From what I had observed on board the steamer where, methought, Mamie waited on him with her limpid eyes I encouraged the bashful lover to proceed; and the very next evening he was carrying me to call on his affianced. "You must befriend her, Loudon, as you have always befriended me," he said pathetically. "By saying disagreeable things?
The waters from these mountain reaches had cut a channel for themselves known as Little Yosemite Valley, where pour the two wonderful cataracts known as Nevada Falls and Vernal Falls. Their deep roar came up from the valley. Mamie felt that she would be content to watch that scene the whole day through.
"Then what is it, Mamie?" "Lemme git my bref, suh, an' you hole yo'ne whiles I tell you! She say to me, she say: 'Is you 'quainted Maje' Vanrevel, Mamie? s' she, an' I up'n' ansuh, 'Not to speak wid, but dey ain; none on 'em I don' knows by sight, an' none betterer dan him, I say.
He reached the bottom of the garden without observing any sign of the lonely invalid. He looked up and down the cabbage rows, and through the long perspective of pea-vines, without result.

"Well, they've got to work in a shoe-shop," said Ellen, with a short laugh.
Stay quiet here in your Molly's lap and you will be well in just a few minutes," I said with a smile I hid in his yellow mop as I kissed the drake-tail kiss-spot. "Where's Mamie?" I thought to ask with the greatest apprehension. "In the garden eating cup-cake Jane baked hot for both of us," he answered, snuggling close and much comforted.
Norbert was an excessively fat boy, and at the present moment looked as patient as the blind. But he asked Ariel if she was "engaged for the next dance," and, Mamie having flitted away, stood disconsolately beside her, waiting for the music to begin. Ariel was grateful for him. "I think you must be very good-natured, Mr. Flitcroft," she said, with an air of raillery.
