You screw up your face tight until you look like a Christmas mask to get your neck muscles taut, and then wobble your head round like a new-born baby until it swims. I did that one twenty extra times and all the others in proportion to make up for those two hours in bed. Hereafter I'll get up at the time directed on page three, or maybe earlier. It frightens me to think that I've got only a few weeks more to turn from a cabbage-rose into a lily. I won't let myself even think "perfect flower" and "scarlet runner."

Look at my muscle here.”,I have contempt for that sort of a woman, and I love Ruth!,"Dear Lady Lilias, I think we have at last nearly taken in all the beauties of your charming room.

"Some brandy and water might bring him to.",“Well, might as well start, I reckon,” said Bob. “This is the first time I’ve ever gone in for an all-day swim.
