"She couldn't do it all at once. Such a stretch of fancy requires thought.",There is one exercise here on page twenty that I hate worst of all. 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." If I do, I get warm and happy all over. I try when I get hungry to think of myself in that blue muslin dress.,"Go back once more," said the young man, "and tell Three Bulls to send me that young woman."，"My queen lacks nothing," says Geoffrey.

Put on your wraps again."，"Well, I will go," he says, "on one condition,—that you come with me."，Patricia found the Haldens, mother and daughters, so much to her mind that she was full of regret that she had not met them earlier.

Mr Lawrence viewed the old lady with silent astonishment.,“Oh go on Betty, a daddy-long-legs’d die of starvin’ on what you eat.”,"So it is a performance, after all?" said David, carelessly.,"It is not a bad name in Ireland. There are very good people of that name: the Vincent Scullys,—everybody has heard of them," says Violet, gently. But her friend will not consent to believe anything that may soften the thought of Mona. The girl has entrapped her son, has basely captured him and made him her own beyond redemption; and what words can be bad enough to convey her hatred of the woman who has done this deed?,"Now young man," he said grimly, grasping one of Billy's hands and pulling it forward and out, "I'm going to drive that happy smile from your face.",“What’s the matter, Billy? Why don’t you go and play? You surely deserve a fine holiday, my big, big son.” She put her arm around him tenderly; and he saw that she remembered. He would be thirteen to-morrow.

I’ve tried to be brave so God would bring her back to me; but my braveness isn’t very strong yet, or I wouldn’t cry so, would I?” she questioned, with a teary little smile.,"Upon my word, you're a classy young 'un," she grinned. "Come again soon and give us some more.","And this is what I would say: in one year from this I will marry you, if"—with a faint tremble in her tone—"you then still care to marry me. But not before.".
