I'm seeking lodgings, Mrs. Moneylaws, and seeing your paper at the door-light, and your son's face at the window, I came in.

Charge me what you like, and I'll pay beforehand, any hand, whatever's convenient."
"Then, for God's sake, leave off attending me, Talbot," said the Squire. "You must be a rare ignoramus not to see that your treatment is killing me out and out. It's fresh air I want, and plenty of it, and no more fal-lals. Is it in my grave you'd have me in a fortnight's time? You get out of this, and leave me to Mother Nature and the nursing of my Irish colleen." This was the final straw. Mrs.
I've seen the Queen mysel' walked all the road to Liverpool when I didn't know no better, an' I see her, an' hoo were nought but a wumman i' black! Theer now, I'll tak' my oath on 't! Hoo hadn't no crown on, nor yet no blue ribbon, an' none o' they fal-lals o' medals, an' nought i' her hand. Hoo was jest an ord'nary wumman same 's ony other wumman.
"But it's dishonest for ye to never even perpose ter make good what ye lost. If you'd lost a sack of grain for a neighbor ye'd made it up to him; wouldn't ye?" "What's thet gotter do with a lot of foolish fal-lals an' rigamagigs belonging to a gal that I've taken in " "To help us. And she does help us," declared the old woman, quickly. "She more'n airns her keep, Jabez. Ye know she does."
Go, or the saddle will be wet before you ride off" "Then I'm to tell Hoogstraten to expect a letter." "No. Such things can't be written. Besides, it won't be necessary. Tell my father I won't stay with aunt, and want to go home. Good-bye, Nico. Your riding-boots and green cloth doublet are much more becoming than those silk fal-lals."
All at once he said, as if speaking the thoughts which tied my tongue: "To my mind the young woman is not improved by these furbelows and fal-lals my wife has put upon her. What wit or reason is there in a homely, sensible little maiden like this a pretty flower growing, as God designed it to, in modest sweetness on its own soil being garnished out in the stale foppery of the last London season?"
I sent her a box of clothes two smart everyday dresses, an evening dress, and no end of fal-lals. She wrote to thank me, I suppose?" "She wrote to me, dear," said Mrs. Martin, trembling a good deal. "She was very much obliged to you." "And well she ought to be. Did she clearly understand that I sent her the things that you had nothing to do with them?" "Oh yes, yes," said Mrs. Martin.
His virtuous resolutions had yielded to the air of Paris; he had fallen into evil ways again, and he now assailed his wife and child with the vilest epithets, which did not seem to shock Nana, for they could fall from her tongue on occasion with facile glibness. "I want my soup," cried Coupeau, "and you two fools are chattering over those fal-lals!
