But he won't. He never will. He hates to hear me holler. He says 'little maids shouldn't do it'; only I have to, to buy my sewin' things with; an' My, I clean forgot Posy Jane's jacket!
The one, a man in the full prime of splendid and vigorous manhood, the other, a maiden, timid and sweet, robed in gray attire with a posy of white flowers at her throat. A simple girl, and most distinctly human, the fresh, pure color reddened in her cheeks, the soft springtide wind fanned her gold hair, and the sunbeams seemed to dance about her in a bright revel of amaze and curiosity.
He had a rustic posy in his hand, but there was no holiday air in his manner; on the contrary, he seemed unnaturally subdued for a boy, and Angelica somehow knew who he was, and conjectured that his errand was the same as her own. If so he would show her the way. The child seemed unconscious of her presence.
Whatever might be his regrets, he kept them ever within his own breast. Posy was with him when Mrs Grantly went up into his room, holding for him his hat and stick while he was engaged in brushing a suspicion of dust from his black gaiters. "Grandpapa, here is aunt Susan," said Posy.
Didn't hear no name but, 'course, 'twas the cap'n. Posy Jane always thought he'd get killed, runnin' round loose, like he did, without nobody but a dog takin' care." Glory had clutched Nick's shoulder and was now shaking him with what little strength seemed left to her after hearing his dreadful words.
Shall I tell you which is which, or let you guess?" "Let us Sherlock it out!" exclaimed Geordie Knapp. "I know you're Miss Steele because you mentioned yourself last." "Right!" and Dotty clapped her hands in admiration of his quickness. "Now, which am I?" "Rosy Posy!" declared Ted Hosmer, little thinking he had guessed correctly, but saying so because of Dotty's pink cheeks.
That Cap'n Gray, maybe, or somebody. First you know, we'll hear him stumpin' down the Lane, singin' 'A life on the ocean wa-a-ave, fit to rouse the entire neighborhood. You eat your supper an' go to bed, where children ought to be long 'fore this time." Posy Jane's tone was so confident and cheerful that Glory forgot her anxiety and remembered only that chop which was awaiting her.
On many a Christmas morning had he greeted the good woman with some little posy, and now he had not found one hour to spare her since his home-coming. Now I would fain have granted this simple request but that I had privily, with the Chaplain's help, made the school children to learn a Christmas carol wherewith to wake the parents and Gotz from their slumbers.
My pipe drew well, and I did not feel like chiding. "It does not matter," I said, with a yawn. "You must not take it amiss, monsieur, if I confess that, as a guard, I have never considered you much more seriously than I would that brown thrush above you. What is your posy?" and I leaned over and took the flowers from his hand. He smiled at me drowsily.
Kitty raced after her, and Rosy Posy toddled up too, so in a moment the four were eagerly gazing at the new-comers, themselves quite hidden by the lace curtains. "Nice looking bunch," commented King, as he watched a well-dressed lady and gentleman get out of the carriage. "And there's the girl!" cried Marjorie, as a child followed them. "Oh, she is a stuck-up!" "How do you know?" said King.
