We cannot run them; there's not room. They would be into the thicket at the first dash. We would lose every hoof of them." "Sartin as Scripter." "What is to be done?" "This niggur sees but one other plan as kin be used jest at this time." "What is it?" "Surround." "Right; if we can do that. How is the wind?"
I s'pose my tone was some sarcastic, for she says, "Don't the Scripter command us to do so?" Says I firmly, "I don't believe the Scripter means to have us stand round talkin' Bible, and let the Smedleys starve," says I. "I s'pose it means not to boast of our good deeds."
He los' his pa an his prop'ty too, but he know betteh dan to go on hatin' fereber. Dey can't spec' me to uphole dem in dis fer it agin de Scripter an' my feelin's. Ole Missus bery 'ligious.

"Squire," said he, "isn't it written that 'If ye do it unto the least of these, ye do it unto me?" "Well, well," said the Squire, "when a man's family are against him, there's only one thing for him to do if he wants any peace of mind, and that is to come round to their way, and I ain't never goin' to have it said I went agin the Scripter."
And the parson, good mon, is a quoting Scripter agin it; you see he's a taking off his gloves, and a putting his two han's together, as he do when he pray for the sick, Jeany."
"The fellow has fed on husks long enough, and, as the scripter says, he is goin' to rise and go to his dad." "Do not let my father see me, anything, rather than that!" exclaimed Vernon, rising, and grasping the woodman's arm. "I am a great villain!" "That's very true, stranger; but you have got into the scrape, and the best thing you can do is to get out on't." "How can I!" "Be an honest man."
I tole 'em de Scripter said, 'Love your enemies, an' den I took de Bible an' read what it says about slavery I can read some, chillun Servants, obey yer masters in all things, not wid eye-service, as men-pleasers, but as unto de Lord; and so on. But, bless yer souls, chillun, dey wouldn't lis'en to dat so I foun' out dey was abberlishem niggers, an' I lef' 'em.!"
"Yes, but it's the London I has got to do with," answered Poppy Jenkins "and oh! the worst of all is, that aunt won't have me called by my home name she speaks of it most bitter as a 'weed. She says poppies are what are meant in the Scripter by the tares. Don't it sound real awful? I trembled all over when she told me that.
But it hain't reasonable, for how are you a goin' to clean out a filthy place if them that want it clean stand on the bank and hold their noses with one hand, and jester with the other, and quote scripter? And them that don't want it clean are throwin' slime and dirt into it all the time, heapin' up the loathsome filth.
