Ford pushed past her in the doorway without speaking; the smoke told its own urgent tale and made words superfluous. She turned and followed him, choking over the pungent smoke. "Oh, where's Chester?" she wailed. "The whole garret's on fire and I can't carry Phenie and she's asleep and can't walk anyway!"
I followed him to his chamber, and declared what had happened that afternoon of Master Garret's escape. Then he sent for one Master Sumner and Master Bets, fellows and canons there. In the meantime he gave me a very godly exhortation, praying God to give us all the wisdom of the serpent and the harmlessness of doves, for we should shortly have much need thereof.

I stood just within the door and heard all. The prior asked him of Garret's visit the day before, and he confessed the latter had been with him, but had quickly gone forth again.
Peggy Barbour saw a double nest with one hole last year; it must have been an old pair and a young maintaining a joint roof-tree. Yes, of course, these are jay's feathers." Another resource which Leslie found within Hector Garret's perception was that of music.
