And then Avrillia nearly took her breath away by saying, "Well, then, we'll go up and fit the dollies just for good measure. I know a shop where the loveliest doll clothes may be bought for a trifle." And, would you believe it, that was the first time that Sara had remembered the Baby doll and the Kewpie!
"Now let's play house," so they played house, and each one had a room, there on the grass, with sticks and stones for furniture, and they put the dollies to bed, and woke them up, and took them for a walk, and they made believe wash dishes and get meals, and, oh, I don't know what they didn't do.
"Yes; papa bringed it home yesterday. Does oo like dollies?" "Oh, yes, nice ones like that. You must have lots of fun. I did not finish the sentence. There was a noise in the alley, and the next instant the mad bull came crashing into the garden! For a second I was too surprised to move or speak.
The dollies were, he had found, the most delightful of all playthings for babies and little girls, and often those who could not say "dolly" would call for a "doll" in their sweet baby talk. So Claus resolved to make many dolls, of all sizes, and to dress them in bright-colored clothing.
It was about putting the dollies to sleep in a cat's cradle, and a little mouse came in and awakened them, and then they went out to gather flowers for the honey bees. Just a simple little song, but Sue and her friends sung it very nicely. "And I know something else you can do, Sue, besides being a keeper of wild animals," said Bunny. "What?" asked his sister.
"It is lonely without Raggedy Ann!" said the dollies each night. "We miss her happy painted smile and her cheery ways!" they said. And so the week dragged by.... But, my! What a chatter there was in the nursery the first night after Raggedy Ann returned. All the dolls were so anxious to hug Raggedy Ann they could scarcely wait until Marcella had left them alone.
To be sure, the letters looked a good deal like Jack and Jill, climbing up hill and tumbling down again, still the dolls understood us. There were no little girls invited, because little girls couldn't have squeezed in, unless they were willing to be hung up, like the extra dollies. But oh! wouldn't they have liked to go? We had ice-cream, just made of vanilla, cream-candy, and water, delicious!
"I'll take the dollies," she said. "They're mine, too." A moment later they entered the house. Mary-'Gusta bore three of the dolls. Mr. Hamilton carried the other two, and Isaiah, with the valise in one hand and the basket containing the shrieking David at arm's length in the other, led the way. Captain Shad, after informing them that he would be aboard in a jiffy, drove on to the barn.
Singalongohnay was squeaking out her eternal requiems her new versions of the Psalms and Scriptures her blank verse elegiacs oh! how blank! beginning, 'Night was upon the hills, or 'The evening veil hung low, or, 'It slept, or after some other equally threatening form and fashion I can fancy how the bright eye of Margaret would gleam with scorn; and while the Pollies and Dollies, the Patties and Jennies, the Corydons and Jemmy Jesamies, all round were throwing up hands and eyes in a sort of rapture, how she would look, with what equal surprise and contempt, doubting her own ears, and sickening at the stuff and the strange sycophancy which induced it.
Mars was reconciled with Diana, and Jove, for the sake of domestic peace, packed his little laundress off into a constellation. And finally they extricated Love from his black hole, where instead of conjugating the verb AMO he had been busy in the manufacture of "dollies."
