"Go along with ye!" laughed Mary, still unwavering. "Sure," put in Hal, with hasty gallantry, "'tis a blossom she is herself! A rose in a mining-camp and there's a dispute about her in the poetry-books. One tells you to leave her on her stalk, and another says to gather ye rosebuds while ye may, old time is still a-flying!" "Ye're mixin' me up," said Mary.
"In a sense," added Margaret, but the protest continued. "Well, isn't the most civilized thing going, the man who has learnt to wear his income properly?" "Exactly what your Mr. Basts won't do."

"It's like the foreign birds they tell about!" said Miss Rejoice, folding her thin hands, and settling herself on the pillow with an air of perfect content, "nightingales, and skylarks, and all the birds in the poetry-books. What is she doing, Vesta?" Miss Rejoice could see part of the yard from her bed.
I believe you're a regular flirt, auntie, I do indeed. This poor young man now; you say he disappeared, but I believe you simply drove him away in despair by your cruelty.
