"The locust z-ing." "Devil's-needles zigzagging along the Nut-Meadow brook."
"The architect has rather slopped over on the plans," he said, when the frame was up, "so I'm putting up a Queen Anne wood-shed for the present, while he knocks a few bay windows out of the conservatory. 'A penny saved 's a penny earned, you know.
