Indeed, Jotham noticed a rabbit bounding off among the hummocks of higher ground; and Noodles afterwards declared that he had seen the "cutest little pussycat" ambling away; though the others vowed it must have been a skunk, and gave Noodles fair warning that if ever he tried to catch such a cunning "pussycat" he would be buried up to the neck until his clothes were fumigated.
"I don't see that that makes it a hair easier, in the face of such a set of gaping noodles as " "I beg your pardon: there is more lack of conscience than of brains in the Abbey of a Sunday, I fear." "Well, all I have to say is, I can't for the life of me see what you want to believe in a God for! It seems to me the world would go rather better without any such fancy.
"Sure I am, Noodles," replied the scoutmaster quickly, "because there are no alligators or crocodiles native to the state of Indiana. I believe they have a few lobsters over in Indianapolis, but they don't count. But the chances are we will run across some queer things before we get out of this place." "What gets me," remarked Jotham, "is the way the thing came on us.
Jagienka took an earthen porringer full of noodles and cheese, and placed it at the threshold. Zych said: "The priests scold! But the Lord Jesus will not be angry about a dish of noodles; and a god, as soon as his hunger is satisfied, will protect one from fire and from thieves." Then he turned to Zbyszko: "But will you not ungird yourself and sing a little?"
The final adventure of the traveller in quest of the greatest noodles is thus related in Miss Busk's Folk-lore of Rome: Towards nightfall he arrived at a lone cottage, where he knocked, and asked for a night's lodging. "I can't give you that," said a voice from the inside; "for I am a lone widow. I can't take a man in to sleep here."
They were coming. The boy and Frances. He dug his hands deeper in his pockets to hide their trembling, and his face went white. But it was not Noodles. It was Mr. Robinsky, who had brought the harp, and, though he evidently intended to sit down and talk, with consummate skill and grace he was led into the hall by Carmencita and told good night with sweetness and decision.
The king, recognizing the soldiers who had uncovered his roof, drew near to the fire. "Shall I also come and eat with you?" he said, good-humoredly. The soldiers looked up from the tin plates, in which the noodles were swimming.
For Fallowfeild's always been perfectly decent with me. I know people think him an awfully risky lot, but they're noodles. He's racketed in his day of course he has. But if he'd been more of a hypocrite, people would have talked less. As the man says in the play, it's not the sin but the being found out which makes the scandal. And Fallowfeild was too honest.
Noodles would call out every little while, when he fell behind, for he seemed to have a horror lest he might slip into that horrible bed of mud, and be sucked down before his chums could reach him. "It iss nodt fair to leave me so far behindt der rest. How wouldt you feel if you rescued der argonaut, and lose your chump; dell me dot?
I should have liked you to meet Mr. Grey, but you must get your rest." "Sure," added her mother, "and as for meeting Mr. Grey well, your brother won't sicken for want of seeing him, I'll wager. Come along, Hervey, we'll go to the kitchen; Prudence has to get her best parlour ready for these chattering noodles.
