Swedish customs already appeared, in a preliminary decanter of lemon-colored brandy, a thimbleful of which was taken with a piece of bread and sausage, before the soup appeared. The taste of the liquor was sweet, unctuous and not agreeable.
"I never heard of such doings in all my life before, Master Harry! but as sure as eggs are eggs you shall repent of this, for not one morsel of cake or anything else shall you have to give any of the party; no, not so much as a crust of bread, or a thimbleful of tea!"
They have been a-gaying together this turk of a while in foreign parts Here, maid! what with the wind, and standing about, my blood's as low as water bring us a thimbleful of that that isn't gin and not far from it. 'It is true, then, that she's become Mrs.
