It was at this moment that Basset, the captain of soldiers, who had in turn been amusing himself with George's glass, shouted: "Do 'e see that. Captain? Thicky galley that we passed in harbour last night, her be comin' out. Do 'e think she'm comin' to attack we?" "Maybe," answered George. "I can't tell. But whether she be or not, we must be ready for her. For she must not be allowed to escape.
'He can, says thicky man. 'And love? I says; and 'No, says he straight, 'he cannot. But he can learn the way of it; and that 'ull teach him to do wi'out lust. 'Tis a wise thought, the like of that, I allow." The gamekeeper paused for the murmurs of his auditory to circle about the tap-room, swell and subside, and then brought out his conclusion. There was book-learning to be faced.
An' theer's another marvelous thing as washin' in thicky waters done: it kep' the fairies off the bad fairies, I mean. 'Cause theer'm gude an' bad piskeys, same as gude an' bad men folks." "You believe in fairies, Joan?" She looked at him shyly, but he had apparently asked for information and was not in the least amused. "I dunnaw. P'raps. Iss, I do, then! Many wiser'n me do b'lieve in 'em.
The counters don't matter, I know; they'll soon be broken up and flung away; and the sooner the better. It's living hell to be born into a world where there's no justice none for king or tinker." "Sit alongside of me and smell the primrosen an' watch thicky kingfisher catching the li'l trout. I doan't like 'e in these bitter moods, Clem, when your talk's all dead ashes."
And he stood aside, giving place to the pilot. "Shipmates," said Dyer, turning to the crowd of eager-eyed men clustered thickly about the deck below him, "you do all look most terrible disapp'inted because we'm leavin' thicky island astern, instead of goin' in and anchorin' before mun. But though he do look so good and enticin' he baint quite so good as he do look.
"Blanchard!" "Ess fay, an' no harm done 'cept a stiff leg. Best to knock thicky poor twoad on the head. I heard the scream of un and comed along an' waited an' catched my gen'leman in the act." The groom held a light to the mangled hare. "Scat it on the head," said Will, "then give me a hand."
Why, old Cap'n Burroughs told me hisself that if it hadn't ha' been for you the Bonaventure 'd ha' been in the Spaniards' hands to- day, and all hands o' her crew, too. Too young? Rubbidge! Now, just you tell thicky plan o' yours to me, and I'll soon tell 'e whether I do think you'm too young, or not.
It is there that you may put the paper upon it, rather than fling the news on a dirty door-mat." "Fancy!" said Bert. "I never!" "Bear it in mind henceforth, and, if you will delay a moment, I will give you some black currant lozenges for your throat." A big black cat stood by his master listening to this conversation and Bert now referred to him. "Would thicky cat sclow me?" he asked.
"Then your simplest course will be to forget you have done so," answered the older man. "You go your way and I'll go mine. Your job's on the road, so you stop on it, Sammy, and if they busy chaps pop along, you can say you've heard nought moving but the owlets." "Duty's duty," replied Sam. "You must come along with me, I guess. Give me your air-gun, please, and pick up thicky bird."
"Who be you, and what be 'e doin' there?" demanded Dyer, dashing across the deck. But he was just too late, for a moment before he reached the rail the sound ceased, and he found nothing. But the horrible odour something between putrid fish and decaying seaweed was stronger than ever. "You, bo's'un, haul up thicky lantern and bring un along here, quick," yelled Dyer.
