Don't forget that you is a star and a giant." "No, that I aren't," said the child. "Oh, Di! if mother was here she would be disappointed, for I am not a star, nor yet a giant. I'm just the frightenest little boy in the world." "I has thought of a plan," said Diana very calmly. "You shan't wide Pole Star to-morrow; you shall wide G'eased Lightning."
When you see me standing on Pole Star you must stand on your two foots on G'eased Lightning, and when we fly faster and faster you must still keep looking at me, and when I jump through the wings you must do the same, and then, Orion, then, why, it will be over. Now, bend down; I'm going to whisper something to you." Orion bent his ear with deep interest.
Then she looked up at Fortune, and raised her brow in a puzzled manner. "I aren't fwightened of G'eased Lightning," she said. A smile broke over her little face, then the light of reason once more faded, and she entered the dark region of delirium and danger.
He looked at her, pawed the ground restlessly, and then, stooping, licked the sugar off her hand as tenderly as if he were a kitten. "Well, I never!" said Uncle Ben, breathing a great sigh of relief. "It's a beauty horse," repeated Diana; "I like it better nor G'eased Lightning. Pole Star, I's going to wide you; you's a dear, good horse."
"Good boy!" called out Diana; "vedy good little boy. Good horse, G'eased Lightning! you is a vedy good horse. Now then, go faster." Diana gave the whip a crack. The horse looked at her out of his big, intelligent eyes, and began to trot, but still very gently, round and round the circus. "Good boy," repeated Diana; "good horse! Now then, Orion, get up on to yous two foots; don't be fwightened.
Give me that whip." "Oh, but I say, little missy " "Give me that whip," repeated Diana, flashing her eyes up at the man. "I is the gweat Diana and I order you. Give me the whip; I'll slash it; I know how. Ah, here comes G'eased Lightning. Come 'long, you beauty; come 'long, you darlin'."
If I are there, and if I look at G'eased Lightning, he'll be as good as good can be, and you must just keep looking at me, Orion, and do the things that I do.
Now, G'eased Lightning, he'll do anything for me, and so what I say is this let Orion wide him, and if he begins to dance about and get sort of fidgety, why, I'll stwoke him down. You know I could pwactice widing a little on Pole Star in the morning." "To be sure you could, missy."
"But I am nearly as frightened of one horse as the other." "I know G'eased Lightning k'ite well by this time," continued Diana, "and if I are there he'll be gentle. You shall wide him, and I'll wide Pole Star." "But I heard Uncle Ben say that I was to have the other horse." "Never you mind that. What does that si'nify? I'll manage. I'm not fwightened of any horse that ever walked.
