"Well, I wish you'd go down and bring me up a tart, a cup of custard and a spoonful of pear sauce. Sitting up so late makes me as hungry as a wolf! Come, Patty, go along!" "Deed, miss, I'se 'fraid!" whimpered the little maid. "Afraid of what, you goose?" "'Fraid of meeting of a ghose in the dark places!" "Pooh! you can take the light with you!

She humped herself close up to me. She had run out the way she was, with nothing on her but her kilt; and she was all wet with the dews and the sea on the black beach, and shook straight on with cold and the terror of the dark and the devils.
