If you please, Mr.--
gpt
Bombus, said he, cheerfully,--
human
B. Bombus, Esq., of Clovertop Manse, Honeywell.
gpt
But you 're not a minister, are you?
human
No; why?
gpt
Because you said 'Manse.' A manse is a minister's house, is n't it?
human
No, not always, Bombus replied.
gpt
But I call my place Clovertop Manse because it belongs to me and not to my wife, do you see? I call it Manse because it _is_ a man's. It is perfectly plain. If it was a woman's, I 'd say so.
human
Well, I don't think you 're much of a _humble_-bee--
