P'raps you haven't heard of me, but I'm well known hereabouts, and if you want to see any of the sights, you'd best coome to me, and I'll show you round." "A guide, eh ?" "There be guides and guides.

I'll say nathin' about th' others, but there's nobody knaws this part of Cornwall like me.

I was born and bred and knaw every inch of it.

Before the waar I've had London ladies say to me: ''Ave you ever seen the Bay of Naples, or the Canaries?
Oh, you should see them, Mr.Portgartha, they're ever so much more grand than Cornwall.' Well, while the war was on I did see the Canaries and Bay of Naples at Government's expense on a minesweeper, and they're not a patch on the Cornwall coast.

There's nathin' to beat it in the world." "It's good, is it ?" said Barrant, with his accustomed affability to strangers.
