He had not gone very far before he heard a queer buzzing sound, and a sort of splashing in the water and a tiny voice cried: "Help! Help! Save me! I am drowning!" "My goodness me sakes alive and some horse radish lollypops!" cried the bunny uncle. "Some one drowning? I don't see any water around here, though I do hear some splashing. Who are you?" he cried.
The key is turning in the door, and sounds of evil omen issue through the keyhole sturdy 'let me outs, and 'I will goes, mixed with shrill cries on May and on me from Lizzy, piercing through a low continuous harangue, of which the prominent parts are apologies, chilblains, sliding, broken bones, lollypops, rods, and gingerbread, from Lizzy's careful mother. 'Don't scratch the door, May!
"The only names I have are names of candy, and I'm sure you don't want any of those, do you? There is peppermint and spearmint and cinnamon and lemon drops and cocoanut kisses and lollypops and jaw-breakers and tootsie rolls and chocolate do you want any of those names?" "No," replied the little pig boy, "I don't think I like any of those names for myself.
She manages everybody in the place, her schoolmistress included; turns the wheeler's children out of their own little cart, and makes them draw her; seduces cakes and lollypops from the very shop window; makes the lazy carry her, the silent talk to her, the grave romp with her; does anything she pleases; is absolutely irresistible.
In this way only had he written, and each of these sweet silly songs of love had been as full of honey as words could make it. But he had never yet written to her, on a full sheet of paper, a sensible positive letter containing thoughts and facts, as men do write to women and women also to men, when the lollypops and candied sugar-drops of early love have passed away.

"This is too bad!" exclaimed the sailor, "Wango, behave yourself! You are a bad monkey! Up with you!" Wango jumped up on his master's shoulder, and hung his head. I really think he was ashamed of what he had done.

"He hid under the counter until he saw me open the showcase for you, Bunny. Then he put in his paw, and grabbed the lollypops." "Yes, that's what he did I saw him," said Sue, who was now taking the paper off her candy.
"What is?" asked Uncle Wiggily. "Now all the buttons have come off my shoes!" said the little goat girl, sadly. "I don't see how I can go on to the party and dance, with no buttons on my shoes. They'll be slipping off all the while." "So they will," spoke Uncle Wiggily. "Shoes without buttons are like lollypops without sticks, you can't do anything with them."
The scene was indescribable for chaos: there were men locked in deadly combat for the sake of Empire and Fatherland, and here were the very children they were fighting for some dying for revelling in a children's paradise of toys balloons, soldiers, rackets, and lollypops, as if it had all been arranged for their special benefit.
There are plums to buy for the plum pudding, and the candy and nuts and oranges and figs and dates and the sour milk lollypops and everything that Santa Claus hasn't time to bring."
