Wall, I immegetly turned the subject round and talked wildly and almost incoherently on politicks. I praised the tariff amost beyond its deserts. I brung up our foreign relations, and spoke well on 'em. I tackled revenues and taxation, and hurried him from one to the other on 'em, almost wildly, to get the idee out of his head. And I congratulated myself on havin' succeeded.

Immegetly he smiled warmly, and wuz very affectionate in his demeener to me for as much as two hours and a half. Sech is the might of human love. His hurryin' me over them swelterin' and blisterin' streets, and showin' me all the beauty and glory of the world, and his conversation had no effect, skercely on my mind.

Wall, it wuz that very afternoon, almost immegetly after dinner, that Josiah Allen invited me warmly to go with him to the Roller Coaster. And I compromised the matter by his goin' with us first to St. Christina's Home, and then, I told him, I would proceed with him to the place where he would be. They wuz both on one road, nigh to each other, and he consented after some words.

"Oh no," sez she, "it is the water." "Yes," sez I, in a very polite way, I will be polite, "the water is good, first rate." But at that very minute, word come to her that she had company, and she sot sail homewards immegetly, and to once. And now I don't care anything for the last word, some wimmen do, but I don't.

But as we went up the stairway into our room, perfectly tuckered out, both on us, I sez to him, in weary axents, "That picture wuz cheap enough, for the money, wuzn't it?" He groaned aloud. And sech is my love for that man, that the minute I heard that groan I immegetly added, "Though I hadn't no idee of buyin' it, Josiah."

He see her onbeknown to her one day, when she wuz a writin' a poem on one of the benches in the park. "A Poem on a Bench!" She wuz a settin' on the bench, and a writin' about it, she was a writin' on the bench in two different ways. Curius, haint it? But to resoom. He immegetly fell in love with her.
