"I say, Molly, look at the frog I bringed you!" he exclaimed as he came close under the sill, which is not high from the ground. "If you put your face down to the mud and sing something to 'em, they'll come out of their holes. A beetle comed, too, but I couldn't ketch 'em both. Lift me up, and I can put him in the waterglass on your table." He held up one muddy hand to me, and promptly I lifted him up into my arms. From the embrace in which he and the frog and I indulged my lace and cambric came out much the worse. "Yis. It ole Dido," she said. "But ole Dido not lost. Dat great massa, he look after ole Dido." "Y—yes," responded Patricia dubiously. "But I'll never be an artist. I sort of felt that long ago, but now I'm dead certain of it, and it seems like a sham to haul out that effort in the face of Elinor's splendid work.".

That maddened me, and I would have done anything to make him think I was not the foolish thing he evidently had classified me as being. Comrades of the hooting owl, Elinor gave a hasty assent, but Patricia was ardent. "I'll let you open the door—for luck, Judy," he said, holding out a key. "See if you can guess which door it belongs to.".
