Nobody would believe what an effort it is to do what little I am able,—to dress and entertain, and order things.
There were greenhouses, too, but they are all broken now.
There is a DELICIOUS garden! I never saw such a garden—large and shady, full of box-bordered paths, and lined with long grape-covered arbors with seats under them.
Now why should that man have fainted? But he did, and right across my path by the wall, so that I had to creep over him every time!
For outside you have to creep on the ground, and everything is green instead of yellow.
To jump out of the window would be admirable exercise, but the bars are too strong even to try.
then I got so angry I bit off a little piece at one corner—but it hurt my teeth.
I see her on that long road under the trees, creeping along, and when a carriage comes she hides under the blackberry vines.
But I know she was studying that pattern, and I am determined that nobody shall find it out but myself!
"What is it, little girl?"
