"You ought to be ashamed of yourself, sir," cried Sarah; "and here have I been ill-using this poor boy because Oh, Pompey, Pompey, Pompey!" She caught him in her arms and gave him a motherly hug, while I stood amongst the trees speechless. "Missie cry her eyes cos she whip Pompey?" "Yes, my poor boy," cried Sarah. "But his father shall know. Ah, you may well stop in hiding, sir; it's a shame."

Polly ran down the road and caught hold of her brother's stirrup in her impatience to welcome him. John laughed and jumped from his horse, then gave his sister the kiss and hug she expected. Anne Stewart stood on the porch watching this little by-play, and when the brother and sister slowly walked along, arm linked in arm, she smiled and sighed, then turned to greet Tom Latimer.

"If you love me as I love you, No knife shall cut our love in two." "Well, I do," replied Dotty, with an affectionate hug, "and I sha'n't go near the water."

Perhaps they will make your coat hairy, Dam. I mean your skin." "Whiskers to-morrow," said Dam. After a pregnant silence the young lady announced: "Wish I could hug and kiss you, Darling.

If you like, you may give your place to Agnes, and let her be the belle of the ball." Lloyd returned the pressure of the arm about her with an impulsive hug. "Oh, I knew you'd think of something perfectly lovely," she cried.

I went upstairs, vowing vengeance on Zerlina. I could have shaken Hyacinth, poor child, and why? Because her legs were too long, or her skirts too short, or the bow in her hair too large? What a disagreeable, cross-grained professional aunt I was! Or did I miss the hug Hyacinth might have given me? I was only just ready when the children began to arrive.

In the first place he gives Moa Artua an affectionate hug, then caressingly lays him to his breast, and, finally, whispers something in his ear; the rest of the company listening eagerly for a reply. But the baby-god is deaf or dumb, perhaps both, for never a word does, he utter.
