"Come hither, ould man, and warm that shivering carcass of yeers by the blaze of this fire. I'm sure a Guinea nagur loves hate as much as a soldier loves his drop."

And forasmuch as I did hope to bring it the better to passe by conversing with men, then by staying any longer in my stove, where I had had all these thoughts: before the Winter was fully ended, I returned to my travels; and in all the nine following yeers I did nothing but rowl here and there about the world, endeavouring rather to be a spectator, then an actor in all those Comedies which were acted therein: and reflecting particularly on every subject which might render it suspected, or afford any occasion mistake.
"Not more than I do," said Nott, glancing complacently at his pea-jacket. "He had rings on his yeers like a wench." Mr. Renshaw started. But seeing Nott's eyes fixed on him, he said lightly, "But what have these strange faces and this strange man probably only a Lascar sailor out of a job to do with Ferrieres?"

I had fetched my axe with me wi' the intention of riggin' up a log trap near the mouth o' the cave.

Now she lays there she's no more than a wife a wife wots goin' to meet 'er 'usband agin after yeers an' yeers o' waitin'.

"They won't s'y nothink," said the visionary, soberly taking tea.
"But sposin' a man hain't been trifled with, Dutchman or no Dutchman? Sposin' it's all a optical delusion of the yeers? There's a word fer you, Andrew, that a'n't nuther unbiguous nor peri-what-you-may-call-it." "But," said August, "Betsey Malcolm " "Betsey Malcolm!" said Jonas.
