"But don't tell him what it's for; you can ask him without that." "A nice little young pig," said Sam, "such as you'd keep all the summer, and fat in the winter." "Mind, it ain't for you, Purday," cried Hal. "Never fear my being disappointed, sir," said the free-spoken Purday, with a twinkle of his eye, which Hal understood so well that he burst out,
It is said, 'the grossness of the old play-writers was their misfortune, not their crime. It was the fashion of the age. It is not our fashion, certainly; but they meant no harm by it.

We have cast down the Red Pillar, and the White and the Black also; and it is no longer a place of torment and fear, and cozening and murder; but the very thralls are happy and free-spoken.
