As a pleasant parting salutation a cheering one as I thought I exclaimed: "Perfectly stunning! . . . the most beautiful lot of women I have ever seen!" And then from beneath the bed clothes came "Y-e-s . . . the blighters!"
Then I heard K-LOOK, K-LOOK, K'LOOK KLOOK-KLOOK-KLOOK-LOOK-LOOK! then a horrible "gritting" of teeth, and finally a piping female voice: Y-e-s? Without answering, I handed the telephone to the applicant, and sat down. Then followed that queerest of all the queer things in this world a conversation with only one end of it. You hear questions asked; you don't hear the answer.
"Y-e-s," drawled out Simon, in a philanthropical tone of voice, "dat'e best way. What good it do to torment a fellow critter? If Misser Mulford run, why put him down run, and let him go, I say, on'y mulk his wages; but what good it do anybody to starve him? Now dis is my opinion, gentle'em, and dat is, dat starwation be wuss dan choleric.
Look how the floor of heaven Is thick inlaid with patines of bright gold; There's not the smallest orb which thou beholdest But in his motion like an angel sings, Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubims; "Isn't that beautiful?" "Y-e-s," said Nancy, "I suppose it is. The words sound nice when you read them, but I'm sure I haven't a ghost of an idea what it means.
Lucius stretched himself out on the divan, caught at a thick, richly embroidered pillow, tossed it over his head on to the floor, yawned, raised himself again upright, and said drawlingly: "Y-e-s, it's as you say. I find I spend every sesterce I have, and all I can borrow. But so long as Phormio is accommodating, I don't trouble myself very much about the debts."
It did not become me to protest, but I could not keep the dismay from my face, evidently, for Mr. Stewart laughed aloud. "What is it, Douw? Is it not to your liking?" "Y-e-s, sir but she is such a very little girl!" "And the name is so great, eh? She'll grow to it, lad, she'll grow to it. And what kind of a Dutchman are you, sir, who are unwilling to do honor to the greatest of all Dutchmen?
"Y-e-s I could, only he'd be sure to write something funny like 'In Memory's wood-box let me be a stick. He always does write something witty, and I don't much care for ridiculous things in my album; I'm being careful with it." "Well, if he's as witty as that in your album, it will be to mask a bleeding heart.
But solitude and reflection soon brought me to a better state of mind; and, long before the day was over, I had confessed my fault and was forgiven. But though I wanted very much to see a new water-wheel Charlie set up that afternoon in the brook, I dared not go through the wood to get to it, lest that small bird should still be calling, 'Naughty girl! Y-e-s.
"Y-e-s!" said I, somewhat disconcerted. "It was a pity to use a book," she went on, still very, intent upon the twig, "even if that book does belong to a man with such a name as Peter Vibart." Now presently, seeing I was silent, she stole a glance at me, and looking, laughed.
Some day, after she's forgiven us if ever she does forgive us You've said you're sure she'll forgive us, Matilda; do you honestly, truly, cross-your-heartly, believe she will?" "Y-e-s," said Mrs. De Peyster's numb lips. "I do hope so, for Jack's sake!" sighed the little person. "After she forgives us, I'm going to 'fess up everything.
