You must pick the apples.”,"It is too much to ask, but I dread being alone," he goes on, with a quick shudder of fear and repulsion.

After a little brandy and water had been poured between the ashen lips, Mr Lawrence opened his eyes. They opened full upon his father, whose face was stooped close to him.
