Julius," she said, handing the paper to Hunne, "and tell him that as he made such a fine charade on my name, I do not wish to be behind-hand with him. Now, after this, stay away, little one, for we have our examples to do, and we cannot be interrupted again." Wili and Lili for their part, did not seem to care if the examples were interrupted.
Now, yes, now the ark fairly floated, and Noah and his wife shouted for joy! The flood had begun, and they were floating backward and forth upon the surface of the water! The wash-house floor was lower by several steps than the level of the ground outside. The water rose and rose, and the children began to be frightened. "Look, Wili, we can't get out again, and it is getting very deep."
Come then let us all go into the garden." He drew his wife's arm in his, and they walked out to the garden, the whole swarm following, Wili and Lili capering about in most noisy delight that their father should suppose that he knew what the "surprise" was already.
Then Wili repeated after his mother a short prayer, and never had he prayed so earnestly as now, with his heart full of dread for the results of his naughty conduct. Indeed he could scarcely stop praying; it seemed to relieve his heart to lay all his sorrow before his Heavenly Father, and beg his forgiveness and help. And now he could look in his mother's eyes again as he bade her good-night.
"Do you think that was a rabbit?" asked Wili. "I thought it sounded like a hen;" said Lili.

Wili and Lili really would rather have asked Trine than Battiste, for they had more hope of getting what they wanted from her, as she took new ideas more readily than the man, who did not like to be put out of his usual ways.
"Oh dear, well, that must be 'nutcracker' again," and Rolf ran off, wrenching himself from his tormentor's hands. But the boy followed him, crying, "Wrong, wrong! you are wrong. Try again, try again!" Moreover, Wili and Lili came scampering in from the other side, crying out,

Wili gazed thoughtfully over the edge of the tub, and said, "If it gets much deeper we shall be drowned." And it went on getting deeper and deeper. Pretty soon Schnurri grew restless, and sprang up, making the tub roll so frightfully as almost to upset it.
