The next day came, but brought neither strength of body nor of mind with it.
Gien ye forget them, there's nae houp for them, but the same deith 'ill keep on swallowin' at them upo' sea an' shore." "Ye speyk the trowth as I ha'e spoken't till mysel', Peter. Noo, hearken: will ye sail wi' me the nicht for Lon'on toon?" The fisherman was silent a moment then answered, "I wull, my lord; but I maun tell my wife."
"Courage and patience, my friend," he said, as we were slowly quitting the stable. "Thees horse is yonge, and has not yet the habitude of the person. It shall be as easy as to fall away from a log. A leetle more of this chin music which your friend Enriquez possesses, and some tapping of the head and neck, and you are there. You are ever the right side up. Houp la!
"You know, for a moment, I had the rare emotion of feeling and fearing that I was being eloped with." A pop interrupted. She turned to a man at her elbow. "Only half a glass, please, and fill it with water." She returned to Paliser, who was opposite. "I had been thinking of something.

While Julien, dazed and bewildered, was seeking a reply, she passed quickly to the next group, going from one to another, and watching with interest the placing of the bouquet on the summit of the hut. One of the men brought a ladder and fastened the flowers to a spike. When they were securely attached and began to nod in the air, he waved his hat and shouted: "Hou, houp!"

Dr. Anderson had urged upon him the necessity of being able at least to speak English; and he had been trying to modify the antique Saxon dialect they used at Rothieden with the newer and more refined English.
Agnes came, and opened cautiously, for there were occasionally such beings as tramps about. "Eh! it's you?" she cried with a glad voice, when she saw the shape of Cosmo in the dimness.

"The maister's gane wantin' a licht," muttered Grizzie; "I houp he winna see onything." It was an enigmatical utterance, and angered Lord Mergwain. "What the deuce should he see, when he has got to feel his way with his hands?" he snarled.
"I've got a wale or two, that's all," said Alec. "Weel, I houp it'll be a lesson to ye." "To Mr Malison, you should have said, Mr Bruce. I am perfectly satisfied, for my part." His mother was surprised to hear him speak like a grown man, as well as annoyed at his behaviour to Bruce, in whose power she feared they might one day find themselves to their cost. But she said nothing.
