Let us do what he asks, this once; and I dare say he will do what we please the next time--We will go by the high-road to school, and we can come back by the lane, in the cool of the evening.

I'm sure it is much pleasanter here than in the lane; I wish we were to come back this way--I'm sure it is much pleasanter here than in the lane: is not it, Marianne?
gpt

You are not taking the right way to make me think so: you know that I cannot think this dust agreeable.
