And if you're not satisfied well, you'll have to let me know. See? Now let me go, there's a good man! I don't like the feel of your hands." He let her go in answer to the pleading of her eyes, and she slipped from his grasp like an eel, caught up the coat at her feet, and wriggled into it. Then, impishly, she faced him, buttoning it with nimble fingers the while.
Mamie whimpered a little as she replied. Mamie had a habitual whimper and a mean little face, with a wisp of flaxen hair tied with a dirty blue ribbon. "Yes, ma'am," she replied. "Jessy she growed so she couldn't git into 'em, and mummer " The boy, who was very thin, almost to emaciation, and looked consumptive, but who was impishly pert, cut in. "I had to wear Jessy's shirts," he said.
His eyes challenged her impishly. "And it was from Uncle Carl, you say?" Art hesitated, and the smile left his lips. "It it was from Carl, yes. Why?" "Oh, I just wondered." Jean was wondering why he had stopped smiling, all at once, and why he hesitated. Was he afraid he was going to contradict himself about the day or the errand?
Then, when Ursus had opportunely arrived to frighten him away as easily as the Spider frightened Miss Muffet, she had been impishly amused. In Toys at Peter Rolls's she had been vexed, irritated, but never hotly angry. The young man's persistence had not seemed serious enough to call "persecution."

Cowles was loftily pursuing her pillared way: "Latin was known to be the best study for developing the mind a long, long time " And her clicking crochet-needles impishly echoed, "A long, long time," and the odor of moth-balls got down into Carl's throat, while in the golden Olympian atmosphere at the other end of the room Gertie coyly pretended to slap the dentist's hand with a series of tittering taps.

But since you have interceded on his behalf, we'll let him off with a simple scalping." "Maybe he's afraid to come," said Lark, "for there are two of us, and we are mighty men of valor." "That's all right," Prudence answered defensively.
