Excerpt from Handley Cross, Vol. 3 of 3: Or the Spa Hunt; A Sporting Tale "A peck of March dust is worth a king's ransom." "And every fop who owns a trotting hack, Mounts a red coat, and prates about the pack." The season was wearing out apace. Some unusually fine weather about the begining of March brought the country forward, and set the farmers to their fences and their fields. Ploughs and harrows were going, grain was scattering, and Reynard was telegraphed wherever he went. "You bain't cornin' this way again, I s'pose," observed each hedger, as he drove his stakes into the ground to stop up his gaps. The hazel-drops began to hang from the bushes, the larch assumed a greenish tint, and the groves echoed to the sound of minstrelsy.

Handley Cross, Vol. 1

Excerpt from Handley Cross, Vol. 2 of 3: Or the Spa Hunt; A Sporting Tale "Ow are ye, my lad o' wax?" exclaimed Mr. Jorrocks, bouncing out in his sky-blue dressing-gown and slippers, as Charles Stubbs appeared at the garden-gate, where we hare most unceremoniously kept him standing during his introduction. "Delighted to see you!" continued Mr. Jorrocks, wringing his hand; and hopping about on one leg; "most'appy, indeed! Bed for yourself - stable for your 'oss; all snug and comfey, in fact. Binjimin! - I say, Binjimin!" "Coming, sir! - coming!" replied the boy, settling himself into a fustian coat.
