My William! my own William! Yes, I will take care of you! Nothing shall hurt you,--my own, own!
gpt
Who is that?
human
Mr. Thurnall, madam. Have you any laudanum in the house?
gpt
Yes, here! Oh, come in! Thank God you are come! What is to be done?
human
Make him take that, madam, and put him to bed. I will wait downstairs awhile!
gpt
Thurnall, Thurnall! calls Trebooze,
human

gpt

human

human
And so do some others, said Tardrew in a gruff tone, as if half to himself,
gpt
My good sir, quoth Tom,

gpt
Glad you're satisfied, sir; wish you was going to stay, says Tardrew.
human
Seen Miss Harvey this last day or two, sir?
gpt
Yes. You know she's to keep her school?
human
I know it. Nursed my girl like an angel.
gpt
Like what she is,
human
You said one true word once: that she was too good for us.
