“That is fair,” we say of a rhymed page that sounds as if it might have been indited to the fair Caroline and she only. But the maestra curls her lip contemptuously and utters “umph!

Four o’clock struck, and I and my young companions were setting out when the maestra stopped us. “Where are you going?” she said; “to hear a sermon? These girls must not go without leave.”[…]The manager used to watch as she passed with her Bible in her hand, and tell her that she must never bring that book to the factory. She told him she had a right to bring her Bible to read in the intervals of her work, and she would do it, come what might. The maestra used to tell her that she would turn her out if she ever brought a book or tract with her; but Antonia conciliated her with little attentions, and now the woman has actually bought a New Testament for herself.
