'And do you, Co-rinne, she says just that away, like you used to say 'do you, Corinne, come and set on this velvet settee with me and Doctor, and listen to this here founting play. And I felt sad someways and I says, 'Oh, no, ma'am, it's all a mistake me being here, and these clo'es mustn't belong to a workin'-girl like me.
Kern knew nothing of the articles, of any situation: and at that Co-rinne, her heart ran to water within her. She would have said anything for that. "Oh, ma'am, all say it's the nicest place to work in town. Yes, ma'am ... And some of 'em has rich fathers and needn't work at all anywhere, but they just go on and work at the Works, yes, ma'am, because they druther ..."
And conversation, now that the ice was broken, she eagerly desired, fascinated by the thought that this girl knew at first-hand everything about the Works. "Let me see your name is Corinne, isn't it?" Kern's eyes, wider than ever, shot back to the lady's face. A new wonder here! Miss Heth said it just like in the Dream: Co-rinne. "Yes, ma'am," said Co-rinne, with a little gulp and a sniff.
Or the secret shrinking behind that, but surprised at last? Or was it the knowledge of a beautiful delicacy shown by this little girl before to-day? Miss Heth's arm was about her neck, and her voice, which was so pretty even when you could hardly hear it, said, true as true: "I think you've been a lady all along, Co-rinne." And then the bands about Kern's heart snapped, and she could cry....
I might go to school some day, I says, 'and be a writer sort of, mebbe; but I ain't a lady, ma'am, Miss Heth, no, nor never will be. And Miss Heth she takes my face between her hands yes, sir, she did, Mr. V.V., right there before 'em all and she says, kind of surprised, 'Why, Co-rinne, I thought Doctor he told you long ago, she says.
