Then I went to the Playmate's room, and before the niche where her little Prie-Dieu had stood, I kneeled me down and said such a prayer as at the moment I could compass. But little was needed. For I think God in heaven Himself was praying for us both that day. When I went forth into the square, few there were who knew or remembered me, but all knew my attire.
We may add that the pastrycook is by no means disposed to institute a legal process against the delinquent, as the children of the gentleman to whom we allude are honest enough to acknowledge their four-footed playmate's failings to papa, who willingly compensates any damage the pastrycook may sustain from the petty depredations of the would-be philanthropic cat.
Fat Fritz, the porter, in his arm-chair of a cell, had well-nigh dissolved into lard and running out at his own door. The Playmate's window was open, and I caught the waft of a fan to and fro. I judged therefore that my lady knew well that I was working out there in the heat, and was glad of it being a spiteful pretty minx.
"If you would take just a little corn it would not matter, but I have seen a field ruined by your tribe and I know it cannot be permitted."

"Money life!" echoed Luis, clinging to his playmate's waist and peeping over his shoulder. The horse was rearing and plunging more dangerously each second, and both women rushed to the rescue of the imperiled children, who realized nothing of their danger, but shouted and screamed the louder the more frantic their steed became.

"Amanda's ashamed; that's what's the matter with her," declared Amos boldly. Amanda's sobs stopped, and she looked at her brother with startled eyes.
