The moon peeking in through the window made Bumper feel quite at home, and with it came the sweet aroma of that garden, intoxicating smells of roses, green grass and succulent vegetables. "Are you there, little Bumper?" the girl called just as the sun rose. She was in her thin nightie, with her wonderful braids of red hair streaming down her back.
Now that 'ductor has gone and carried off my nightie." If Aunt Madge had dressed in linsey woolsey, with a checked apron on, she would still have been lovely. A white rose is lovely even in a cracked tea-cup. But Colonel Augustus Allen was a rich man, and his wife could afford to dress elegantly. Horace followed her to-night with admiring eyes.
There might be another Saint Bartholomew's night, and poor little me would be slaughtered in my nightie and my body would be thrown out of the window, as had happened to the noble Admiral de Coligny. Much later I went to live for a number of years in a Catholic country. I found the people much pleasanter and much more tolerant and quite as intelligent as my former countrymen.
We asked them for our nightie, As we froze, as we froze, We asked them for our nightie As we froze. We asked them for our nightie, And they looked-hightie-tightie- They looked hightie-tightie-so we froze. Now, ladies, take the hint, As ye stand, as ye stand, Now, ladies, take the hint, As ye stand. Now, ladies, take the hint, Don't quote the Presidint, Don't quote the Presidint, as ye stand.
"I dess you don't know how to hear me say 'em, Jimmy!" she announced inexorably. And picking up the skirt of her blue homespun "nightie," so that she showed her little red woollen socks and white deer-hide moccasins, she tripped forth into the big, noisy room.
And because you are here and are part of the heaven-born combination for the public good, I am content to go through the rigors of one night without a nightie for the sake of the cause!" "But they don't know who I am!" protested Mrs. Remington. "And " "Exactly, and for that reason they don't know who you are not.
"Goodness, I hope I don't have to get out in my nightie," she said, and poked her head out through the curtains. "Look out," warned Grace, pulling her back. "You may get shot or something." "Don't be silly," retorted Betty, not altogether decided whether to be frightened or amused by the situation. "There isn't anything out there but a lot of funny looking heads sticking through the curtains."
Musn't I save a piece of my nail, mamma, and lay it up on the shelf, so He can see it, and make the other one like it?" Mrs. Clifford put the nail in her jewel-box, and I dare say it may be there to this day. Just as Flyaway, in her nightie, was having a frolic with Grace, there was a sound of wheels.
"I thought Jimmie would be coming down in the morning to the creamery. He can get it then." "An' Mother brought her nightie in the bag an' my pajamas," contributed Sunny Boy, waiting while Mother and the bag were stowed away on the back seat. "Want to ride up with me and help drive?" said Grandpa, turning to him suddenly. Poor Sunny Boy was sorely tempted, but he decided quickly.
Lorraine will give me a nightie." I went through the vegetable garden to the back gate and out into the street. There I drew a long breath. I don't know what I thought Aunt Elizabeth could do to me, but I felt safe. Then I could laugh at it all, because it seems as if I must have been sort of crazy that night I began to run as if I couldn't get there fast enough.
