But Ramona had been the adopted daughter of the Senora Ortegna, bore the Ortegna name, and had lived as foster-child in the house of the Morenos.

The more he watched, the more he saw that the question might soon have to be decided. Any hour might precipitate it.
It was the first time we had been in that chop house for several years ... it doesn't seem the same. As Mr. Wordsworth said, it is not now as it hath been of yore. But still, The homely Nurse doth all she can To make her foster-child, her Inn-mate Man, Forget the glories he hath known. "Two glasses of cider," we said to the comely serving maid.

Well, so I down-argued my conscience; and any way I took to little Christy, as he was now to be called and I loved him, all as one as if he was my own not that he was ever as well-looking as Ody, or any of the childer I had, but I never made any differ betwixt him and any of my own he can't say as I did, any how, and he has no reason to complain of my being an unnat'ral mother to him, and being my foster-child I had a right to love him as I did, and I never wronged him in any way, except in the one article of changing him at nurse, which he being an infant, and never knowing, wa" never a bit the worse for, nor never will, now.
Thomasson. glanced at him stealthily, as one gamester scrutinises another over the cards. 'She is Masterson, the porter's, foster-child, he said. 'But is it certain that she has the money? the other cried rudely. 'Is it true, man? How do you know? Is it public property? 'No, Mr. Thomasson answered, 'it is not public property.
After a short prayer of the chorus, the nurse comes and mourns for her foster-child; the chorus inspires her with a hope that he yet lives, and advises her to contrive to bring Aegisthus, for whom Clytemnestra has sent her, not with, but without his body guard. As the critical moment draws near, the chorus proffers prayers to Jupiter and Mercury for the success of the plot.
"Well done, dear foster-child. Your adopted mother, once removed, is fully satisfied with you, and very much pleased with herself, being, vicariously, the parent of a great artist."
