Jessop wept when it came to the time of her departure. "I've been here thirty-two years come Christmas!" she said. "I know it's the best for everybody, but I do feel it.
She buckled on her spurs for a new conquest, and left the already vanquished gentilities of Norton Bury to amuse themselves as they best might. "I am enchanted to meet you, Mr. Halifax; I adore 'le peuple.

Buel did not answer. He stared gloomily down at the water lapping the iron side of the motionless steamer. The frown on his brow was deep. Miss Jessop looked at him for a moment out of the corners of her eyes. Then she said, impulsively "I know that was mean. I apologise. I told you I did not like to apologise, so you may know how sorry I am.
Jessop had just been telling him about a little girl, one of our doctor's patients, who in some passionate struggle had hurt herself very much with a knife. "Let this be a warning to thee, my son, not to give way to violent passions." "Poor thing!" said I, absently. "No need to pity her; her spirit is not half broken yet.

At the top of the ladder, I stopped. I was not going back alone to that wheel. Down below, I heard the Old Man speaking. "What on earth is it now, Mr. Tulipson?" he was saying.
Oh, I don't like to take it! It's too good of you! Don't you really mind? It's all the world to me. I've been hoping to be made monitress ever since Miss Pollard spoke about reorganising the school.
