CHAPTER V
22/48

Tell me where the clock is, and I will come with my mother to see it." The old man stamped his foot and his cane both with impatience.

"Pshaw! pshaw!" he said: "women all alike, all alike." Then with an evident effort to control his vexation, and speak more slowly, he said, "Can't you see I'm an old man, child?
Don't pester me now.

Come, on, come on! I tell you I want to show yer that clock.
