"Why, Jonathan," she exclaimed, admitting the man whom Eve had never seen since the evening after her arrival, "what's up? What brings you here, eh?" "I've comed with summat for you," he said, casting a suspicious look at Eve. "Well, out with it, then," said Joan, quickly adding, as she jerked her head in that direction, "us don't have no secrets from she."
"What's the matter wi' you?" she cried peevishly. "You're as dull as dull. Can't you say summat?" John rolled round, squinting up at the pouting, blooming face. "There's not much to say, is there? What's the good of talkin' if you're 'appy?" "I'm glad to hear you're 'appy, I'm sure," retorted Jinny somewhat mollified. "I can't say as you look it, though," she added.
She hesitated a moment, seemingly pondering with herself before she answered him. "Ay," she said, "but I ha' another reason behind. I want summat fro' yo': I want yo're pity.

But what are you doing here, God bless you!"
And as she sat there opposite Nelly, her gnarled and work-stained hands resting on her knees, the tears suddenly ran over her cheeks. But she quickly apologised for herself. 'The truth is I am run doon, Mrs. Sarratt. I've done nothing but cook and cook since these young men coom along. They wouldn't eat noa flesh soa I must always be cookin' summat vegetables or fish or sweet things.

And as he did not go on until the next day at one, he proposed that we should go down to The Cheshire Cheese and get a bite of summat and then sally forth. So we hailed a bus and climbed to the top.
