Isn’t it interesting, Aunt Grenertsen? Isn’t it a beauty?”,Mona turns pale.,“Yes, but it is so sad.”,Mr. Johnston then briefly stated to his pupils that a mistake had been made. He did not say that he was sorry. That would have been an untruth. He did say that Billy deserved another whipping for lying, but under the circumstances he would excuse him, as he had already received unmerited punishment.，“What for?” she asked.，"I'm going to write!" she declared, dramatically waving the stocking about. "This is truly inspiring!"，“This isn’t anything,” growled Jerry, and then they went on again in silence.Through the Stygian darkness of the loft loomed the figure of Mrs. Wopp, a white apron of huge dimensions indicating her presence. She made as though to descend the ladder.
