I was ill, as I have said, and my mother was watching by my bedside. Usually it is Dido who does so. I asked my mother about Dido, and she said that Dido had asked permission to go out for the evening."，Where would they all be now but for her timely entry into the library on that night never to be forgotten, and her influence over the poor dead and gone cousin?
