Wall, it wuz a sight a sight to see that city, and then to see a-windin' up the face of the cliff the windin' trail, and the little burros a-climbin' up slowly from the valley, and the strange four-horned sheep of the Navago herds a-grazin' amongst the high rocks. It wuz one of the most impressive sights of all the wonderful sights of the Columbus Fair, and so I told Josiah.
Looks like to me we'll have a rainin', windin' spell." "No: I'll haffter go down." "Well, come agin, and fix to stay a week." "You-uns come down with me." "Won't go now, I guess, Tom." "Giddep! I'll be back by in the mornin'." "Farwell!" Rather laconic.
"Yes, the coolers, the hired help, you know," sez he. "Catch Ury fixin' his eye on his left side coat collar when he speaks to me not dastin' to lift it, and bowin' and scrapin' when I told him to go and hitch up, or bring in a pail of water, and catch him windin' his hair in a wod when he wuz out by himself and then lettin' it down his back when he came to wait on me."
The high-back rocker and the basket of knitting were transferred to the porch; and with the beauty and the music of a spring morning around us I listened to the story of Milly Baker's boy.

When yer feet are on the summit, an' the wide horizon clears, An' ye look back on yer pathway windin' thro' the vale o' tears; When ye see how much ye've trespassed an' how fur ye've gone astray, Ye'll know the way o' Providence ain't apt t' be your way. God knows as much as can be known, but I don't think it's true He knows of all the dangers in the path o' me an' you.

I turns out in the snow with the rest, an' we-all puts in a heated an' highly profane half-hour restorin' the waggon to health.

Good neet, Mary; it's like ye'll be a' thrang eneuf to-morrow wi' the feast for the berryin', and it's like eneuf ma mistress and laal Liza will be ower at the windin'." The dame sighed audibly.
