Other-wise our power would not be believed in. No, my little Aglaia, all our Godchildren start from the point you spoke of 'caeteris paribus, as those dingy black lawyers say all other things being equal it is a question now of bestowing extra superfine Fairy gifts."
Our numerous godchildren were not in school because, as we have only lived here three years, they are not yet old enough to share in the blessings of education. I stand godmother to the girls, and the Man of Wrath to the boys, and as all the babies are accordingly named after us the village swarms with tiny Elizabeths and Boys of Wrath.
'Top off! cried the mouse, 'that is a very odd and uncommon name, is it a usual one in your family? 'What does that matter, said the cat, 'it is no worse than Crumb-stealer, as your godchildren are called. Before long the cat was seized by another fit of yearning. She said to the mouse: 'You must do me a favour, and once more manage the house for a day alone.
So she steeled her nerves to laugh at her friends commiserations and to make the marriage of her godchildren one of the season's successes. It would certainly be an interesting addition to her museum of domestic dramas. There was one person whom Lady Everington was determined to pump for information on that wedding-day, and had drawn into the net of her invitations for this very purpose.
She had scores of royal godchildren; turned numberless wicked people into beasts, birds, millstones, clocks, pumps, boot jacks, umbrellas, or other absurd shapes; and, in a word, was one of the most active and officious of the whole college of fairies. But after two or three thousand years of this sport, I suppose Blackstick grew tired of it.
Such fame is the only kind worth having. A flight of fifteen minutes brought me within sight of the large white circle which marks the landing-field at R . J. B. had not yet arrived. This was a great disappointment, for we had planned a race home. I was anxious about him, too, knowing that the godfather of all adventurers can be very stern at times, particularly with his aerial godchildren.

We would enclose opera tickets with a note asking her to go and have a good time, signed, 'Your Fairy Godmother, and with a postscript something like this, 'If you cannot use them, hand them on to another of my godchildren. Don't you think she would accept them?" Under the spell of those lovely, serious eyes, the Candy Man rather thought she would.
He followed it over a level tract of country miles in extent, and found it at last in a ditch, nose down, tail in air, like a duck hunting bugs in the mud. This story loses nine tenths of its interest for want of Mac's pungent method of telling it. One of the bona-fide godchildren of Chance was Millard.
