the scene was really very pretty and comfortable,Menn Moncler Reynold, Maggie thought, only she hoped they would soon set out the tea-cups. Everything would be quite charming when she had taught the gypsies to use a washing-basin, and to feel an interest in books. It was a little confusing, though,Chaussures Air Jordan 3 Retro Homme, that the young woman began to speak to the old one in a language which Maggie did not understand,Dortmund Pas Cher, while the tall girl, who was feeding the donkey, sat up and stared at her without offering any salutation. At last the old woman said —
“What! my pretty lady, are you come to stay with us? Sit ye down and tell us where you come from.”
It was just like a story; Maggie liked to be called pretty lady and treated in this way. She sat down and said —
“I’m come from home because I’m unhappy, and I mean to be a gypsy. I’ll live with you if you like, and I can teach you a great many things.”
“Such a clever little lady,” said the woman with the baby sitting down by Maggie, and allowing baby to crawl; “and such a pretty bonnet and frock,Chaussures New Balance CT891,” she added, taking off Maggie’s bonnet and looking at it while she made an observation to the old woman, in the unknown language. The tall girl snatched the bonnet and put it on her own head hind-foremost with a grin; but Maggie was determined not to show any weakness on this subject,Maillot Delph Pas Cher, as if she were susceptible about her bonnet.
“I don’t want to wear a bonnet,” she said; “I’d rather wear a red handkerchief, like yours” (looking at her friend by her side). “My hair was quite long till yesterday, when I cut it off; but I dare say it will grow again very soon,” she added apologetically, thinking it probable the gypsies had a strong prejudice in favor of long hair. And Maggie had forgotten even her hunger at that moment in the desire to conciliate gypsy opinion.
“Oh,Maillot Ribery Pas Cher, what a nice little lady! — and rich, I’m sure,” said the old woman. “Didn’t you live in a beautiful house at home?”
“Yes, my home is pretty,Belstaff New Albatros Jackor, and I’m very fond of the river, where we go fishing, but I’m often very unhappy. I should have liked to bring my books with me,Dame Moncler Fragon, but I came away in a hurry, you know. But I can tell you almost everything there is in my books, I’ve read them so many times, and that will amuse you. And I can tell you something about Geography too — that’s about the world we live in — very useful and interesting. Did you ever hear about Columbus?”
Maggie’s eyes had begun to sparkle and her cheeks to flush — she was really beginning to instruct the gypsies,Canada Goose Chateau Parka, and gaining great influence over them. The gypsies themselves were not without amazement at this talk,Belstaff Icon Kurtki, though their attention was divided by the contents of Maggie’s pocket,Ralph Lauren Pony Polos, which the friend at her right hand had by this time emptied without attracting her notice.
“Is that where you live, my little lady?” said the old woman, at the mention of Columbus.
“Oh, no!” said Maggie,Canada Goose Menn Norge Salg, with some pity; “Columbus was a very wonderful man, who found out half the world, and they put chains on
