The times be troublous; and if more mischief's like to overtake the Colonel, though I shall be sorry enough to see it, I shan't be sorry to know thou art out of it. Art thou glad to come back or not, my lass?" "I don't know, Granny," said Jenny. Kate laughed. "Have you had your fling and come down, Jenny?" she asked; "or haven't you had fling enough? which is it?"
If it were mischief for mischief's sake, I could punish her, but her intentions are good " "Good intentions don't amount to much in her case. A good trouncing might make her think a little more." "I can't whip her, Faith, but I'll go up and lecture her good. I believe that will be more effective than harshness."
"As it is, I bet a dollar you've put your foot in it, my lady. I warned you of that blackguard.... There! The mischief's done; we won't row over it. One moment." He begged it with a wave of his hand; stood pondering briefly, fumbled for his watch, found and consulted it. "It's the barest chance," he muttered. "Perhaps we can make it." "What are you going to do?" asked the woman.
If I'm going to take it, the mischief's done." Millicent's quick mind travelled. Michael had been with this sick saint the night before. He, Michael, might be a carrier of the disease, even if he were immune from it himself. And she had been fool enough to throw herself into his arms! Oh, what a fool! She might even now be incubating the horrible, loathsome disease. She was soul-sick.

He has his vanities as well as Miss Thorpe, and the chief difference is, that, having a stronger head, they have not yet injured himself. If the effect of his behaviour does not justify him with you, we had better not seek after the cause." "Then you do not suppose he ever really cared about her?" "I am persuaded that he never did." "And only made believe to do so for mischief's sake?"
"Is everything packed up?" he asked in a querulous voice. Then his eyes fell on Teddy the elf. He scowled until his little pin-pricks of eyes almost disappeared. "Ugh! there's one of those nasty gamblesome elves," he said. "Now mischief's sure to follow." "I'm not a gamblesome elf!" cried Teddy. "Yes you are!" said the withered old fairy. "You needn't tell me!
If Barto shall be found to have acted without just grounds, I am certain that Count Medole' he turned suavely to the nobleman 'will withdraw confidence from him; and that will be equivalent to a rope's-end for Barto. We shall see him to-night at your house? 'He will be there, Medole said. 'But the harm's done; the mischief's done!
I mean an opinion of your own?" The old man scrutinized Hewitt's face sharply. "If you'd like me to look into the matter " Hewitt began. "Eh? Oh, look into it! Well, I can't commission you, you know matter for the police. Mischief's done. Police doing very well, I think must be Goujon. But look about the place, certainly, if you like.
"You are mighty good, truly," cried she, "to come when all the mischief's over." She then entered,-in such a condition!-entirely covered with mud, and in so great a rage, it was with difficulty she could speak. We all expressed our concern, and offered our assistance-except the Captain, who no sooner beheld her than he burst out into a loud laugh.
