"Then we leaves 'im at the Kernul's 'ouse, werry sick, an' we cuts hover to B Comp'ny barrick an' we sez we 'ave saved Benira from a bloody doom, an' the chances was agin there bein' p'raid on Thursday. About ten minutes later come three envelicks, one for each of us. S'elp me Bob, if the old bloke 'adn't guv us a fiver apiece sixty-four rupees in the bazar!
"S'elp me, Bob, aint 'e a doin' it a fair treat." "Don't 'e fancy 'isself, just." It is difficult to keep quietly on at work with every appearance of indifference under such circumstances. It is also exasperating to be called "Matey," as though you were a pal of theirs, and lived on the same landing. Yet these are only a few of the indignities with which a poor artist has to put up.
Come on if you like. My monkey's up now. Fire! I just will! It will only be once, though, and then s'elp me, I'll let whichever of you it is have it with a straight-down dig right between the shoulders one as will pin you into the soft earth. I'll do for one of you at any rate, and then let them come and relieve guard. Relieve guard, indeed, when there won't be no guard to relieve!
I can't understand, s'elp me God, I can't, Johnny! Why should FitzHugh come over into this valley alone? And he rode over! I'd say the devil couldn't do that!" He said nothing more, but went out to lead in the hobbled horses, leaving Aldous in half-stunned wonderment to finish the preparation of breakfast. Joanne reappeared a little later, and helped him.
Boy tramps, looking tired already "Wish ye luck, gentlemen"; fat sailors and mutilated colliers playing organs 'Twas in Trafalgar Bay, and Come Whoam to thee Childer and Me; tatterdemalions selling the C'rect Card-"on'y fourpence, and I've slep' out on the Downs last night, s'elp me" and all the ragged army of the maimed and the miserable who hang on the edge of a carnival.
On the box the coachman nudged the footman, as if to say: "Did you ever! Well, s'elp me!" For, in the next few strides, the horses had to be pulled to one side to avoid a cart laden with potatoes, driven by a coatless youth who had one arm thrown gracefully around the waist of a girl in a huge bonnet. Nellie turned and stared at them in most unladylike manner, much to their discomfiture.
Billy hesitated. "Goin' 'ome," he vociferated. "S'elp me " "One moment," said Brett. "Surely you have some idea of the appearance of the rascal who pulled your horse over?" The man was alternately surveying the cheque and looking into the face of his benefactor. "I dunno," he cried, after a pause. "I feel a bit mixed. This gentleman 'ere 'as acted as square as ever man did.
It says on that red card, 'Head This end up, an', s'elp me, it's going to be up, unless you put it down. I ain't goin' to be ha'nted by no ghosts! Ho, ho, ho " He approached close to the box. "I'll take this red card off, Mister Hodges. It ain't nat'ral when there ain't nothing but maps 'n' things in it."
'An' that's all right, said Ortheris, withdrawing his head as he heard the hiccough of the Sniders in the distance. 'S'elp me Gawd, tho', that man's not fit to live messin' with my beauty-sleep this way. 'Go out and shoot him in the morning, then, said the subaltern incautiously. 'Silence in the tents now. Get your rest, men.
"These indignant spectres dragged me before three spirits who acted as judges in those parts, and who, as I understood, had formerly been Mahatmas when living; and these, after hearing the evidence before the court, pronounced upon me a most s'elp me beans! most terrible sentence.
