Button your jacket, Juanito; the noonday's shining through! Another sip, to the reverend father's health! His brothers run away the Abbot himself runs: but Brother Bartolomé stays. For he labours for the good of man, and that gives a clear conscience. Behold how just, after all, are the dispositions of Heaven: how blind are the wicked!
"This is a happy meeting. So! You live here, and that was little Juan who ran away as if we were going to eat him. Well, we are hungry, but not hungry enough to devour Juanito." Turning to her companions, she explained the circumstances of her first meeting with these good people, and as she talked the Garcias broke in joyfully, adding their own account of her goodness.
Juanito." Whereupon it was Florrie's turn to turn a scarlet of mortification and anger. For Juanito had soft black eyes and almost equally soft black mustaches, with probably a heart to match, and only a year ago Florrie had been busied making a hero of him when he, the blind one, took unto himself an Indian bride and in all innocence heaped shame high upon the blonde head.
Juanito was led forward by the priest. When he reached the place the executioner touched him on the arm and gave him, probably, a few instructions. The confessor, meantime, turned the victims so that they might not see the fatal blows. But, like true Spaniards, they stood erect without faltering. Clara was the first to come forward.

Doña Victorina was charmed, even conceiving some vague ideas of marrying the young man the day Don Tiburcio should die Juanito knew French and De Espadaña didn't!

Alaire looked up wonderingly, "I am deeply grateful. You overwhelm me. You are a strange man." "Dear lady, I live to serve you. Your wish is my law. How can I prove it further?"

Toward the end of the evening, having been thoughtful for ten minutes, Elmer adopted Florrie's tactics and remarked suddenly and in a voice to be heard much farther than his needed to carry: "Say, Fluff.
