"Just what we've done before, motherums!" said Barbara, more bravely than she felt. "The next one is somewhere. Like Tupper's 'wife of thy youth, she must be 'now living upon the earth. In fact, I don't doubt there's a long line of them yet, threaded in and out among the rest of humanity, all with faces set by fate toward our back door. There's always a coming woman, in that direction at least."
Bobby was dimly conscious of two old-fashioned borders of flowers edging their path. A light shone out of a casement window on the ground floor which was open. True ran up to it and put her head in. 'We're back, motherums, and we've brought dad's little boy with us. Then she thumped impatiently upon the door till it was opened by an oldish woman.
And then Nobbles said he came away "'cause nobody wanted me back," and I'm never going to leave my father no more! 'Dad is going to see your grandmother now. Motherums told him he ought to. Do get up and come and see my rabbits. Oh! Here is Margot! Margot appeared with a breakfast tray, and Bobby lay still and ate an egg and some bread and butter with relish.
'Oh! very good to-day; I've been following you in thought all the time. You see, Bobby, I have to lie here on my back, and my truant and wanderer go out to seek adventures, and come back and amuse me by telling me all they have seen and heard. Then I mend them up, and send them out again, and that's how we spend our life. 'Motherums hasn't always lived on her back, put in True eagerly.
You know sometimes I make Nobbles do naughty things, but sometimes' here the twinkle came into the brown eyes 'sometimes Nobbles puts naughty things in my head. He whispers them to me in bed. 'That isn't Nobbles, said True, in her downright fashion, 'that's the Devil, isn't it, motherums? 'No, asserted Bobby, 'it's Nobbles, all by himself. P'raps Satan may have whispered to him first.
