Uncle Max

CHAPTER III
7/18

I shall be free to read the books I like, to study what I choose, or to be idle.

I shall have Sara's cheerful companionship instead of Fraeulein's heavy company; I shall ride; I shall walk in the sunshine; I shall be a butterfly instead of a chrysalis; and if I care to be useful, all sorts of paths will be open to me.' 'There, hold your tongue,' interrupted Jill, with a rough kiss; 'of course I know I am a wicked, ungrateful wretch, and that I ought to be more patient.

Yes, you shall go, Ursula; you are a darling, but I will not want to keep you; you are too good to be wasted on me; it would be like pouring gold into a sieve.

Well, I did cry about it this afternoon, but I won't be such a goose any more.

I will live my life the same way, in spite of all of them, you will see if I don't, Ursula.
