"If I wasn't afraid of spraining a toe I'd boot you from here to hackenny, you old two-legged cook-stove!" "If there has been damage done, I'll pay for it." "There isn't any damage and I'm not looking for anybody's money. But there will be damage unless you get out of this highway.
The landlord was near spraining his wrist, and I told him for heaven's sake to quit the bed was soft enough to suit me, and I did not know how all the planing in the world could make eider down of a pine plank.

Presently, the others, who were reading, or looking at shells, took a fancy to do the like; and, in a little while, all the children, nearly, were spraining their fingers, in pulling out brass-headed nails.
