She cast a prophetic eye into the future, and saw Dick and Julia, man and maid, reuniting their severed houses in the bonds of love, or doubly embittering their mutual hatred and perishing young and lovely victims to clannish hatred and parental rigour like Romeo and Juliet.

Of course you are a little rough colt; but you could be trained;" and then she looked with sudden admiration at her handsome daughter.

On his road to the house to pack his portmanteau Godfrey went a little way round to arrange with a blacksmith, generally known as Tom, who jobbed out a pony-trap, to drive him to the station to catch the 7.15 train. The blacksmith remarked that they would have to hurry, and set to work to put the pony in, while Godfrey ran on to the Abbey House and hurriedly collected his clothes.
She was doing some needlework, and little Agnes was sitting on a low stool at her sister's feet. Miss Frost looked up when Irene suddenly entered.

I want you to get" She produced a list of all sorts of materials, including a new doll for Agnes.
I have seen you in Crailing where we have just taken a house called Red Gables." "Yes, I live at Crailing," replied Diana, a little shyly. "And I saw you, there one day you were sitting in a pony-trap, waiting outside a cottage, and singing to yourself. I noticed the quality of her voice then," added Miss de Gervais, turning to the maestro. "Yes," said Baroni, with placid content. "It is superb."
Even if she were to cry out at the top of her voice she couldn't assert her identity; those huge passive folds of green country wouldn't believe her.

She lashed the pony into a canter, but felt no better for it.
I'll send the pony-trap down to the rectory for you at half-past eight o'clock." "Oh, but, father," said Merry, "we can walk home." "No dear; I will send the little carriage. Now, go and enjoy yourself, my child." He looked at her with great affection, and she felt herself reddening. Had she hurt that most dear father after all? Oh! no school that ever existed was worth that.

They always passed through the village in the following order first the waggonette, drawn by the bony horse and packed to overflowing with baskets and young people, who waved their arms and shouted in high glee as they went by; then the pony-trap, driven sometimes by Jane Macalister, sometimes, when Jane was in a very good humour, by Kitty or even Boris; and last, at an interval of about half an hour, the donkey-cart.
I said: "Lupin, you are joking." "No, Guv., it's the good old truth; Job Cleanands PUT ME ON TO CHLORATES." January 21. I am very much concerned at Lupin having started a pony-trap.
