"Well, as long as we do speak, let's speak to the end," suddenly and calmly said Zoe, and smiled negligently and sadly. "I was deprived of innocence by a teacher in the ministerial school, Ivan Petrovich Sus. He simply called me over to his rooms, and his wife at that time had gone to market for a suckling pig it was Christmas.

Beyond the Water-port Gate we met a line of heavily laden camels, with a company of athletic Berber drivers from the Sus, in quaint long tunics of butcher-blue, and lank black hair: many of the men veiled themselves; they all looked as wild as hawks, different from any type hitherto seen.

Tea, indeed! Fawn-colour, trimmed with sky-blue! If you'd mentioned lobster-salad and sherry, now! Mat. I never tasted lobster-salad. Sus. I have, though; and I do call lobster-salad good. You don't care about your wittles: I do. When I'm hungry, I'm not at all comfortable. Mat. Poor dear Sue! There is a crust in the cupboard. Sus. I can't eat crusts. I want summat nice. I ain't dyin' of 'unger.

It was a long and scholarly letter, but the point was that the guinea-pig was the Cava aparoea while the common pig was the genius Sus of the family Suidae. He remarked that they were prolific and multiplied rapidly. "They are not pigs," said the president, decidedly, to Morgan. "The twenty-five cent rate applies."

Now who'd ha' thought o' that? Axially wantin' her own father! I'd run far enough out o' the way o' mine an' farther if he wur a-axin' arter me. Mat. Oh me! my side! Sus. It's hunger, poor dear! This won't do, Bill! I'm a shamed o' you, Bill! Exit. Mat. No, Susan, it's not hunger. It's the old story, Sue. Sus. Mattie! I never!

'Or sus' then Our in vincible Armada, which cost at least half a million, sailed, as you know, some weeks ago; the object kept an inviolable secret: conjectures various, and expectations great. Brest was perhaps to be taken; but Martinico and St. Domingo, at least.

To reach the market we rode out along a road thronged with people selling all sorts of goods, from splendid old flintlock guns from the Sus chased with silver and gold and going at three pounds, to striped carpets strong and violent in colouring at seven-and-sixpence each, and second-hand clothes of the most varied description.

To the south of Mogador lies first the Sus country and then Wadnoon, dividing the Morocco which is partly known to Europeans, from the Sahara, which nobody knows.

"Sus manos!" roared the old man; and dropping his hat the muchacho touched his hands before him in an attitude of prayer. "Give the gentlemen a drink!" commanded Don Pablo severely, and after Hardy had accepted the gourd of cold water which the boy dipped from a porous olla, resting in the three-pronged fork of a trimmed mesquite, the old gentleman called for his tobacco.

Whereas our right trusty and well beloved counsellors, Ambrose earl of Warwick, and Robert earl of Leicester, and also our loving and natural subjects Thomas Starkie, &c. all merchants of London, now trading into the country of Barbary, in the parts of Africa under the government of Mulley Hamet Sheriffe, emperor of Morocco, and king of Fez and Sus, have made it evident to us that they have sustained great and grievous losses, and are likely to sustain greater if it should not be prevented.
