Now if he'd been a tenor or counter chap, we might ha' contrived the rest o't without en, you see. But for a quire to lose the treble, why, my sonnies, you may so well lose your . . . " The tranter paused, unable to mention an image vast enough for the occasion. "Your head at once," suggested Mr. Penny.
"That isn't just the Martian table of elements; that's the table of elements. It's the only one there is." Mort Tranter almost exploded. "Look, hydrogen has one proton and one electron. If it had more of either, it wouldn't be hydrogen, it'd be something else. And the same with all the rest of the elements.
"Only a drap o' drink got into his head," said the tranter. "Man's well enough when he's in his religious frame. He's in his worldly frame now. Must ask en to our bit of a party to-morrow night, I suppose, and so put en in humour again. We bear no mortal man ill-will."
"What did I teach you to say to God for the poor travellers who stop at the 'Trusty Man'?" "'That it may please Thee to succour, help and comfort all that are in danger, necessity and tribulation, we beseech Thee to hear us Good Lord!" gabbled Prue, shutting her eyes and opening them again with great rapidity. "That's right!" And Miss Tranter bent her head graciously.
One electron shell, one electron in the outer shell," Tranter told her. "Helium's period one, too, but it has the outer only electron shell full, so it's in the group of inert elements." "Trav, Trav. Trav's the first month of the year. And helium's Trav, Yenth; Yenth is the eighth month." "The inert elements could be called Group Eight, yes.
"You have both won honor from this meeting, and it would be sin and shame to let it go further." "You have done enough, Edricson," said Norbury. "You have carried yourself well," cried several of the older squires. "For my part, I have no wish to slay this young man," said Tranter, wiping his heated brow. "Does this gentleman crave my pardon for having used me despitefully?" asked Alleyne.
"For no cause that I know of," and he heaved a sudden sigh. "It is the dark spirit the warning of an evil hour!" "Stuff and nonsense!" said Miss Tranter. He was silent. His mouth compressed itself into a petulant line, like that of a chidden child ready to cry. "I shall be all right when I have kissed the kiddie," he said. Miss Tranter sniffed and tossed her head.
Ah, if brother Jim had lived she'd have had a clever son to keep her without work!" "Indeed! poor woman. Give her this half-crown. I'll call and see your mother." "Say, 'Thank you, sir," the tranter whispered imperatively towards Leaf. "Thank you, sir!" said Leaf. "That's it, then; sit down, Leaf," said Mr. Maybold. "Y-yes, sir!"
It was of a conveniently portable shape, and Helmsley slipped it into one of his coat pockets with ease. "Shall you be seeing Peke soon again, Miss Tranter?" he asked. "I don't know. Maybe so, and maybe not. He's gone on to Crowcombe. I daresay he'll come back this way before the end of the month. He's a pretty regular customer."
At that moment, Prue entered with a brightly shining old brown "lustre" teapot, and a couple of boiled eggs. "Mis' Tranter sez you're to eat the eggs cos' they'se new-laid an' incloodid in the bill," she announced glibly "An' 'opes you've got all ye want." Helmsley looked at her kindly. "You're a smart little girl!" he said. "Beginning to earn your own living already, eh?"
