"That I won't. I shall have a place at my board for you, Capting; and many's the time I shall 'ope to see you under that ma'ogany." "What will the French milliner say?
Not unfrequently he would carry him home upon his back and keep him for several days at Knapp-of-Reeds, where both were prime favorites, as they were with us also. As they grew older this attachment became stronger. Many's the time I have passed there and seen Nimbus working in the tobacco and Eliab with his hammers and lasts pounding away under a tree near by.
Many's the time we have raced the dogtrains down MacKenzie River an' the canoes down the Saskatchewan!

Mary Louise watched it break watched it play for a moment about her lips like a shaft of winter sunshine. Then she spoke, shaking her head in reminiscence: "I'd thought of that, myself. In fact, I'd spoken of it to Joseph. But he had other ideas. Many's the time I would have welcomed having someone who really cared, on whom I could depend. It's been a difficult time for me, my dear.
"And I who have been such a fa fai faithful wi wi wife, and brought you such a deal of mon mon money, and always stud stud studied your interests; many's the time when you have been fast asleep that I have sat up half the night men men mending the house linen; and you have not been the same man, Roger, since that boy came!"

And still above it the cornet blared and the mourners' voices rose uproarious: "His friends were many and true-hearted, His Poll was kind and fair; And then he'd sing so blithe and jolly, Ah, many's the time and oft!

I ha' got used to this old bed here, cold as it has been many's the night wi' my good man there by the side of me."

"I think, sir, if I had a hold ov you i' the one hand, and my man there, the Lord bless him, i' the other, I could go comfortable."
"Your poor goat is dead," replied Peggy. "There she is, yonder, lying under the great corner stone; you can just see her leg. We cannot lift the stone from off her, it is so heavy. "Many's the time," said Mary, "that I have driven the poor thing away from that place; I was always afraid she would shake that great ugly stone down upon her at last."
