Say say, Jed Winslow, you come along home to dinner with me. I bet you've forgot to eat anything for the last day or so been inventin' some new kind of whirlagig or other and your empty stomach's gone to your head and made it dizzy. Boys! Gracious king!

Other guests had arrived by this time, and motion became impossible in the room.
Though I don't love such hot stuff as we had to eat, curry, and red peppers, and chutney, not to home I don't, but I see it wuz better to eat such food there on account of the climate.
