Now, Marm Pugwash is like the minister's apples--very temptin' fruit to look at, but desperate sour. If Pugwash had a watery mouth when he married, I guess it's pretty puckery by this time. However, if she goes to act ugly, I'll give her a dose of 'soft sawder,' that will take the frown out of her frontispiece, and make her dial-plate as smooth as a lick of copal varnish. It's a pity she's such a kickin' devil, too, for she has good points: good eye--good foot--neat pastern--fine chest--a clean set of limbs, and carries a good ---. But here we are; now you'll see what 'soft sawder' will do.
