” said Maggie, “ut tigris ——”
“Oh yes,PJS Dameklær Alisee' 6 Parkas Norge Salg, now I can do,” said Tom; “it was tigris,Air Jordan Retro 10 Męskie, vulpes, I’d forgotten: ut tigris, volupes; et Piscium.”
With some further stammering and repetition, Tom got through the next few lines.
“Now, then,” he said, “the next is what I’ve just learned for to-morrow. Give me hold of the book a minute.”
After some whispered gabbling, assisted by the beating of his fist on the table,Belstaff Gangster Mit Jackor Jackor, Tom returned the book.
“Mascula nomina in a,” he began.
“No, Tom,Canada Goose Chateau Parka,” said Maggie, “that doesn’t come next. It’s Nomen non creskens genittivo ——”
“Creskens genittivo!“ exclaimed Tom,Canada Goose Trillium Parka, with a derisive laugh, for Tom had learned this omitted passage for his yesterday’s lesson, and a young gentleman does not require an intimate or extensive acquaintance with Latin before he can feel the pitiable absurdity of a false quantity. “Creskens genittivo! What a little silly you are, Maggie!”
“Well, you needn’t laugh, Tom, for you didn’t remember it at all. I’m sure it’s spelt so; how was I to know?”
“Phee-e-e-h,Dame Moncler Adour Norge Salg! I told you girls couldn’t learn Latin. It’s Nomen non crescens genitivo.”
“Very well, then,” said Maggie, pouting. I can say that as well as you can. And you don’t mind your stops. For you ought to stop twice as long at a semicolon as you do at a comma,CG Menn Chilliwack Bomber Norge Salg, and you make the longest stops where there ought to be no stop at all.”
“Oh, well, don’t chatter. Let me go on.”
They were presently fetched to spend the rest of the evening in the drawing-room,Moncler Polo Skjorte, and Maggie became so animated with Mr. Stelling, who, she felt sure, admired her cleverness, that Tom was rather amazed and alarmed at her audacity. But she was suddenly subdued by Mr. Stelling’s alluding to a little girl of whom he had heard that she once ran away to the gypsies.
“What a very odd little girl that must be!” said Mrs. Stelling, meaning to be playful; but a playfulness that turned on her supposed oddity was not at all to Maggie’s taste. She feared that Mr. Stelling,arctic jacka, after all, did not think much of her, and went to bed in rather low spirits. Mrs. Stelling, she felt,Piumini Donne Moncler Gilet, looked at her as if she thought her hair was very ugly because it hung down straight behind.
Nevertheless it was a very happy fortnight to Maggie,Barn Moncler Vest Norge Salg, this visit to Tom. She was allowed to be in the study while he had his lessons, and in her various readings got very deep into the examples in the Latin Grammar. The astronomer who hated women generally caused her so much puzzling speculation that she one day asked Mr. Stelling if all astronomers hated women, or whether it was only this particular astronomer. But forestalling his answer, she said —
“I suppose it’s all astronomers; because, you know, they live up in high towers,Dame Moncler Gerboiseg, and if the women came there they might talk and hinder them from looking at the stars.”
