'What trees? asked Bazarov, overhearing. 'Oh ... acacias. Bazarov began to yawn. 'I imagine it's time our travellers were in the arms of Morpheus, observed Vassily Ivanovitch. 'That is, it's time for bed, Bazarov put in. 'That's a correct idea. It is time, certainly.
"Ah!" said he half asleep, and but partly overhearing what was going on; "ah, Tom, my dear, you don't say that we shall all be handed down to our poster" a long yawn "to our poster" another yawn when Bang, watching his opportunity as he sat opposite, gently touched one of the fore legs of the balanced chair with his toe, while he finished Gelid's sentence by interjecting, "iors," as the conch fell back and floundered over on his stem; his tormentor drawling out in wicked mimicry.

"Like fun you will, young feller!" snorted the farmer, overhearing Tom. "I could not hear of such a thing," said the doctor's wife. "I'd like to know what you people think you're doing?" demanded Miss Timmins, popping out at them suddenly. "Now, Suse Timmins, we're a-goin' to do what we neighbors ought to have done long ago.

"Ah, it is very bad news," replied Yaunie. "That fool Farquarson," pointing to where the other steamer lay, "speaks all the time about what happened when you went from the port without permission.
