Take some, she said.
gpt
They are the best I've had since I left Kentucky.

Thanks, said Fidelia, stiffly, screwing around on the piano-stool, and helping herself to just one. But feeling the warmth of Lloyd's cordial tone, urging her to take more, she thawed into smiling friendliness, and took several.
gpt
They are delicious! she exclaimed.
human
You got them at the cake shop on the corner, didn't you? There are two awfully nice American girls stopping at this hotel who took me in there one day for some. They've been in Kentucky, too. The one named Elizabeth lives there.
gpt
Why, it must be Betty and Eugenia! cried Lloyd.
human
The very girls we came here to meet. Do _you_ know them?
gpt
Not very well. We've only been here a few days. But I dearly love the one you call Betty. She came into my room one night when I had the tooth-ache, and brought a spice poultice and a hot-water bag. Mamma was at a concert, and Fanchette was cross, and I was so miserable and lonesome I wanted to die. But Elizabeth knew exactly what to do to stop the pain, and then she stayed and talked to me for a long time. She told me about a house party she went to last year, where the girls all caught the measles at a gypsy camp, and she nearly went blind on account of it.

That was _my_ house pahty, exclaimed the Little Colonel,

And are _you_ the Little Colonel! she cried.

From what Elizabeth said, I thought she was pretty near an angel!
gpt
Betty is certainly the loveliest girl in the world, and--
human
There she is now!
gpt
Oh, they'll be so surprised! said Lloyd, looking back with a radiant face as she ran toward the door.
human
We came two whole days earlier than they expected!
