Now, Edmund, do not be disagreeable," said Julia. "Nobody loves a play better than you do, or can have gone much farther to see one." ¡¡¡¡ "True, to see real acting, good hardened real acting; but I would hardly walk from this room to the next to look at the raw efforts of those who have not been bred to the trade: a set of gentlemen and ladies, who have all the disadvantages of education and decorum to struggle through." ¡¡

¡¡ After a short pause, however, the subject still continued, and was discussed with unabated eagerness, every one's inclination increasing by the discussion, and a knowledge of the inclination of the rest; and though nothing was settled but that Tom Bertram would prefer a comedy, and his sisters and Henry Crawford a tragedy

His mother followed him, and tapped at his door. Clare opened it to discover her standing without, with anxious eyes. ¡¡¡¡`Angel,' she asked, `is there something wrong that you go away so soon? I am quite sure you are not yourself.' ¡¡¡¡`I am not, quite, mother,' said he. ¡¡¡¡`About her? Now, my son, I know it is that - I know it is about her! Have you quarrelled in these three weeks?' ¡¡¡¡`We have not exactly quarrelled,' he said. `But we have had a difference------' ¡¡¡¡`Angel - is she a young woman whose history will bear investigation?' ¡¡¡¡With a mother's instinct Mrs Clare had put her finger on the kind of trouble that would cause such a disquiet as seemed to agitate her son. ¡¡¡¡`She is spotless!' he replied; and felt that if it had sent him to eternal hell there and then he would have told that lie. ¡¡¡¡`Then never mind the rest. After all, there are few purer things in nature than an unsullied country maid. Any crudeness of which may offend your more educated sense at first, will, I am sure, disappear under the influence of your companionship and tuition.'

"And why exactly have you come to me,Chief-Inspector?"

"Oh, naturally, naturally. But really, I've only seen Elvira twice since she was a child."

"Yes, that's quiteright. What exactly do you want to know? If it's anythingabout her personality, who her friends were or about boy friends, or lovers' quarrels – all that sort of thing – you'd do better to go to one of the women. There's a Mrs.

throttle, laser cannon firing. Luke ignited his lightsaber and stood his ground. Hisweapon deflected every bolt the scout fired at Luke; but the bike kept coming. In afew moments, the two would meet; the bike accelerated even more, intent on bodilyslicing the young Jedi in half. At the last moment, though, Luke steppedaside—with perfect timing, like a master matador facing a rocket-powered a singlemighty slash of his lightsaber. The bike quickly began to shudder; then pitch and roll. In a second it was outof control entirely, and in another second it was a rumbling billow of fire on the forestfloor. Luke snuffed out his lightsaber and headed back to join the others. Vader's shuttle swung around the unfinished portion of the Death Star and settledfluidly into the main docking bay. Soundless bearings lowered the Dark Lord's ramp;soundless were his feet as they glided down the chilly steel. Chill with purpose werehis strides, and swift.

Artoo let out a long; plaintive cry as Threepio was removed. Then he turned toNinedenine and beeped in outrage, and at length. Ninedenine laughed. "You're a feisty little one, but you'll soon learn somerespect. I have need for you on the master's Sail Barge. Several of our astrodroidshave been disappearing recently—stolen for spare parts, most likely. I think you'llfill in nicely." The droid on the torture rack emitted a high-frequency wail, then sparked brieflyand was silent. The court of Jabba the Hutt roiled in malignant ecstasy. Oola, the beautifulcreature chained to Jabba, danced in the center of the floor, as the inebriated monsterscheered and heckled. Threepio hovered warily near the back of the throne, trying tokeep the lowest profile possible. Periodically he had to duck to avoid a fruit hurledin his direction or to sidestep a rolling body. Mostly, he just stayed low. What elsewas a protocol droid to do, in a place of so little protocol?

His thoughts were interrupted by Chewbacca's enthusiastic bark at the mentionof food. The big Wookiee was licking his lips at the prospect of a hearty meal. "Everyone's invited, of course," Lando said. Leia took Lando's proffered arm and, as the group moved toward the door,Calrissian glimpsed the box of golden robot parts. "Having problems with yourdroid?" he asked. Han and Leia exchanged a quick glance. If Han was going to ask for Lando'shelp in repairing the droid, now was the moment. "An accident," he grunted."Nothing we can't handle." They left the lounge, leaving behind them the shattered remains of the protocoldroid. The group strolled through the long white corridors and Leia walked betweenHan and Lando. Han wasn't at all certain he liked the prospect of competing withLando for Leia's affections—especially under the circumstance. But they weredependent on Lando's good graces now. They had no other choice.

Rembrandt The Jewish Bride Vader stood, rising to his full two-meter height, his cloak swaying against thefloor. "So, the Rebel scum are alerted to our presence." Furious, he clenched hisblack-gloved hands into fists. "Admiral Ozzel came out of light-speed too close tothe system." "He felt surprise was a wiser—" "He's as clumsy as he is stupid," Vader cut in, breathing heavily. "A cleanbombardment is impossible through their energy field. Prepare your troops for asurface attack." With military precision, General Veers turned and marched out of the meditationroom, leaving behind an enraged Darth Vader. Alone in the chamber, Vaderactivated a large viewscreen that showed a brightly lit image of his Star Destroyer'svast bridge. Admiral Ozzel, responding to Vader's summons, stepped forward, his facealmost filling the Dark Lord's monitor screen. There was trepidation in Ozzel'svoice when he announced, "Lord Vader, the fleet has moved out of light-speed—" But Vader's reply was addressed to the officer standing slightly behind Ozzel."Captain Piett."

Suddenly Leia was staring directly into Han's face with eyes that were, at last,fully understanding. She started to laugh. "You're imagining things." "Am I? I think you were afraid I was going to leave you without even a …"Han's eyes focused on her lips, "…kiss." She began to laugh harder now. "I'd just as soon kiss a Wookiee." "I can arrange that." He moved closer to her, and she looked radiant even in thecold light of the ice chamber. "Believe me, you could use a good kiss. You'vebeen so busy giving orders, you've forgotten how to be a woman. If you'd have letgo for a moment, I could have helped you. But it's too late now, sweetheart. Yourbig opportunity is flying out of here." "I think I can survive," she said, obviously irked. "Good luck!" "You don't even care if the—" He knew what she was going to say and didn't let her finish. "Spare me,please!" he interrupted. "Don't tell me about the Rebellion again. It's all you thinkabout. You're as cold as this planet." "And you think you're the one to apply some heat?"

His Caution was so seasonable, and his Advice so good, that I could not but be very well pleased with his Proposal, as well as I was satisfy'd with his Fidelity. So we fell to digging all four of us, as well as the Wooden Tools we were furnish'd with permitted; and in about a Month's time, by the End of which it was Seed time, we had gotten as much Land cur'd and trim'd up, as we sowed 22 Bushels of Barley on, and 16 Jarrs of Rice, which was in short all the Seed we had to spare; nor indeed did we leave our selves Barley sufficient for our own Food, for the six Months that we had to expect our Crop, that is to say, reckoning from the time we set our Seed aside for sowing; for it is not to be supposed it is six Months in the Ground in the Country.
Having now Society enough, and our Number being sufficient to put us out of Fear of the Savages, if they had come, unless their Number had been very great, we went freely all over the Island, where-ever we found Occasion; and as here we had our Escape or Deliverance upon our Thoughts, it was impossible, at least for me, to have the Means of it out of mine; to this Purpose, I mark'd out several Trees which I thought fit for our Work, and I set Friday and his Father to cutting them down; and then I caused the Spaniard, to whom I imparted my Thought on that Affair, to oversee and direct their Work. I shewed them with what indefatigable Pains I had hewed a large Tree into single Planks, and I caused them to do the like, till they had made about a Dozen large Planks of good Oak, near 2 Foot road, 35 Foot long, and from 2 Inches to 4 Inches thick: hat prodigious Labour it took up, any one may imagine. At the same time I contriv'd to encrease my little Flock of tame Goats as much as I could; and to this Purpose, I made Friday and the Spaniard go out one Day, and my self with Friday the next Day; for we took our Turns: And by is Means we got above 20 young Kids to breed up with the rest; for when-ever we shot the Dam, we saved the Kids, and added them to our Flock: But above all, the Season for curing the Grapes coming on, I caused such a prodigious Quantity to be hung up in the Sun, that I believe, had we been at Alicant where the Raisins of the Sun are cur'd, we could have fill'd 60 or 80 Barrels; and these with our Bread was a great Part of our Food, and very good living too, I assure you; for it is an exceeding nourishing Food.
