Miss Pole : Put no further pastries on your lips or you will choke when you hear the news I must report! This is more preposterous and shocking than when the Wombwell lions came and the little child's arm was bit keen off!
-
Miss Pole : [running to the other ladies] Put no further pastries to your lips for you will choke when you hear the news I must report. This is more preposterous and shocking than when Wormald's lions came and the little child's arm was bit clean off.
