Oh, that was a pigsty game, Scranton, that about God giving you the Healing Springs, like Moses and the rock!
Before he could think of any fresh line of appeal his energies were called out in another direction. Olivia had slid off the roof and fallen with a soft, unctuous splash into a morass of muck and decaying straw. Octavian scrambled hastily over the pigsty wall to her rescue, and at once found himself in a quagmire that engulfed his feet.
One of the lads who came in his boat, a thoroughly countrified-looking fellow, seemed to care very little about the vessel, rigging, or anything else, but went round looking at the live stock, and leaned over the pigsty, and said he wished he was back again tending his father's pigs. A curious case of dignity occurred here.
As soon as the plot had been arranged between them, the wench, who hated monks, in order to please her master, went to the monk, who was standing under the pigsty, assuming a courteous demeanour in order the better to please him, said
Asaph snorted and intimated that that Debby Beasley wasn't fit to "keep house in a pigsty, and anybody but a born gump would have known it."

Hamon he wass a very old man and he died very sudden. He wass just knocking a nail in the pigsty and he drop down and died." "Poor old man!" "He wass very old and he wass a good man. No one ever said any harm of old Mr. Hamon." "Then if no one else dies we'll say the following Wednesday," said Graeme. "And if well, if anything happens to prevent it, then we must go across to Guernsey and get Mr.

The farmer was in his woodshed, sawing wood, so he did not hear the pipes; and the farmer's wife was deaf, and could not hear them. But a little pig that had strayed around in front of the house heard the noise, and ran away in great fear to the pigsty.
I retorted that it was not a matter of piety, but of common decency, and my words were evidently striking home, but the girls applauded me, which spoiled it all "If you want to preach sermons you're in the wrong place," he flared up.
