She was born in that neighbourhood, she informed me, and had been educated by a dear great lady.

Her smile of pleasure on entering the room one morning, and seeing me dressed and sitting in a grand-fatherly chair by the breezy window, was like a salutation of returning health.

My father made another stand against the usurper of his privileges; he refused to go out.
'Then must I go,' said Lieschen, 'for two are not allowed here.' 'No! don't leave me,' I begged of her, and stretched out my hands for hers, while she gazed sadly from the doorway.

'Hum-oh!' He went forthwith a murmured groan.
She deceived me by taking her seat in perfect repose.
After smoothing her apron, 'Now I must go,' she said.
'What! to leave me here alone ?' She looked at the clock, and leaned out of the window.
'Not alone; oh, not alone!' the girl exclaimed.
