"They'd better go to bed," said Marilla, who thought it was the easiest way to dispose of them. "Dora will sleep with me and you can put Davy in the west gable. You're not afraid to sleep alone, are you, Davy?" "No; but I ain't going to bed for ever so long yet," said Davy comfortably. "Oh, yes, you are." That was all the much-tried Marilla said, but something in her tone squelched even Davy.
We are settled here as well as possible; and after a long interruption, full of pain and unrest, I am once more able to think of the execution of my great artistic plans for the future. After this final reunion with my much-tried wife, nothing could have given me greater pleasure than to learn about the produce of your artistic activity.
It ought to have been very miserable, but it was not; there was a peace about it which comforted the much-tried girl, and which she often hugged to her heart in some of the dark days which were close at hand. "Now, chil'en," said Grannie, on the evening of that day, "you two will please go off early in the morning and leave me the last in the old house."
Ogren and her two children a girl baby, healthy in every way, had been born at P'ing-yang-fu on December 6, arrived at Han-kow, where everyone strove to show kindness to the much-tried widow.

The voice of Bulgaria now made itself heard. There was but one cry for the return of Prince Alexander.

For Juliette de Gemosac seemed to be an illustration of the fact, known to many much-tried parents, that one is never too young to know one's mind. "There is a thunder-storm coming from the sea," was Jean's only comment.
For the small children there were, for example, the History of Two Children in the Wood, The Pleasant History of Jack Horner and Tom Thumb. Most likely it was only the pennies of much-tried mothers and fathers that were spent for A Timely Warning to Rash and Disobedient Children. The chapman or peddler we may well believe did not stand silently looking on as he disposed of his stock.

Tommy's attitude to him had from the first been one of polite tolerance, and Mr. Babington's bump of humour being imperfectly developed, he in return regarded his charge with something like horror.
