I could write a book on 'em, that is, s'posing I could write, which I can't; for, as I've told you many a time, my Lord, and you then but a bye over here on a visit, wi' the Bo'sun, or his Honor the Cap'n, and you no older then than er Mr.
I am starving hungry, and it does take so long for the girls to cook pancakes in our little frying pan. Hurry up! It must be breakfast time already. I wish I had wings to fly home with. S'posing we were birds, we would be there in a jiffy." "Let's play we were," suggested Allee. "That will make the way seem shorter."
Geordie Marr down the harbour has a big garden like this and he sells heaps of flowers and fruit and vegetables to the hotel folks. He thinks I'm an awful fool because I won't do the same. Well, he gets money out of his garden and I get happiness out of mine. That's the difference. S'posing I could make more money what then? I'd only be taking it from people that needed it more.
Oh, just look at the sun! It's way up high now. Ain't it big and fiery?" "S'posing it was a frying-pan," spoke up a second voice, which the startled tramp recognized as belonging to Peace; "and we could have all the buckwheat cakes it would cook. My! wouldn't that be nice?"
And Miss Kinney has ab-so-lute-ly refused to sing for us, 'cause Elspeth asked Mildred George to take a solo part, too, and Miss Kinney doesn't like Mildred.

That's too close. We don't like the same things, even. Faith'd be cross 'cause I'd want to put my b'longings certain places, and I'd get awful ugly if she took all the nice spots for her things. "Then, s'posing you paired us off by ages the youngest with the oldest, and the next youngest with the next oldest, that would still leave Faith and me together. It wouldn't do at all, you see."
No one did that when papa died and we don't know whether he ever got to heaven or not but he's a man and could take care of himself, s'posing he didn't get in. With mother it's different, though. She's a ninvalid, and I couldn't bear to think of her outside the gates all alone with none of us to take care of her so I put on potato sacks that's sackcloth, ain't it? and ashes.
"And me Grandpa," added the gray man, drawing Gail out of the woman's arms and kissing her blushing cheek. "Now she'll give him a drumstick sure," sighed Peace; "and s'posing he should ask for four!" "This is Faith, the baker and my right-hand man," she heard Gail saying, "and Hope, our sunbeam; Charity, the scholar; and Peace, the "
I want lots of stars in my crown when I get to heaven. Just think how terrible you'd feel s'posing when St. Peter let you inside the Gates, he handed you just a plain, blank crown. Mercy!
