The coffee was unusually good that morning, even for Jakie.
"Felix, you and Hattie were so delighted with that little poem which I read to you from the Journal of Eugenie de Guerin, that I have tried to set it to music for you. The tune does not suit it exactly, but we can use it until I find a better one." Hattie clapped her hands with delight, and Felix partly forgot his woes and grievances.

"Father won't let Josie Wilson die," Polly used to say; or, "What bad toothache Peter Simpkins has to-day but when father sees him he will be all right."

"I must find two hundred thousand francs in two hours." "Oh, you can easily get them.

She cherished her bereavements and her wounds, and kept them open with her tears; but, even while she suffered measureless woes, it solaced her heart to relieve the woes and dry the tears of others. Thus was her life a constant charity; and when she died she could, like the Empress Josephine, say of herself, "I have wept much, but never have I made others weep."

But between the Doctor's garden and the one on the right hand there was that very picturesque contrivance a common well; the door on the Desprez side had chanced to be unbolted, and now, through the arched aperture, a man's bearded face and an arm supporting a lantern were introduced into the world of windy darkness, where Anastasie concealed her woes.
'The fact is I meant to make Nan jealous, for she knows Dora, and I was sure would hear of our doings. I was tired of being walked on, and I thought I'd try to break away and not be a bore and a laughing-stock any more, he said slowly, as if it relieved him to pour out his doubts and woes and hopes and joys to his old friend.
