Nay, and many simple folk had promised to pay somewhat of their modest store; and although my soul overflowed with thankful joy over the great sums to be given by our kith and kin, I rejoiced no less over the five pounds of farthings promised by a cordwainer, whom we had holpen some years ago when he had been sick and in debt.
Mr Vane chewed his moustache, disconsolately resigned. "Ah well! the partnership will have to go to a stranger, I suppose. I can't get on much longer without help. I hoped it might be one of my own kith and kin, but " "Don't be in a hurry, dear. I may fall in love with a pauper, and then you can have a son-in-law to help you, instead of a son." Mr Vane pushed her away with an impatient hand.
There, when she could escape notice of her kith and kin, she used privily to visit him, and continued so doing till she had borne him a number of children; and the merchants, sailing by the mountain, in their voyages over the main, heard the weeping of the children, as it were the wailing of a woman bereft of her babes, and said, 'Is there here a mother bereaved of her children? For which reason the place was named the Mountain of the Bereaved Mother."
Instead, she said in a low voice, close to his ear: "You asked me to help you, Louis. Do you know the best way to help you?" "Kith baisez-moi ah, oui, oui." "The best way to help you is to drown you. You're you're not fit to live! Oh, you're a perfect idiot!" She turned and ran down below.
Most fellows meeting that sort o' way," continued Captain Tugg, puffing reflectively, "would git chummy. The Professor's never told me a thing about himself. As fur as I know he was born full growed, right there on the rocks where my shanty's built, and ain't got kith nor kin fam'bly or enemy just as lonely as Adam was in Eden before the trouble began!
Then the lady Shamsah took formal leave of her mother and sisters and all her kith and kin; and her father fared forth with them. So the four Marids took up the litter, each by one corner, and rising under it like birds in air, flew onward with it between earth and heaven till mid-day, when the King bade them set it down and all alighted.
The low and vulgar insolence of the speakers made no impression on me; and when, in answer to my questions, they narrated the manner of his death, a fever contracted after some debauch at Oxford, I only heard the tidings, but did not notice the unfeeling tone it was conveyed in. My brother dead! the only one of kith or kindred belonging to me.
See now the end of my perfected merit, my life is done, there is for me no further body or spirit, but freedom from all ties of kith or kin! The good or evil deeds we do from first to last follow us as shadows; most exalted then the deeds of the king of the law.
The miners crossed their arms and turned deaf ears to the voice of reason and interest calling on them not to sacrifice the lives of their kith and kin who were fighting for them. This act of black treason to the country had been foreseen and foretold months before, but out of consideration for the rights of individuals was allowed to take place.
There's a proverb, sir, that says, `misfortin makes strange bed fellows, an' I 'spose it's the same proverb as makes strange messmates; anyhow, poor Tom Graham, he an' me an' his wife, we become messmates, an' of course we spun no end o' yarns about our kith and kin, so I found out how your father had treated of 'em, which to say truth I warn't s'prised at, for I've obsarved for years past that he's hard as nails, altho' he is your father, sir, an' has let many a good ship go to the bottom for want o' bein' properly found "
