A fouth o' auld knick-knackets, Rusty airn caps and jinglin' jackets, Wad haud the Lothians three, in tackets, A towmond guid; An' parritch pats, and auld saut backets, Afore the flood. Burns. The love for relics is one which will never be eradicated as long as feeling and affection are denizens of the heart.
Such a one we had a happy-go-lucky fellow from whom, they said, "you can hear the news jinglin' afore he comes within gunshot." It amused me to record the many ways he had of announcing his mission by indirection. Here is the list: "I'm jes' broguin' about." "Yes, I'm jest cooterin' around." "I'm santerin' about." "Oh, I'm jes' prodjectin' around." "Jist traffickin' about."
But I know some of them little fires." "We must make one some day. Won't it be fun!" "It sure is when a fella ain't hustlin' to get grub. That poem sounds better after grub, at night, when the stars are shinin' and the horses grazin' and mebby the pack-horse bell jinglin' 'way off somewhere. Then one of them little fires is sure friendly." "Have you been reading this winter?" "Oh, some.
But one day they thought they had me asleep in the room-corner, and the two of them was colloguin' away at the table, so all of suddint Tishy whips out me poor father's bag, that I knew the look of right well, when he used to keep his 'baccy in it, and down she slaps it, and it jinglin' wid money.
She give her silk dress a swish to one side, so! and then she cocked her head over sideways like a bird, and then her hands, all jinglin' over with rings, went a-whizzin' up and down them black and white teeth just like sixty!"
I want to see what the little chap 'll do with this rattler; these blamed little bells set up a jinglin' noise every time the hack struck a snag." During this monologue the machine-agent was silent, a dark frown of indecision on his face. As for his wife, she looked as if she had bartered her child's birthright for something that had disagreed with her mental digestion.
You're on the wrong tack, Mister, 'deed you are. There's another guess a comin' to you. It ain't money we want this time, no, siree! Money don't cut no ice this trip, though it is a mighty handy thing to have a jinglin' in your jeans ain't it? No, it ain't the "sinews," as Jim McGubbin calls it; it's you, Mr. Holloway; it's you, sir! "'Me, Mr. Sale? "'Yes, sir; you.
The Senator smiled a trifle apologetically. "There's more of it. But po'try ain't just in my line. Once in a while I bust loose on po'try that is, my kind of po'try. And I want to say that we sure clattered down from the Butte and the Blue in the old days, with our rein chains jinglin', thinkin' some of us that Arizona was ours to fare-ye-well.
'Twan't no old greasy whaler's cabin, nor no packet-ship neither. There wan't many craft like her on the seas in them days. She was fixed up inside more like a gentleman's yacht is now. Merchantmen in them days didn't have their Turkey carpets and their colored wine-glasses jinglin' in the racks.
Funny thing that bunch of punchers what started me lookin' for that there hotel that time they come jinglin' up last week. Didn't know I was the boss till one of 'em grins after sizin' me up and says er well, two three words what kids hadn't ought to hear, and then, 'It's him, boys! Then I steps out and says, 'It is, gents. Come right in and have dinner and it won't cost you fellas a cent.
