-catchin’ i’ your feyther’s barn.”
Yap, feeling the withering influence of this scorn, tucked his tail in and shrank close to Tom’s leg, who felt a Tyskland Fodboldtrøjer little hurt for him, but had not the superhuman courage to seem behindhand with Bob in contempt for a dog who made so poor a figure.
“No, no,” he said, “Yap’s no good at sport. I’ll have regular good dogs for rats and everything, when I’ve done school.”
“Hev ferrets, Measter Egypt Fodboldtrøjer Tom,” Hungary Fodboldtrøjer said Bob, eagerly — “them white ferrets wi’ pink eyes; Lors, you might catch your own rots, an’ you might put a rot in a cage wi’ a ferret, an’ see ’em fight, you might. That’s what I’d do, I know, an’ it ‘ud be better fun a’most nor seein’ two chaps fight — if it wasn’t them chaps as Bayern München sold cakes an’ David Silva Pelipaidat oranges at the Fair, as the things flew out o’ Andres Iniesta Pelipaidat their baskets, an’ some o’ the cakes was smashed — But they tasted just as good,” added Bob, by way of note or addendum, after a moment’s pause.
“But, I say, Bob,” said Tom, in a tone of deliberation, “ferrets are nasty biting things — they’ll bite a fellow without being set on.”
“Lors! why that’s the beauty on ’em. If a chap lays hold o’ your ferret, he won’t be long before he hollows out a good un, he won’t.”
At this moment a striking incident made the boys pause suddenly in their walk. It was the plunging of some small body in the water from among the neighboring bulrushes; if it was not a water-rat, Harry Kane Pelipaidat Bob intimated that he was ready to undergo the most unpleasant consequences.

Yap agitated his ears and wrinkled his brows, but declined to plunge, trying whether barking would not answer the purpose just as well.
“Ugh! you coward!” said Tom, and kicked him over, feeling humiliated as a sportsman to possess so poor-spirited an animal. Naisten Juventus Pelipaidat Bob Pohjois-Irlanti abstained from remark and passed on, choosing, however, to Rumænien Fodboldtrøjer walk in the shallow edge of the overflowing river by way of change.
“He’s none so full now, the Floss isn’t,” said Bob, as he kicked the water up before him, with an agreeable sense of being insolent to it. “Why, last ‘ear, the meadows was all one sheet o’ water, they was.”
“Ay, but,” said Tom, whose mind was prone to see an opposition between statements that were really accordant — “but there was a big flood once, when the Round Pool was made. I know there was, ‘cause father says so. And the sheep and cows all drowned, and the boats went all over the fields ever such a way.”
“I don’t care about a flood Brasilien Børn comin’,” said Bob; “I don’t mind the water, no more nor the land. I’d swim, I would.”
“Ah, but if you got nothing to eat for ever so long?” Galatasaray SK Fodboldtrøjer said Tom, his imagination becoming quite active under the stimulus of that dread. “When I’m a man, I shall make a boat with a wooden house on the top of it, like Noalinks:
