UNFAIR

Haha

Teddy says a good sport never whines over losing.

UNFAIR

"I am reading The Alhambra.

Tales of the Alhambra (1832) is a collection of essays, verbal sketches and stories by American author Washington Irving (1783–1859) inspired by, and partly written during, his 1828 visit to the palace/fortress complex known as the Alhambra in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tales_of_the_Alhambra

Teddy lent me Hans Andersons stories.

Hans Christian Andersen (2 April 1805 – 4 August 1875) was a Danish author. Although a prolific writer of plays, travelogues, novels, and poems, he is best remembered for his literary fairy tales. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Christian_Andersen

Mrs John Killegrew

Haha

"Jimmy Ball

Haha - like a fairy wish.

"Ilse

we went up in the garret and talked about God,

Haha - eating is more important than the Commandment.

she doesnt believe in Him most of the time and doesnt like to talk about Him but still wants to find out about Him.

Haha - cf. Pascal’s wager: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal%27s_wager

Simile

It was not stealing it was just forgetting.

I think the garden is just as pretty in winter as in summer.

by moonlight it is like dreamland.

"There is a beautiful fringe of isikles along the cook-house roof. But there will be much more beautiful things in heaven.

Anzonetta

See p. 78 and note. Also ends with P.S. E.B.S.

Haha - clever girl, recognizes “dearest” is a superlative comparison.

Emily

Ilse

Haha narrator takes sides.

Miss Brownell

her black head

Haha

a flight with the muses.

she had one of those petty natures which never forget or forgive any offence.

TERRIBLE

p. 61

UNFAIR

watch the old spruces where the Wind Woman played, the long, grey-green trails of moss hanging from the branches, like banners of Elfland,

Simile

Just to look at it thrilled Emily with a delight that was unutterable but which she yet must try to utter.

The burden - and ecstasy - of a true poet.

HORRIBLE

Simile ouch

Rhoda Stuart

Jennie Strang,

I wish the bears that ate the naughty children in the Bible would come and eat you."

Haha clever girl. 2 Kings 2:23-24 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Kings%202%3A23-24&version=NIV;KJV

To ridicule a pupil always gave her pleasure

Miss Brownell was very fond of ridiculing her pupils. p. 64
