First Boy. You are good to me I am sure; when you come to see me, I will ask for some fruit to give to you.
Second Boy. I have a pear tree; that tree is mine, and we get nuts from it.
First Boy. We have grapes, and figs, and plums; but I love a peach best, it is so full of juice.
Second Boy. We have none of them; I shall like to taste them. Now I will show you our bees; the hives stand just by. When we take them up, you shall have some comb.
THE COUNTRY VISIT.
Miss. How do you do, nurse? I am come to see you. Mamma gave me leave to come and spend the day with you.
Woman. I am glad to see you here, Miss.
Miss. Pray call me as you did when I came to you to stay; you were so good to me! you soon made me well. I like you should say, My dear. I love you.—I ought to love those who are kind to me, and nurse me.
Woman. I did not think you would have me say so. But, my dear, if you are so good, I think I cannot but love you.
