"Look at everything only don't make hay. Off with you!" or words to that effect. And the whole of us, with proper thanks, offed with us instantly, in case she should change her mind.
"Who are you, then?" says the young man. "I'll show you," says she. And she offed with her cap o' rushes, and there she was in her beautiful clothes. Well, the master's son he got well very soon, and they were to be married in a little time. It was to be a very grand wedding, and every one was asked far and near. And Cap o' Rushes' father was asked. But she never told anybody who she was.
"Well," says they, "there's a dance again this evening, and you must go with us, for she's sure to be there." Well, come this evening, Cap o' Rushes said she was too tired to go, and do what they would she stayed at home. But when they were gone she offed with her cap o' rushes and cleaned herself, and away she went to the dance. The master's son was rarely glad when he saw her.
"Well, there's to be another dance this evening, and perhaps she'll be there." But, come the evening, Cap o' Rushes said she was too tired to go with them. Howsoever, when they were gone, she offed with her cap o' rushes and cleaned herself, and away she went to the dance. The master's son had been reckoning on seeing her, and he danced with no one else, and never took his eyes off her.
Most of the Armada of store ships had already cleared out and now the last of the battleships has offed it over the offing; a move which the whole of the German Grand Fleet could not have forced them to make! What better pick-me-up could Providence have provided for the badly-shaken Turks? No more inquisitive cruisers ready to let fly a salvo at anything that stirs.
"We'll pull through right as rain." "Dear George!" she softly applauded. He pushed ahead. "There's this locum tenens I was going to take up in the North. I haven't offed that yet haven't refused it, I mean. Well, I shall take it. The screw's pretty rotten, but up in the North in the North, you know well, it's not like London. It's cheap frightfully cheap. You can live on next to nothing "
But when they were gone she offed with her cap o' rushes, and cleaned herself, and went to the dance. And no one there was so finely dressed as her. Well, who should be there but her master's son, and what should he do but fall in love with her the minute he set eyes on her. He wouldn't dance with any one else. But before the dance was done Cap o' Rushes slipt off, and away she went home.
"If you'd been in the garden," went on Charlotte, reproachfully, "and flopped down like that when the Queen said 'Off with his head! she'd have offed with your head; but Alice wasn't that sort of girl at all. She just said, 'I'm not afraid of you, you're nothing but a pack of cards' oh, dear! I've got to the end already, and I hadn't begun hardly! I never can make my stories last out!
