Wishers and woulders are poor householders. Weil worth aw, that gars the plough draw. Words are but winde, but dunts are the Devill. With empty hand no man should hawks allure.

Hitherto the hopes of his well wishers have been fulfilled, and the government has found in him a most energetic as well as prudent agent.
We satisfied the eager wishers, by promising to help to make huts for all who liked it, and, for the next week, as soon as school hours were over, every minute was employed in this new business. Madame alone preferred the tent, and soon had it to herself.
