Tea first, please.

These sandwiches strike me as unusually nice, he informed her.

I don't suppose you realize what one ballad of yours has done. I'd almost forgotten the Old Country, but the night I heard you I felt I must go back and see it again. What's more, Carroll and I are going shortly--it's your doing.

You can't help yourself and steer the boat. Besides--after the restaurant--I don't mind waiting on you.
