Insie had wonderfully pretty eyebrows, and a pretty way of raising them, and letting more light into her bright hazel eyes. "No, I never seemed to hate you; though I often was put out, because I could never make your face come well. I was thinking of you always, but I could not see you. Now tell me whether you have been like that."
You take the best of everything, without a word about it, as gently as great ladies do. I thought that you would want me to eat the nicest pieces; but instead of that, you have left me bones and drumsticks." He gave such a melancholy look at these that Insie laughed quite merrily. "I wanted to see you practice chivalry," she said. "Well, never mind; I shall know another time.
Insie turned round with a rosy blush, brighter than the brightest fire-wood, and tried to look at Pet as if she had never even dreamed of such a being. Pet drew hard upon his heart, and stood bewildered, tranced, and dazzled. He had never seen Insie in-doors before, which makes a great difference in a girl; and the vision was too bright for him.
I suppose you live in that queer little place down there?" "The house is quite good enough for me and my father and mother and brother Maunder. Good-by; and please never to come here again." "You don't understand me. I have made you cry. Oh, Insie, let me have hold of your hand. I would rather make anybody cry than you. I never liked anybody so before." "Cry, indeed! Who ever heard me cry?
He was proud, as need be, of his station in life; but he reasoned if the process of his mind was reason that being so exalted, he might please himself; that his wife would rise to his rank, instead of lowering him; that her father was a man of education and a gentleman, although he worked with his own hands; and that Insie was a lady, though she went to fill a pitcher.
Would you like to make me miserable, and a great deal more wicked than I ever was before? Do you hate me so much as all that, Insie?" "No. You have been very kind to me. Only my father would be angry, I am sure; and my brother Maunder is dreadful. They all go away every other Friday, and that is the only free time I have." "Every other Friday! What a long time, to be sure!
As a matter of fact, I had a most exciting time, and am dying to tell you the "insie" story. But the one I sent the papers must serve. But he took the cigar and gave me his blessing. I am now burning candles to St. Rita. What worried me the MOST was how worried YOU would be; and I begged Palmer not to send the story of our first arrest. But other people told of it, and he had to forward it.
The landlord can do that, according to law." "If you care at all for me," said Insie, looking as if she had known him for ten years, "you will do exactly what I tell you.
"I gave him some water one day," said Insie, "when he was terribly thirsty. But he seems to know you, father, better than me. He wants you to do something, and he scorns me."
"Lancelot Yordas Carnaby," said Bart, with the smile of a gray-beard at young love's dream, "has done us the honor to fall in love, for ever and ever, with our little Insie. And the worst of it is that she likes him." "What an excellent idea!" his old friend answered; "I was sure there was something of that sort going on. Now betwixt love and war we shall make a man of Pet."
