While waiting she fell asleep, and she dreamed of one of whom she had never before dreamt: that was very strange. She dreamed of her own child, who in that very house had starved and squalled, and never tasted anything better than cold water, and who now lay in the deep sea, our Lord only knew where.

They rushed him up the lane, tramped along the piazza noisily, jostled through the front door, and presented him before Hiram's astounded wife.

For though the evil spirit Chim, which she carried under her mantle, whispered to her to give the little bastard a squeeze that would make him follow his mother, or to let him do so, she would not consent, but pinched him for his advice till he squalled, though Marcus certainly could not have heard him, for he was attending Sidonia to the coach; but then the good knight was so absorbed in grief that he had neither ears nor eyes for anything.
They all gushed and gurgled and squeaked and squalled. Horrible! Sing, dearest; I must hear something beautiful." Failing to extract more from him, she complied.

He only hitched himself forward as though trying to assist the momentum of the cart, and clutched his buckets, one in each hand.

"I'll make life merry for ye, if ye come into this yard ag'in, you whiffle-headed dog-vane, you!" the Cap'n squalled after him.

"He stopped with a bump, his nose went straight up in the air, and he squalled: 'Wah-ah! Wah But in the middle of these remarks he choked and strangled and started pawing wildly at his nose, trying to get his breath. "His eyes were shut tight, and that deadly oil clung like glue.
The poor man squalled terribly, and the colonel and his officers were in much pain, especially when they saw me take out my penknife: but I soon put them out of fear; for, looking mildly, and immediately cutting the strings he was bound with, I set him gently on the ground, and away he ran.
