"Wait till you try it, dear child. The first time I ever got the fever taught me a lot. It wasn't love, of course." "When you loved Violet?" she asked in low tones. "Oh Lord no! This was a little French girl who picked me up when I was squiffed after I'd passed the First. About twenty of us all from St. Crispin's had been up for the First.
And all these scrubby hedges, stone walls, fountains, flower-beds, cedar freaks, my God, Perce, I'd hate to come home a little squiffed if I lived in that house of yours, 'specially at night. Look at old Pedro and Philippa over there, setting out that stuff that looks like sparrowgrass. And that prize job of Ed Keller's, my God, A. A., what good is a dog kennel on this island?

He was squiffed because Mr. Wharton didn't take him, that's all. He thinks he ought to be ahead of everyone." "Well, I didn't ask to be chosen. I'm glad I was, of course, but I didn't expect to be. I think perhaps Leslie Franklin asked Mr. Wharton to take me." "Of course he did! Why shouldn't he?" Just then the coming of the train cut them short.
