We roamed about sweet Sonning for an hour or so, and then, it being too late to push on past Reading, we decided to go back to one of the Shiplake islands, and put up there for the night. It was still early when we got settled, and George said that, as we had plenty of time, it would be a splendid opportunity to try a good, slap-up supper.
When they were cooked, crisp and brown, he displayed them with just pride. "Well!" he said. "Who's slap-up at Johnny cakes?" and standing them on end in the mixing-dish he rigged up tents a deluge being expected and carried them into his own for safety.
Foker's pursuits and pleasure lay on the table by his side when he woke. Ah! how faint all these pleasures seemed now. What did he care for Conkey Sam or the Worcestershire Nobber? What for the French prints ogling him from all sides of the room; those regular stunning slap-up out-and-outers? And Calverley spelling bad, and calling him Hokey-fokey, confound her impudence!
You're goin' to die as a gentleman in a square fought duel. You're goin' to die in a slap-up way as is a sight too good fer you, but don't go fer to make no mistake you're goin' to die. Yes, you're goin' to get off'n that plug o' yours an' stand on that patch, an' I'm goin' to count three, nice an' steady, one-two-three! Just so. An' then we're goin' to grab up them guns an' let rip.
