“A little town called Puddleby-on-the-Marsh”
“And she never came to see him any more”
“He could see as well as ever”
“They came at once to his house on the edge of the town”
“They used to sit in chairs on the lawn”
“‘All right,’ said the Doctor, ‘go and get married’”
“One evening when the Doctor was asleep in his chair”
“‘I felt sure there was twopence left’”
“And the voyage began”
“‘We must have run into Africa’”
“‘I got into it because I did not want to be drowned’”
“And Queen Ermintrude was asleep”
“‘Who’s that?’”
“Cheering and waving leaves and swinging out of the branches to greet him”
“John Dolittle was the last to cross”
“He made all the monkeys who were still well come and be vaccinated”
“‘ME, the King of Beasts, to wait on a lot of dirty monkeys?’”
“Then the Grand Gorilla got up”
“‘Lord save us!’ cried the duck. ‘How does it make up its mind?’”
“He began reading the fairy-stories to himself”
“Crying bitterly and waving till the ship was out of sight”
“‘They are surely the pirates of Barbary’”
“‘And you have heard that rats always leave a sinking ship?’”
“‘Look here, Ben Ali—’”
“‘Sh!—Listen!—I do believe there’s someone in there!’”
“‘You stupid piece of warm bacon!’”
“‘Doctor!’ he cried. ‘I’ve got it!’”
“And she kissed the Doctor many times”
“The Doctor sat in a chair in front”
“He began running round the garden like a crazy thing”
