Darling, send Natalya to get some sardines, vodka, cheese, and something else. They will most likely stay to supper. . . . Oh, how tired I am!" "H'm! I've no money." "You must, Poppet! It would be awkward! Don't make me blush."
In person C. was inclined to corpulence, "no poppet to embrace," of fair complexion with "a beard the colour of ripe wheat," an "elvish" expression, and an eye downcast and meditative. Of the works ascribed to C. several are, for various reasons, of greater or less strength, considered doubtful. These include The Romaunt of the Rose, Chaucer's Dream, and The Flower and the Leaf.
They passed the old Red Hand shaft, long since deserted and denuded of poppet legs and engine-houses, its comparatively ancient tips almost overgrown and characterless, with lusty young gums flourishing amongst its scattered boulders.
Her face looked small to him; it was pale, as if she had been crying quietly, and though he could not see them, a large tear stood on each of her cheeks. "What little girl are you?" he asked, almost timidly. "Rey called me Dolly," answered the child. "Haven't you any other name?" inquired old Oliver "Nosing else but Poppet," she said; "rey call me Dolly sometimes, and Poppet sometimes.
Now the doll's finery, while limited in compass to minuteness, was very fine, and as Josephine's short shriek of indignation, "Quelle barbarie!" arose on the air, the cat turned around carrying the splendidly arrayed poppet off on her unwilling claw to be lost, who knew where, in the wilderness!

She clasped it tight to her bosom, and ran across lots to Hannah French's. Hannah saw her coming, and met her at the door. "I've brought you my poppet," whispered Ann, all breathless, "and you must keep her always, and not let her work too hard. I'm going away!" Hannah's eyes looked like two solemn moons. "Where are you going, Ann?" "I'm going to Boston to find my own mother."
Lessways, beaming, as Florrie left the parlour with her big breakfast-cup full of steaming tea, to drink with the thick bread-and-butter on the scrubbed kitchen- table, all by herself. "And don't touch the gas in the kitchen it's quite high enough for young eyes," Mrs. Lessways cried out after her. "Little poppet!" she murmured to herself, maternally reflecting upon Florence's tender youth.
Poppet valve compressors almost invariably show a slight vacuum, due to several causes, mainly the duty performed in compressing the springs of the valves, but the vacuum is also influenced by insufficiency of valve area, hot air cylinders, etc.
If you have "struck it rich" you will have the pleasure of seeing your primitive windlass grow to a "whip," a "whim," and eventually to a big powerful engine, with its huge drum and Eiffel tower-like "poppet heads," or "derrick," with their great spindle pulley wheels revolving at dizzy speed high in air.
