I'm proud and glad, said Bell. 'Let-a-be, let-a-be, said Daniel, in much dudgeon. 'A were a fool to tell him o' such-like doings, they're noane i' his line; we'll talk on yard measures now. Philip took no notice of this poor attempt at sarcasm: he seemed as if lost in thought, then he said, 'I'm vexed to plague yo', but I'd best say all I've got i' my mind.
He was still in the lane when Simpson, the man-of-all-work at the Mariners' Arms, crept out of some hiding-place in the deserted outbuilding, and stood suddenly face to face with Robson. The man was white with fear and rage. 'Here, tak' thy beast, and lead her wheere she'll noane hear yon cries and shouts. She's fairly moithered wi' heat an' noise.
I'm noan comin' down again to-night. Daniel laughed the more at this, especially when he caught Charley's look of disappointment. 'Hearken how she's bolted her door. She'll noane come near us this night. Eh! but she's a stiff little 'un; she's been our only one, and we'n mostly let her have her own way.
'Mother, broke in Sylvia again, 'I'll just go and get t' lantern out of t' shippen, and go up t' brow, and mebbe to t' ash-field end. 'Do, lass, said her mother. 'I'll get my wraps and go with thee. 'Thou shall do niver such a thing, said Sylvia. 'Thou's too frail to go out i' t' night air such a night as this. 'Then call Kester up. 'Not I. I'm noane afraid o' t' dark.
Coulson doesn't know how t' manage his own business, let alone half the business as it took John and Jeremiah's heads ay, and tasked 'em, too to manage. I've no patience with Coulson. 'Why? he's a decent young fellow as ever there is in Monkshaven. 'He may be. He's noane cut his wisdom-teeth yet. But, for that matter, there's other folks as far fra' sense as he is. 'Ay, and farther.
But of this the latter was unconscious: they were not apt to exchange many words in the room which they occupied jointly. Coulson asked Philip if he had enjoyed himself at the Corneys', and Philip replied, 'Not much; such parties are noane to my liking. 'And yet thou broke off from t' watch-night to go there.
If they won't obey you, and you have lost the command of your vessel, I reckon you're in a state of mutiny, and you may come aboard t' Aurora and such men as are willing t' follow you, and I'll fire int' the rest." But our Greenland captain were noane so poor-spirited, and says he, "She's full of oil, and I ware you of consequences if you fire into her.
Alice said, 'Hush thee, Hester. It's no business o' thine. Sylvia Hepburn, thou'rt speaking like a silly child. 'No. I'm speaking like a woman; like a woman as finds out she's been cheated by men as she trusted, and as has no help for it. I'm noane going to say any more about it.
I'm just sorry about it, for I see thou'rt set upon it; and thou'rt so kind and good, I sometimes think I can niver be thankful enough to thee. When I think on what would ha' become of mother and me if we hadn't had thee for a friend i' need, I'm noane ungrateful, Philip; tho' I sometimes fancy thou'rt thinking I am.
A'll buy thee a bonny ribbon for thy hair out o' t' cousin's own shop. Some thought of another ribbon which had once tied up her hair, and afterwards been cut in twain, must have crossed Sylvia's mind, for she answered, as if she shrank from her father's words, 'I cannot go, I'm noane wantin' a ribbon; I'm much obliged, father, a' t' same.
