Madam How and Lady Why

CHAPTER I--THE GLEN
3/31

But that sight, I believe, would not make us proud, as if we had had some great privilege.

No, my dear child: it would make us feel smaller, and meaner, and more stupid and more ignorant than we had ever felt in our lives before; at the same time it would make us wiser than ever we were in our lives before--that one glimpse of the great glory of her whom we call Lady Why.
But I will say more of her presently.

We must talk first with Madam How, and perhaps she may help us hereafter to see Lady Why.

For she is the servant, and Lady Why is the mistress; though she has a Master over her again--whose name I leave for you to guess.

You have heard it often already, and you will hear it again, for ever and ever.
But of one thing I must warn you, that you must not confound Madam How and Lady Why.
