If you want to hear the bell to perfection, ask her to sing 'Toll the bell for lovely Nell." "Do give me that pleasure," said Alfred, persuasively.

"Well, yes, if you'll let me get down now, you may hope, if you wish to."
'Nay, for I know the nature of Namgay Doola; but since a guest asks let the matter remain. Wilt thou speak harshly to this red-headed outlander? He may listen to thee. I made an attempt that very evening, but for the life of me I could not keep my countenance. Namgay Doola grinned persuasively, and began to tell me about a big brown bear in a poppy-field by the river. Would I care to shoot it?
'Mother, said Allan persuasively, 'there's a letter for Father out there on the hall table; it's some message from the Heroic; don't you think you might open it and see what they say?
