Now Mr. Laurence is looking up at the sky and the weathercock . I wish he would go too . There 's Laurie , looking like a sailor , nice boy ! Oh , mercy me ! Here 's a carriage full of people , a tall lady , a little girl , and two dreadful boys . One is lame , poor thing , he 's got a crutch . Laurie did n't tell us that . Be quick , girls ! It 's getting late . Why , there is Ned Moffat , I do declare . Meg , is n't that the man who bowed to you one day when we were shopping ? '' `` So it is . How queer that he should come . I thought he was at the mountains . There is Sallie . I 'm glad she got back in time . Am I all right , Jo ? '' cried Meg in a flutter . `` A regular daisy . Hold up your dress and put your hat on straight , it looks sentimental tipped that way and will fly off at the first puff .
Now then , XXXXX on ! ''
