full rebellion. "And you'll use me civilly now that I am come, or ecod! it'll be the worse for your lordship."
Then get your warrant when I give the word and execute it one fine night when Caryll happens to be closeted with Everard.

"Well," Tom Tot admitted, "as you're makin' a p'int of it, I'm fair on print, but poor on writin'." That I will," he added, recklessly, "agin the world." Tom Tot yielded somewhat to this blandishment. He took the proffered letter. "I isn't denyin', Skipper Tommy," he said, "that I'm able t' make out your name on this here letter." "Ecod!" cried Skipper Tommy, throwing up his hands. "I knowed it!"
