When I call to mind the day my father inveigled me into the library and sort of told me I couldn't do better than go in for Lilias, my knees give way beneath me and smite each other with fear. I shudder to think what part in her mediæval programme would have been allotted to me.",“Why in the world should Nils lend you his blouse?”,Lou laughed, "What's he up to now, Billy?","Then, no doubt, she heaped upon you priceless gems of Irish wit in her mother-tongue?","Not Dido.
