'Far jollier, said Harry, looking at the pebbles underneath the bright waves and the masses of seaweed swaying to and fro 'ugh, it is cold though! When his splash had subsided he saw the island boys swimming far ahead of him. In a little while he began to feel tired, and the waves seemed to be growing bigger and bigger, and stronger and stronger.
"They look beautiful enough now, missy," said Captain Dinks, who had come to her side unnoticed, and seemed much jollier than he had done the night before, when he thought the ship in her last extremity; "but we didn't think them so a little while ago, when it looked as if the poor old Nancy Bell would lay her old bones amongst them!" "Ah!
Harlequins struck him with their wooden swords, and appeared to expect his immediate transformation into some jollier shape. A little, long-tailed, horned fiend sidled up to him and suddenly blew at him through a tube, enveloping our poor friend in a whole harvest of winged seeds. A biped, with an ass's snout, brayed close to his ear, ending his discordant uproar with a peal of human laughter.
"He'll come all right after the war," said Daddy, "and he'll be redder and whiter and jollier than ever." Then Daddy clouded suddenly, for he thought of all those who would be missing when Father Christmas came again. Ten loved ones were dead from that one household. The Lady put out her hand, for she always knew what Daddy was thinking. "They will be there in spirit, dear."
I'll send my Ted for a visit. He's such a restless spirit, it would do him good. With you he would be safe while he worked off his surplus energies and learned a wholesome business. 'I'll use the "shubble and de hoe" like a good one, if I get a chance out there; but the Speranza mines sound rather jollier, said Ted, examining the samples of ore Dan had brought for the Professor.
Is this the Vale of White Horse? Oh, I know about it; I have read The Scouring of the White Horse. Of course you have; and when you are older you will read a jollier book still, Tom Brown's School Days and when we have passed Swindon, we shall see some of the very places described in it, close on our right. There is the White Horse Hill. The White Horse Hill? But where is the horse?
"At that homely village on the brow of yonder hill we shall sell all that remains of the stock, and go home with money in both pockets." But our luck had changed. As so often happens, our hearts beat high with hopeful thoughts, and we felt jollier than we had done all day. Merry laughter and snatches of musical song re-echoed from our cart, and from round it as we went up the hill.
Fifty pounds a year seems a tremendous sum for a man like that to pay; but I suppose he knows his own business, and it will be a great pull for you. You will be able to have all sorts of comforts. I should like it very much. I have often wished I had had a little sister, and she can go out walks with me, you know. It would be like having a big dog with one, only much jollier."
Always fencing, sa sa! or playing at billiards, or hot in a steeple chace; there was not a jollier, better-humoured fellow in the world than Rowy Lester. "You forget, Sir Peter," said Walter, laughing at a description so unlike his sober and steady uncle, "that some years have passed since the time you speak of." "Ah, and so there have," replied Sir Peter; "and what does your uncle say of me?"
He did not smile at the porters as he pointed out that, besides his suit-case, he had only one small piece of luggage in the van, to be taken to his automobile; and there were other passengers who looked much jollier and more amenable than he: yet it was to him that a girl spoke as he was about to walk past her, after his chosen porter.
