"I cannot spake about it, nor think of it, John," said he, after some time, "but we must do what we can for her." "If anything happens her," said the mother, "I'd never get over it. Oh marciful Savior! how could we live widout her?"
Well, your honour, my father was asy enough until the sperit kem past him; so close, God be marciful to us all, that the smell iv the sulphur tuk the breath clane out iv him; an' with that he tuk such a fit iv coughin', that it al-a-most shuk him out iv the chair he was sittin' in.
"But, marciful Saver!" he cried out, jumping up on a suddent, "look behind you, your Holiness, I'm blest but the room's on fire!" Sure enough the candle fell down that minit, and was near setting fire to the windy-curtains, and there was some bustle, as you may suppose, getting things put to rights.

I ain't none afeard o' your nerve," this to Richard and me "leastwise, not when it comes to fair and square sojer-fighting. But this here onfall has got to be like the smiting o' the 'Malekites root and branch; and if ye're tempted to be anywise marciful, jest ricollect that for the sake o' them wimmen-folks we've got to have these hosses!"
'Tain't fittin', to my notion, to see a modest young gal a-mekin' a show uv herse'f, an' the Lawd nevah intended it, nuthah. Ef you're 'lected to salvation an' I believe you air, fur he's a marciful an' gracious God, an' you're a nice, innercent, well-behaved gal you kin be called in a quiet way; an' when he does call, whut you got to do is to heah an' obey.
