"To begin with," he said, when his good things were displayed, "you must remember that nothing is more vulgar than to be hungry. A gentleman may have a tremendous appetite, but a lady never." "But why? but why? That does seem foolish. I have read that the ladies are always helped first. That must be because of their appetites." "Insie, I tell you things, not the reasons of them.
Then Insie knew that here was a mortal boy, not dead, but sadly wounded; and she drew her short striped kirtle down, because her shapely legs were bare. As their eyes met, his insolent languor fell for he generally awoke from these weak lapses into a slow persistent rage and wonder and unknown admiration moved something in his nature that had never moved before.
I do implore you, for my sake, to go, or it will be too late. Never, never, will you see me again, unless you do what I beseech of you." "I will not stir one peg, unless you put your arms round my neck and kiss me, and say that you will never have anybody else." Insie blushed deeply, and her bright eyes flashed with passion not of loving kind.
But, my dear, as you make such a point of it, I will promise not to interfere, unless there is any attempt to do wrong, and intrap a poor boy who does not know his own mind. Insie is his equal by birth and education, and perhaps his superior in that which comes foremost nowadays the money. Dream not that he is a great catch, my dear; I know more of that matter than you do.
They are coming to sit on that bench; I shall hear every word they say, and learn some of their secrets that I never could get out of Insie one bit of. But I wonder who that other fellow is?"

Bert was terrified, for she thought it was a wolf, not having found it in her power to believe that there could be such a desert place without wolves in the winter-time. "Why, Saracen!" said Insie; "I declare it is! You poor old dog, what can have brought you out this weather?"
"My friend, you ought to be hungry," said Bert of the Gill, as he was proud to call himself; "after your exploit you should be fed. Your vanquished foe will sit next to you. Insie, you are harassed in mind by the countenance of our old friend Master John Smithies. He has met with a little mishap never mind the rising generation is quick of temper.
"Where do you come from, and what do you want?" asked Bert, as the dog, soon beginning to recover, looked round at the door, and then back again at him, and jerked up his chin impatiently, "Insie, you seem to know this fine fellow. Where have you met him? And whose dog is he? Saracen! Why, that is the name of the dog who is everybody's terror at Scargate."
Maunder, go and fetch the other shovel. There is somebody lost in the snow, I believe. We must follow this dog immediately." "Not till you both have had much plenty food," the mother said: "out upon the moors, this bad, bad night, and for leagues possibly to travel. My son and my husband are much too good. You bad dog, why did you come, pestilent? But you shall have food also. Insie, provide him.
