I only changed part of the last name to Royanna." "Why, it's just like a fairy tale," Rod exclaimed. "But, no, it isn't, either," he mused. "A fairy tale is only a make-believe, while this is really true. It's better than a fairy tale. Isn't it great!" and his eyes sparkled. "But, say, do grandad and grandma know about it?" "Yes, dear. I told them last night." "And I bet they were pleased."
"I think that's all either of us can do, Nance, and I must go. I have to say good-bye to Clytie yet. The poor soul is convinced that I have become a Unitarian and that there's a conspiracy to keep the horrible truth from her. She says grandad evaded her questions about it.

So easy it is to talk sweetly and properly when you have no great trouble and all your little troubles are well arranged! Women cannot comfort women. No, they can not!

"No, you certainly are not, dear." "And I shouldn't be in the Poor House?" "No, no. You are just where you should be, with grandad and me." "And my father and mother are not bad, and I wouldn't be ashamed of them if I saw them?" "No, not at all. I never heard of your father, so I think he must be dead. But I believe that your mother is a good, noble woman." "Why doesn't she come to see me, then?"

"Will you write him a letter, grandad?" "I think you had better do it yourself. This is your business, and you must carry it through from beginning to the end." It took Rod some time to write that letter.
'We couldn't expect the Bowers to keep him there if he couldn't pay his rent. But I always hope that we shall be able to find what he needs. It isn't much, poor grandad! And you see we can always manage to save something, Thyrza. 'But it wouldn't be enough nothing like enough for a room and meals, Lyddy. 'Oh, we shall find a way Perhaps' she laughed 'we shall have more money some day.
