It's fit to go and poison you, you unnat'ral boy. 'It wean't hurt him, said John, apparently very much relieved by the prospect of having a man in the quarrel; 'let' un eat. I wish the whole school was here. I'd give'em soom'at to stay their unfort'nate stomachs wi', if I spent the last penny I had!
"Yow, lad, yow. Why, you arn't big enew to carry a goon; and as for sailing, do you think a ship's like a punt, and shoved along wi' a pole!" "Never mind," grumbled Tom. "I'm not going to stop here and be suspected for nothing." "Nay, nay, don't you lads talk nonsense." "It's no nonsense, Hicky," said Dick bitterly. "I've made up my mind to go." "Nay, nay, I tell thee. Thou wean't goo, lads."
If he wants his dinner, and we sets it down by his door stoop, he'll tek it. If he's hed his dinner he wean't touch it." "Then let's make haste and get there before dinnertime," cried Tom. "Pole away, Dave." "Nay, we've got to go quiet-like, my lad. We don't want to scare the fish, and send 'em to the bottom to lie sulky. Nice wisp o' duck yon."
"That's a clincher," said the farmer. "You've coot the ground from under me, neighbour, and I wean't grudge the money any more." "I wish father wouldn't say coot and wean't!" whispered Tom, whose school teaching made some of the homely expressions and bits of dialect of the fen-land jar. "Why not?
We should be swept no one knows wheer, and do no good to them as wants the help." "But we can't leave them to drown, man!" cried the squire. "No; we can't do that, and we wean't," cried Hickathrift. "They'll get right on the roof if the bed-rooms gets full; and while we're waiting for day we'll have the punt hauled up. Jacob'll howd the light, and I'll see if I can't mend the hole.
"I hope he wouldn't set fire to the house for that," said Dick angrily. Hickathrift started as if stung, and stared at his visitor. "Nay," he said, recovering himself, "our Jacob nivver did that. He were fast asleep that night, and his bed were afire when I wackened him. Don't say such a word as that." "I didn't mean it, Hicky; but do lend me the gun." "Nay, my, lad, I wean't.
"It's a girt big un, and he's too sharp for us. Well, it's getting on and we may as well go home. He's gone! Blether wean't come to the top no more!" "But will he take a bait again, Dave?" said Dick; "I mean, if we come another time." "Will yow want any dinner to-morrow, lad?" said Dave, laughing. "Ay, he'll tek a bait again, sure enough, and we'll hev him some day!
"You can't see Mr Marston, my lads," said the squire. Here there was a fierce yell. "The doctor says it would do him harm," continued the squire, "and you don't want to do that." "Nay, nay, we wean't do that," shouted one of the men. "But I may tell you that Mr Marston says that he does not believe there's a man among you who would do him any harm."
Nay, nay, lad, that wean't do." "Oh, yes, it will, Hicky. I'll take great care of it, and clean it when I've done. Lend me the gun, there's a good fellow." "Nay, nay. That would never do, my lad. Couldn't do it." "Why not, Hicky?" "Not mine. What would squire say?" "He wouldn't know, Hicky. I shouldn't tell him." "Bud I should, lad. Suppose thou wast to shoot thee sen, or blow off a leg or a hand?
'Tell'ee wa'at though, said John seriously, when a great deal had been said on both sides, 'to return to schoolmeasther. If this news aboot 'un has reached school today, the old 'ooman wean't have a whole boan in her boddy, nor Fanny neither. 'Oh, John! cried Mrs Browdie. 'Ah! and Oh, John agean, replied the Yorkshireman. 'I dinnot know what they lads mightn't do.
