Description
Excerpt from The Girl Who Lost Things
IT was seven O''clock on a fair February evening, and Miss Denison, the head-mistress Of St. Catherine''s School, sank with a Sigh of relief into her favourite chair, and glanced with satisfied eyes at the quaint and dainty restful ness of her study. She loved her work, she loved her girls; but it is possible to have enough even Of what we love, and after a long day spent in teaching every variety of pupil the too strenuous who must be restrained, the lazy who must be goaded on, the nervous, the heedless, the morbidly conscientious - this quiet evening hour, spent alone with her books and her thoughts, was always welcome, and was especially so to-night.
