Says I: 'I'll go back Eastern Shore way, and see if there's any niggers to git. So I tramped it from Somers's Cove to Princess Anne, an' sluiced my gob at Kingston and the Trappe till I felt noddy with the booze, and lay down in the churchyard to snooze it off.
Anyhow, if if anything does happen it won't come during darkness; that is, unless it's some of them half-breed or Mexican rustlers, and I don't believe they've been around these diggings lately. I'm going to snooze." Soon his heavy breathing told that he slept, and several hours passed before he again awoke.
Poor Muff had crept there for a little snooze after Brownie went away. "You nasty cat! I see it all now; it's you that have eaten up all the supper; it's you that have been on my clean tablecloth with your dirty paws." They were white paws, and as clean as possible; but Cook never thought of that, any more than she did of the fact that cats don't usually drink cider or eat apple pudding.
I'd got the place in a pig-muck, as Mary said, 'doing for' myself, and I was having a snooze on the sofa when they got back. The first thing I remember was some one stroking my head and kissing me, and I heard Mary saying, 'My poor boy! My poor old boy! I sat up with a jerk. I thought that Jim had gone off again. But it seems that Mary was only referring to me.
We shan't sail afore nine." "It don't look right," said the lady, who was sorely tempted. "But the missus says I may go if I like, so I'll just go and get my box ready. I'll be down on the jetty at nine." "Ay, ay," said the skipper, smiling, "me and Bill'll just have a snooze till then. So long." "So long," said Matilda.
In my best days I should never have faced a jump like that in cold blood," said the rector. "I've got no little belongings of wife or child to make a prudent man of me, you see," returned the surgeon. "At worst it's but a knock on the head and a longish snooze." The rector fancied he felt his wife's shudder shake the carriage, but the sensation was of his own producing.
"Oh, Mikel," I replied, "let me sleep one hour more, for I need more sleep. I want another snooze." "There is no time to be lost," he replied; "you will have a snooze later in the day." So I rubbed my eyes to get fully awake, and washed my face with snow, and felt ready for another start.
Leastwise I know many a hard drinker as have bin indooced to give it up and stuck to it all through comin' here to have a snooze in a comfortable hunk. They give the bunks names cubicles they calls 'em in the lump.
However, he is glad enough to be safe; and seeing signs of better weather goes into his cabin to wait, leaving a watchman on guard. This is the first specimen of the old stage-craft; Daland had to be got rid of, so, instead of attending to any damage the waves may have caused the ship, he goes quietly downstairs to take a snooze. The watchman tries to keep himself awake by singing.
Stifling a larf a'most stifles oneself, that's a fact. I felt sorry for her, too, but sorrow won't always keep you from larfin', unless you be sorry for yourself. So as I didn't want to offend her I ups legs agin to the jam, and shot my eyes and tried to go to sleep. "Well, I can snooze through most any thin', but I couldn't get much sleep that night.
