But I know why you think her good; you think her pretty, and that's enough for you; as if girls who work for their bread have any business to be pretty, which she isn't. Pretty servants, indeed! going mincing about with their fal-lal faces, as if even the flies would spoil 'em. But I know what a bad man you are now, it's no use your denying it; for didn't I overhear you talking to Mr.

"Did ever I hear such fal-lal nonsense," and Moppet's foot came down in a genuine hot-tempered stamp which made Betty start, "Betty, Betty, I will not have it pray put them back this moment;" then in the coaxing voice which she knew always carried her point, "What would Oliver and Kitty say if you were not as gay as possible to grace their wedding?

O happy Portlanders, if they only knew their own good fortune! They get up early, and go to bed early. The women are comely and sturdy, able to take care of themselves, without any fal-lal of chivalry, and the men are sedate, obliging, and industrious.
"Oh, Maryanne! you wicked girl!" said Sarah Jane. "If I'm wicked, there's two of us so, Sarah Jane! You had the money, and you gave it to Robinson for them notices of his. I know all about it now!

The governor has distinctly promised to allow me eight hundred a year off the estate, and to take us in for three months every year if we wish it.

There's never been any fal-lal between us about love, and duty, and all that.

Mother had upon her wrists something very wonderful, of the nature of fal-lal as we say, and for which she had an inborn turn, being of good draper family, and polished above the yeomanry.
"What! this all?" sniffed the old man, fingering the scent-bottle contemptuously "gal's fal-lal." He stumped below. The boy's heart was white-hot with indignation. This then was his thanks!
