'Sit thee down, master, in the elbow chair, said the old man, knocking his stick upon the brick floor, and trying to do so sharply.
"At least," said Neb seriously, "if Pencroft has not had " "Look here, Neb," burst out Pencroft. "Do you think I could have a bullet in my jaw for five or six months without finding it out? Where could it be hidden?" he asked, opening his mouth to show the two-and-thirty teeth with which it was furnished.
We came into the capital of Prussia in the eil-wagen from Wusterhausen. We had tramped the previous day a distance of good two-and-thirty English miles, through a flat, uninteresting country, and being dead beat, had made an anxious bargain with the driver of the “Fast-coach,” to carry us to Berlin for a dollar a-head.
'From London? inquired the old man. The child said yes. Ah! He had been in London many a time used to go there often once, with waggons. It was nigh two-and-thirty year since he had been there last, and he did hear say there were great changes. Like enough! He had changed, himself, since then.

"Oh, Lord! no sir. Only two-and-thirty, my mistress tells me?" "Two-and-thirty! Why I thought he was above sixty." "Above sixty! Law! sir. You have a bright fancy. This is the gentleman, ma'am.
But for the indelible picture that my remembrance now holds before me, I could scarcely believe, even as I write these words, that I saw two-and-thirty men and women put before the Judge to receive that sentence together.
