There was little breeze this morning in the quiet woods, but that little blew from where she stood straight toward the spot where the cubs were frollicking. She must circle, come out down yonder behind a pile of rocks, slip behind the great cedar right at the base of the cliffs, and edge on from there on her hands and knees. But she paused a moment, fascinated, watching them.
It was porpoises porpoises aglow with phosphorescent light. They presently collected in a wild and magnificent jumble under the bows, and there they played for an hour, leaping and frollicking and carrying on, turning summersaults in front of the stem or across it and never getting hit, never making a miscalculation, though the stem missed them only about an inch, as a rule.
The Meeting House records leave no room for doubt as to the opinion held by the Society of Friends upon the matter of play. An account is given elsewhere of the discipline of the Meeting in its struggle against immorality and "frollicking."
In the absence of attention he had remained a long time unconscious. Even now the hapless midshipman whose frollicking had been the cause of the disaster, did not immediately regain his full senses. "Why, we're all in the water," he remarked after a while. "Yes," assented Darrin, trying to speak cheerfully.

No more is it strange that Aguara, engrossed with the subject of conversation between him and the vaqueano, leaves them free to their frollicking. Nothing occurs to change the behaviour either of the two who are in front, or those following, until the horses of the former have forded the stream, and stepped out on the bank beyond.
Major Crawford rejoined his wife presently. "The two Chichester girls to see if the children are sure to go to the Van Ordens, though I think their eagerness is most for Will," laughing. "His gay time will soon be over. Zay's as well. Next week school will begin, and Marguerite must come under rules. The chief one is that there is no frollicking until Friday evening, no holiday until Saturday."
