- I thought I was dreaming; and when things began to come back to
me they seemed to come up dim out of last week. - It made my eyes water a little to remember her crying there all by herself in the night.
- I went down the rod away in the night, and slipped around front, and see her setting there by her candle in the window with her eyes towards the road and the tears in them; and I wished I could do something for her, but I couldn't, only to swear that I wouldn't never do nothing to grieve her any more.
