"What will she do for their laughter and plays, / Chattering nonsense, and sweet saucy ways? "
I will now try to go straight on with my story. But I cannot help saying I do not find it quite so easy as I thought. It is so very difficult to keep things in order and not to put in bits that have no business to come for ever so much longer. I think after this I shall always be even more obliged than I have been to people that write stories, for really when you come to do it, it isn't nearly so easy as you'd think, though to _read_ the stories, it seems as if everything in them came just of itself without the least trouble.
