Th' sins I've committed since, I'm sure iv. They're painted red an' carry a bell an' whin I'm awake in bed they stan' out on th' wall like th' ilicthric signs they have down be State sthreet in front iv th' clothin' stores. But I'll go to th' grave without knowin' exactly what th' black orig-inal sin was I committed. All I know is I done wrong. But with Willum Waldorf Asthor 'tis dif'rent.

'Good-afternoon, said Robert hastily; 'we shan't buy any of your horses now, whatever you say, and I hope it'll be a lesson to you. He had seen a little side gate open, and was moving towards it as he spoke. But Billy Peasemarsh put himself in the way.
They are quite ready to fight no boys in the school more so; but they are prepostors, and understand their office, and can't uphold unrighteous causes. "I haven't been near his old barn this half," cries East. "Nor I," "Nor I," chime in Tom and Martin. "Now, Willum, didn't you see 'em there last week?"
There was another name," continued Captain Wopper, drawing his chair nearer the fire, crossing his legs and stroking his beard as he looked up at the dingy ceiling, "that Willum often thought about and spoke of.

"Perhaps you would like to know, Imogen," said Star, confidentially, seating herself once more on the ground, "why I am so fond of Willum Shakespeare. So I will tell you. It is really part of my story, but Daddy Captain didn't get as far as that last night, so I think I will tell it to you.
Alas for Willum! His sweetheart, getting tired of female companionship, has been hunting the booths to see where he can have got to, and now catches sight of him on the stage in full combat. She flushes and turns pale; her old aunt catches hold of her, saying, "Bless 'ee, child, doan't 'ee go a'nigst it;" but she breaks away and runs towards the stage calling his name.
