'I suppose I shall see Mr Crumb before I go, said Mrs Hurtle. 'She don't deserve it; do she? And even now she never says a word about him that I call respectful. She looks on him as just being better than Mrs Buggins's children. That's all. 'She'll be all right when he has once got her home.

"Listen," said the Princess, "ask him whether he will have his kisses from my Ladies-in-waiting." "No, thank you," said the Swineherd. "I will have ten kisses from the Princess, or, I will keep my pipkin." "How tiresome!" said the Princess; "but you must stand round me, so that nobody shall see."

"I will have ten kisses from the Princess," said the Swineherd. "Good gracious!" said the Lady-in-waiting. "I will not take less," said the Swineherd. "Well, what did he say?" asked the Princess.
