"I think I hear talking," said Mrs. Yocomb, entering. "Dear Mrs. Yocomb," I laughed, "you are the most amiable and beneficent dragon that ever watched over a captive." "Thee wants watching.
"May be so," replied Don Quixote; "but to come to the point, what does Teresa say?" "Teresa says," replied Sancho, "that I should make sure with your worship, and 'let papers speak and beards be still, for 'he who binds does not wrangle, since one 'take' is better than two 'I'll give thee's; and I say a woman's advice is no great thing, and he who won't take it is a fool."
"And what be this, then, Willum Smith?" was Jan's final question, as he brought his thumb close to his enemy's eye. "It be the miller's thumb thee's got, Jan Lake," was the satisfactory answer. Jan went back to school. I whopped un, I did." So Mrs. Lake doctored his bruises, and sent him off to school again.
But one day, Abraham Bradbury, after discussing some Monthly-Meeting matters, suddenly asked: "Is this true that I hear, Henry, that thy son De Courcy keeps company with one of the Alison girls?"

After dinner was over, Reuben cried, "Come, Zillah, I'm going out with Dapple, and I'll give thee a ride that'll settle thy dinner. Emily, thee hasn't petted Dapple to-day. Thee's very forgetful of one of thy best friends."

Sleep departed instantly, and I felt that I must be stone dead before I could be unmoved by those tones, now as familiar as if heard all my life. "Yes, please come," I exclaimed; "and you have been long in coming." Reuben sprang up with alacrity as he said, "I'm glad thee's come, Emily. Would thee mind staying with Richard for a little while? I want to take Dapple out before night.
