Well, he was prayin'; that's the fact about it, I s'pose; and ye know I felt jest as safe when that man was round! I don't believe I could a' been drownded when he was in the woods any more'n if I'd a' been a mink. An' Paul Benedict is in the poor-house! I vow I don't 'zactly see why the Lord let that man go up the spout; but perhaps it'll all come out right. Where's your ma, boy?"
The price of admission was one rin each to children, and finally they chose the conjurer's booth, and saw him spout fire from his mouth, swallow a long sword, and finally exhibit a sea-serpent, which appeared to be made of seal-skins tacked together. When they left the show they came all at once on one of the great delights of a Japanese fair.
There is a stone in the spout so as he can't squeeze his way out, for he'll go through any hole a'most." "Yes; put it right up in the dark corner at the far end." "Right, sir. And you owe me five shillin'." "No, it's to your friend." "All the same, sir. Thank-ye." "I'm afraid he has cheated me," said Mercer thoughtfully, as we walked away.

Bors's eyes wandered to the door again.
Take your watering-pot to the tinsmith and have him fit it out with an extension spout one that can be slipped on to the end of the spout that comes with the pot. Let this be at least two feet in length.
