Let him be alive or let him be dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread. 'Nonsense! said the wife, 'it is only a roasted bullock that I thought would be a tit-bit for your supper; sit down and I will bring it up at once. The Giant sat down, and soon his wife brought up a roasted bullock on a large dish, and they began their supper.
I have resolved to appear to you as your guardian-angel if that ugly man Coppola should dare take it into his head to bother you in your dreams, and drive him away with a good hearty laugh. I'm not afraid of him and his nasty hands, not the least little bit; I won't let him either as advocate spoil any dainty tit-bit I've taken, or as Sand-man rob me of my eyes.
But after this they used to come in every day, and when she put corn in her hand and held it very still they would eat out of it; and finally they would get into her hand, until one day she gently closed it over them, and Frisky and Tit-bit were fairly caught. Oh, how their hearts beat! but the good fairy only spoke gently to them, and soon unclosed her hand and let them go again.
And no one was allowed to read any tit-bit out loud for fear of spoiling it for the next man." Jimmy Charters laughed shortly. "We're just nervy, and sensationalism helps. It takes one out of one's self for a moment; one forgets." "And the result is mud flung at someone, some class. No matter whether it's true; no matter whether it's advisable it's mud.
There was a scramble between two doctors for the last potatoes, and a duel between one of them and myself in the slicing up of roast beef or boiled mutton, and amorous advances to the lady cook for a tit-bit in the baking-pan.

But, of course, he soon spread it about the village, and it formed a nice little tit-bit of gossip. As soon as I heard it I took steps to deny it." "It never reached the young lady's ears?" "Oh, no," the old servant answered. "We were careful to keep the scandal to ourselves, knowing how it would pain her. She's had sufficient trouble in her life, poor thing."
"Mamma," said young Tit-bit, a frisky young squirrel, to his mother one day, "why won't you let Frisky and me go into that pretty new cottage to play?"

The race of man are full of devices for traps and pitfalls, and who could say what might happen if you put yourself in their power?
After a while the birds grew so tame that they would hop into the bow-window and eat their crumbs off the carpet. "There, mamma," said Tit-bit and Frisky, "only see Jenny Wren and Cock Robin have been in at the bow-window, and it didn't hurt them, and why can't we go?"
