"I looked over the fence, and I seed he had hoed jist ten hills of potatoes, and that's all. Fact I assure you. "Sais he, 'Mr. Slick, tell you what, of all the work I ever did in my life I like hoein' potatoes the best, and I'd rather die than do that, it makes my back ache so." "'Good airth" and seas, sais I to myself, 'what a parfect pictur of a lazy man that is! How far is it to Windsor?
"You see," he would say to Fred, "it's not that her figurehead is cut altogether after a parfect pattern by no means, for I've seen pictur's and statues that wos better but she carries her head a little down, d'ye see, Master Fred? and there's where it is; that's the way I gauges the worth o' young women, jist accordin' as they carry their chins up or down.
I like to see a man parfect in his business." "I've hearn tell," said the Captain, "though I never see it myself, that Sam could write Jarman text as well as Roman." "I never see it," said the Fox-skin cap, "but guess it's so. There wasn't nothing Sam couldn't do on skates." "Do you recollect whether he used smooth irons or hollow?" inquired the Captain.
If I was a Prodesan that was in it, I'd say that while the Pope's back was turned, Father Tom made free wid the two lips of Miss Eliza; but, upon my conscience, I believe it was a mere mistake that his Holiness fell into on account of his being an ould man and not having aither his eyesight or his hearing very parfect.
He likes the gal, and the gal likes him, and it surpassed Huron sarcumventions to keep two young people apart, where there was so strong a feelin' to bring 'em together." "And Hawkeye and Chingachgook came into our camp on this errand, only?" "That's a question that'll answer itself, Mingo! Yes, if a question could talk it would answer itself, to your parfect satisfaction.
In that way, favoured by Divine Providence, we may live to see our friends again." "Courage, Mr. Mark, courage, sir. I know it must be hard on the feelin's of a married man, like yourself, that has left a parfect pictur' behind him, to believe he is never to return to his home again. But I don't believe that such is to be our fate. I never heard of such an end to a Crusoe party.
This is Deerslayer, old Tom, a noted hunter among the Delawares, and Christian-born, and Christian-edicated, too, like you and me. The lad is not parfect, perhaps, but there's worse men in the country that he came from, and it's likely he'll find some that's no better, in this part of the world.
When Mr. O'Callaghan died, after a long, severe, and expensive sickness, he left to his widow a state of unlimited poverty and seven boys. "Sure, an' sivin's the parfect number," she said through her tears as she looked round on her flock; "and Tim was the bist man as iver lived, may the saints presarve him an' rist him from his dreadful pains!" Thus did she loyally ignore the poverty.
I know this county pretty well, as well as most in it; and if there be a parfect man in Washington county, I have not yet fallen in with him. Ten millions of imparfect men won't make one parfect man, and so I don't look for perfection in the people any more than I do in princes.
My father coincided with Anderson and me; and he added, "I tell you what, your mother is not parfect exactly though I say it, as shouldn't say it but still she does work hard, and she will work hard; she has paid my little girl's schooling out of her own arnings, and, moreover, she has found me one pot of porter at least every night, which has made me very comfortable.
