[The Hoosier Schoolmaster by Edward Eggleston]@TWC D-Link bookThe Hoosier Schoolmaster CHAPTER III 1/20
CHAPTER III. MIRANDY, HANK, AND SHOCKY. Mirandy had nothing but contempt for the new master until he developed the bulldog in his character.
Mirandy fell in love with the bulldog. Like many other girls of her class, she was greatly enamored with the "subjection of women," and she stood ready to fall in love with any man strong enough to be her master.
Much has been said of the strong-minded woman.
I offer this psychological remark as a contribution to the natural history of the weak-minded woman. It was at the close of that very second day on which Ralph had achieved his first victory over the school, and in which Mirandy had been seized with her desperate passion for him, that she told him about it.
Not in words.
