Why, Nelly, said her aunt,
gpt
May we play with them here?
human
I am afraid you will be in Sally's way,
gpt
She can wait, then, till we are done,
human
No, said her aunt;
gpt
Can't we go up in Willie's play room, then?
human
Yes, my dear; there is a large case up there, which will make a nice play house for Nelly. You can have one shelf for the parlor, and put these little sofas and chairs in it. Then have another for the closet, and set out the cups and saucers. You and your cousin may carry them up stairs; and when Margie comes home, she will love to help you arrange them.
gpt
O mamma, see this pretty carriage!
human
That's a pedler's wagon, said Nelly.
gpt
There is the front seat for him to sit on, and the top comes way over to keep off the rain. The horses can take out too. When I first had it, I used to play 'get to the tavern, and put them up in the barn.'
human
O Nelly! exclaimed the little fellow,
gpt
I'm tired,
human
I'll carry the things up then, said Frankie, running into the next room for a basket.
gpt
See, I'm real strong.
human
If you are tired, you had better go and lie down on the lounge,
gpt
No, said Nelly;
human
I want to stay here, and see Sally put away my clothes.
