Out th' window, says I. Just thin Dorsey's nanny-goat that died next year put her head through th' dure. 'Can't I make ye up a nice supper? says Dorsey. 'Do ye like paper? he says. 'Would ye like to help desthroy a Dutchman, he says, 'an' perform a sarvice f'r ye'er counthry? he says.
They made him a coat of an old nanny-goat: I wonder how they could do so! With a ring a ting tang, and a ring a ting tang, Poor old Robinson Crusoe." Mother Goose. The storm broke before morning, and a clear fresh September day opened on us castaways.
However, at the farther end, a group of creatures, bleating, moaning, moving about, is soon distinguished. Two peasant women, hard and brutalized in appearance, with dirty faces, two "dry-nurses," who well deserve the name, are seated on mats, each with an infant in her arms and a big nanny-goat in front of her, offering its udder with legs parted. The director seems pleasantly surprised.
"I don't know where to begin, or what to say," replied Polly, falling into deep thought. "I just believe she does sigh at the end of every needle," mused Dotty; "I'm going to keep 'count. That's once." "Please, Miss Polly, tell a nanny-goat," said Flyaway, dancing around the room. "Please, Miss Polly, and I'll kiss you a pretty little kiss." "Twice," whispered Dotty.
Donald, she said, wanted to have a 'hakkise'; so we bought a nanny-goat from Ludwig Wolfen, the German trader at Molok, and one evening the 23rd of December I helped Sera to drive and drag the unsuspecting creature home to her husband's place to the slaughter.
Bernard Jansoulet," a long dithyramb in favour of artificial lactation, written from notes made by Jenkins, which were recognisable through certain fine phrases much affected by the Irishman, such as "the long martyrology of childhood," "the sordid traffic in the breast," "the beneficent nanny-goat as foster-mother," and finishing, after a pompous description of the splendid establishment at Nanterre, with a eulogy of Jenkins and a glorification of Jansoulet: "O Bernard Jansoulet, benefactor of childhood!"
"Look there," said she, pointing at the boys who were sliding, "all they do is to play their pranks! They'll turn out just such Rzhanoff fellows as their fathers." One of the boys clad in a great-coat and a visorless cap, heard her words and halted: "What are you scolding about?" he shouted to the old woman. "You're an old Rzhanoff nanny-goat yourself!" I asked the boy: "And do you live here?"
At length, in the afternoon, the old woman noticed this particular nanny-goat stealing off by herself away from the herd and she at once went after her. On and on the goat walked for some way, and then disappeared into a cave in the rocks.
Many times has Jeannette wondered how the people lived down there, so many together; and where their cows could feed, and whether there were any little girls like herself, and if they picked berries, and had such a dear old black nanny-goat as hers, that gave milk for her supper, and now had two little black kids, its babies.
Every morning she drove the goats out into the desert to graze on the shrubs and bushes which grew there, and every evening they came home of themselves to be milked and to be shut up safely for the night. One evening the old woman was astonished to find that her very best nanny-goat returned without a drop of milk.
