'You poor fellow, said the boy pityingly. 'Take my advice and stay at home. If you once enter the miller's gate his dogs will tear you in pieces. 'Ah, well, such things have occurred, I know, replied the fox gravely. And without saying any more he trotted off the way he had come.
Two of the seniors who were going shopping lamented that they had neglected to apply for opera tickets until the house had been sold out. Berta gazed at them pityingly.
