• Philander went into the next room, which was just a lean-to hitched on to the end of the shanty, and came back with a salt mackerel that dripped brine like a rainstorm. Then he put the coffee pot on the stove and rummaged out a loaf of dry bread and some hardtack.
• He calls it vermilion, but it's just red to me.
• Plant just a few tomatoes, unless you can freeze or dry them.
• We know your grace to be a man / Just and upright.
