I will bring the work home as soon as I have finished it." "But suppose you should happen to forget our street and number? What then?" "Oh no, I shall not do that. I know the place very well," was the innocent reply. "No, but that won't do, Lizzy. We must have the name and place of residence of every man, woman, and child who work for us. It is our rule, and we never depart from it."
With Bewick on my knee, I was then happy: happy at least in my way. I feared nothing but interruption, and that came too soon. The breakfast- room door opened. "Boh! Madam Mope!" cried the voice of John Reed; then he paused: he found the room apparently empty. "Where the dickens is she!" he continued. "Lizzy! Georgy!
"You may be able to disguise your real feelings, but I cannot. Whatever emotion passes over my mind is seen in my face and discovered in my tone of voice. All who know me see me as I am." And yet, notwithstanding this affirmation, Margaret Hubert did not, at all times, display her real feelings. And her friend Lizzy Edgar was right in assuming that she was by no means indifferent to Mr. Clinton.
And at last, with the weak tears running down my cheeks, I told her of how it could not be: that I should be wronging her, and that she must think no more of me, only as a dear friend; when there is that amount of folly in this world, that my heart swelled, and a great ball seemed rising in my throat, and I choked again and again, as those arms clung tighter and tighter round my neck, and Lizzy called me her hero, and her brave lad who had saved her life again and again; and asked me to take her to my heart, and keep her there; for her to try and be to me a worthy loving wife one that would never say a bitter word to me as long as she lived.
Then came recollections of later days, when John was a young man, and Lizzy still a little girl, when long talks banished turkeys and apples and sliding, when new books or sleigh-rides crowded out the old games, when the two days of John's yearly visit were half-spent in the leafless, sunny woods, gathering mosses and acorn-cups, delicate fern leaves, and clusters of fire-moss, and red winter-green berries, for the pretty frames and baskets Lizzy's skilful fingers fabricated, when he shook hands at coming and going, instead of kissing her; but it seemed just the same, somehow.
I am sincerely grieved for him and Mrs. F., but no one can throw any blame on them. Our distress, my dear Lizzy, is very great. My father and mother believe the worst, but I cannot think so ill of him.

"Ye speak as a Jew was na a man; has not a Jew eyes, if ye please?" Lizzy Johnstone. "Ay, has he! and the awfuest lang neb atween 'em." Christie. "Has not a Jew affections, paassions, organs?" Jean. "Na! Christie; thir lads comes fr' Italy!" Christie. "If you prick him, does he not bleed? if you tickle him, does na he lauch?" "I never kittlet a Jew, for my pairt sae I'll no can tell ye."
"I wrote it, then; but when I went to give it to her, my heart failed me. "'Lizzy, I said, 'you shall not do this thing. "She looked so childish and pitiful, standing there!
