About the Book

AN IDYL OF THE ROAD aroline rocked herself back and forth from her waist, defying the uncompromisingly straight chair which inclosed her portly little person. Bounded n th north by Massjoosetts; bounded n th north by Massjoosetts; bounded n th north by Massjoosetts, she intoned in a monotonous chant. But her eyes were not upon the map; like those of the gentleman in the poem, they were with her heart, and that was far away. Out of the window the spring was coming on, in waves of tree-bloom and bright grass; the birds bickered sweetly in the sun-patches; everything was reaching on tiptoe for the delicious thrill of MayȔand she was bounding Connecticut! It was idiotic. What was a knowledge of the uninteresting limits of her native State compared to that soft fresh wind on her cheek, that indescribable odor of brown earth? Two fat birds descended with a twitter into a crystal rain-pool, and bathed, with splashes of spray; Carolines feet itched in her ribbed stockings. A soiled and freckled boy, bare from the knees, whistled by the window, jangling a can of bait, his pole balanced prettily on one ragged shoulder. As he reached the puddle, a pure inconsequence of good feeling seized him, and he splashed deliberately in it, grinning around him. Caroline mechanically bent and unbuttoned the top button of her stout boots. He caught her eye. Where you going? she called through the glass. Oh, I dnoȔanywheres, I guess! he answered invitingly. Want to come? I cant. I have to go to school, she said shortly. And so ought heȔyou ought to be ashamed of yourself, calling through the window to that Simms boy! cried a disgusted voice. Caroline twitched her shoulder spitefully. A great girl like you, too! Why, hes no better than a common tramp, that boy, proceeded the voice. Look at his clothes! Nobody wears good clothes to go fishing, Caroline grumbled. I wish he had mine! Fishing! He never wears them anywhere. He hasnt got them to wear. And hed be glad enough to get yours, I can tell you. He wouldnt do any such thing! He told me Saturday hed rather be a dog than a girl; hed get more use of his legs! There was a scandalized silence. Caroline waited grimly. What are you doing? said the voice at last. Studying my jography, she replied. Well, mind you do, then. I cant, if everybody talks to me all the time, she muttered sullenly. Nevertheless she resumed her rocking and crooning. Bounded n th east by Rho Disland; bounded n th east by Rho Disland; bounded n th east by Rho Disland. The housemaid appeared just under the window, dragging a small step-ladder and a pail of glistening, soapy water. Her head was coifed in a fresh starched towel, giving her the appearance of a holy sister of some clean blue-and-white order; her eyes were large and mournful. She appealed instantly to Carolines imagination. Oh, Katy, what a lovely Mother Superior you would make! she cried enthusiastically. Im a Presbyterian, Miss Carline, said Katy reprovingly....
