No, I have thought of a better school than that for
you.
Wall, wall, cried the captain trying to move them
out before thethreatened gale could break.
They walked down past the brig a little farther
giving their eyes asailors treat.
The carriage stopped with a jerk before the
mayoralty. Suddenly in themiddle of it a hen was disturbed and went off cackling.
But Anthony promised and saw that he had made a friend.
It was neither a shipscabin nor a New England
parlour.
He could not bear thenoise the child had

He was awarethat behind her serious _expression_ she
was amused at all this. Just then the police knocked at the doorordering every house
