My sister flew to Arizona on Friday for a 12 day visit, so Friday was a washout writing-wise, but I got
the other five days in. Here is a new sampling from The Lady and the Minstrel.
Monday: Marguerite
joined her in searching through the little carved casket where Marguerite kept
her ribbons.
Tuesday: She always
suspected he had gone off someplace alone to weep, for he would have thought it
weakness to do so before others, even his granddaughter.
Wednesday: “If you
thought I did not care, then I did not kiss you soundly enough in the woods.”
Thursday: He asked
me if I had a wife and when I said no, he said I was too young and they must
look elsewhere, but Lady Helen exclaimed that my song enchanted her—it was a
fairy song my mother taught me—and she said I must not heed her stuffy husband
and that she would not allow me to say her nay.
Friday:
Saturday: She wanted
to know he was near her, not somewhere lost in throngs of the great city of
London.
