8607 | I did not think, nurse, that wild strawberries could have been so fine as these; may I taste them? |
8607 | I suppose, nurse, when they awake, they are glad to eat some of the food they have laid up in their granaries? |
8607 | I suppose,said Lady Mary,"these lights are the same that the peasants of Northern England and Ireland call the Merry Dancers?" |
8607 | I think, sometimes, I ought not to keep my dear squirrel in a cage-- shall I let him go? |
8607 | I wonder where you were brought up? |
8607 | I wonder who taught the Indians how to make maple- sugar? |
8607 | If you please, nurse, will you tell me what these dark shining seeds are? |
8607 | Is it a book, my lady? |
8607 | Is the racoon a pretty- creature like my squirrel? |
8607 | Mrs. Frazer, are you very busy just now? |
8607 | My book is only a fable, then, nurse? 8607 Now, nurse, will you tell me some more about Jacob Snow- storm and the otters?" |
8607 | Nurse, can people eat musk- rats? |
8607 | Nurse, did you ever see a tame beaver? |
8607 | Nurse, do not beavers, and otters, and musk rats feel cold while living in the water; and do they not get wet? |
8607 | Nurse, do you know the names of these pretty starry flowers on this little branch, that look so light and pretty? |
8607 | Nurse, how can beavers cut down trees; they have neither axes nor saws? |
8607 | Nurse, how can they see to eat in the dark? |
8607 | Nurse, if you please, will you tell me what this little animal is designed to represent? |
8607 | Nurse, is there real rice growing in the Rice Lake? 8607 Nurse, please can you tell me anything about fawns? |
8607 | Nurse, please will you tell me something about tortoises and porcupines? |
8607 | Nurse, what is the name of that pretty creature you have in your hand? 8607 Nurse, when you see any of these curious flowers, will you show them to me?" |
8607 | Nurse, where did you get these nice strawberries? |
8607 | Nurse, will you be so kind as to ask Campbell to get a pretty cage for my squirrel? 8607 Nurse, will you tell me something about birds''nests, and what they make them of?" |
8607 | Nurse,said Lady Mary,"did you ever hear of any one having been eaten by a wolf or bear?" |
8607 | Of what use is the dam, nurse? |
8607 | Oh, what was it, nurse? 8607 Please tell me what a stoup is, nurse?" |
8607 | Please, Mrs. Frazer, will you tell me which flowers will be first in bloom? |
8607 | Please, nurse, tell me of what colours real porcupine quills are? |
8607 | Stop, nurse, and tell me why they are called black and white; are the flowers black and white? |
8607 | That is curious,said the child,"Does God sow the seeds in the new ground?" |
8607 | That must be very useful; but if the sap is sweet, how can it be made into such sour stuff as vinegar? |
8607 | This embroidered knife sheath is large enough for a hunting knife,said Lady Mary,"a''_ couteau de chasse_,''--is it not?" |
8607 | What are Pagans, nurse? |
8607 | What are wigwams? |
8607 | What became of them, nurse? |
8607 | What colour are the Canadian robins, nurse? |
8607 | What colour was it, my dear? |
8607 | What do you mean by the fall, nurse? |
8607 | What do you want more, my dear children,said their mother,"than you enjoy here? |
8607 | What is migrating, nurse? 8607 What shall we do for supper to- night?" |
8607 | What was that for, nurse? 8607 Which is the nearest way to the mill?" |
8607 | Who calls them all to build their winter houses? |
8607 | You do not think it was cruel, nurse, to kill the snake? |
8607 | *****"Nurse, I am glad Silvy went away with Nimble; are not you? |
8607 | *****"Nurse,"said Lady Mary,"how do you like the story?" |
8607 | And now, have you anything more to say about birds and flowers? |
8607 | Are there as many bears and wolves now in those places?" |
8607 | Are there many squirrels in this part of Canada?" |
8607 | Are there not moss, dried grass, and roots beneath, to make a soft bed for you to lie upon? |
8607 | Are they pretty creatures, and can they be tamed; or are they fierce, wild little things?" |
8607 | But why would biting out the eye prevent the grain from growing?" |
8607 | Can you tell me what birds they were?" |
8607 | Can you tell us where we shall find them?" |
8607 | Did you ever know any one who was eaten by a wolf?" |
8607 | Did you ever see a tame fawn, nurse?" |
8607 | Do the black squirrels sleep in the winter as well as the flying squirrels and chitmunks?" |
8607 | Do you see that red squirrel yonder, climbing the hemlock- tree? |
8607 | Do you want me to do anything for you?" |
8607 | Have you heard of any other sufferers; or do people sometimes escape from these monsters?" |
8607 | His name is GOLD-- Mr. Gold, are you here to- night or are you sleeping in your iron chest? |
8607 | How do you think the Indian women carry their infants when they go on a long journey? |
8607 | I am so glad-- are not you?" |
8607 | I daresay it thought them very pretty; or was it smelling them? |
8607 | I have seen acorns at home in dear England and Scotland, and I have eaten the hickory- nuts here; but what is beech- mast? |
8607 | I should like to have a tame otter to play with, and run after me; but do you think he would eat my squirrel? |
8607 | I wish there were maples in the garden, and I would make sugar, molasses, wine, and vinegar; and what else would I do with my maple- tree?" |
8607 | If they come to a lake or river, can they cross it?" |
8607 | If you please, will you tell me something about it, and why it is called by such a curious name?" |
8607 | Is it a dried fish? |
8607 | Is it a large city like Montreal or Quebec?" |
8607 | Is it a little beaver?" |
8607 | Is it the same as emigrating?" |
8607 | Is it''Little Red Riding Hood,''or''Old Mother Hubbard,''or''Jack the Giant- killer?''" |
8607 | It would have killed me, if it had bitten me, would it not, nurse?" |
8607 | Lady Mary was much interested in the account of the little girl and her pets"Is this all you know about fawns, nurse?" |
8607 | Nurse, please tell me what are sleigh- robes made of?" |
8607 | Nurse, what is a fawn?" |
8607 | Oh, Miss Campbell, what shall we do?" |
8607 | Please, will you tell me all that you know about them?" |
8607 | Then Lady Mary brought a print and showed it to her nurse, saying,--"Nurse, is the porcupine like this picture?" |
8607 | Was not that good, nurse?" |
8607 | Was not the Major naughty to say so?" |
8607 | Were you ever in the green forest, nurse? |
8607 | Were you ever there?" |
8607 | What do you think it was, nurse?" |
8607 | What do you think the beaver had done? |
8607 | What is it?" |
8607 | What was it doing-- looking at the honey- suckles? |
8607 | Where do otters live?" |
8607 | Why did they not carry it at once to their nests?" |
8607 | Why do n''t you come out, Mr. Gold? |
8607 | Why does he not lie down and sleep on the nice soft bed you have made for him in his little chamber? |
8607 | You know, Lady Mary, that the blackbird and thrush build nests, and plaster them in this way?" |
8607 | [ Illustration: THE INDIAN HUNTER]"Please, Mrs. Frazer, will you tell me what sort of trees hemlocks are? |
8607 | and do not the boughs drop down a plentiful store of brown ripe acorns? |
8607 | can you tell me?" |
8607 | did you find real hare- bells, such as grow on the bonny Highland hills among the heather? |
8607 | do bears eat raspberries?" |
8607 | said the child, after she had tired herself with looking at the prints,"a long, long time-- a great many weeks?--a great many months?" |
8607 | what can it be?" |
