And Tiny and Baby truly believed that it was the only wedding that had ever been since the world began; only it wasn't though.
And Tiny wore his blue suit; and Baby her clean white frock.
And Tiny was rather excited and very shy; and Baby very excited and rather shy.
And everybody was there, only the Commander-in-Chief; and he sent Cooey with a writing instead.
And Baby's mother sat in the front pew on the left and cried; and Tiny's mother in the front pew on the right and cried. But Tiny's mother cried most, for she cried all the time; but Baby's mother smiled in between, and especially when Baby came up on the arm of the Colonel, her great friend.
And the Fellows lined the aisle with swords.
And they didn't cry, because they had no tears: they looked silly instead, but not sillier than the others, of whom there were lots, besides ladies.
And the Junior Subaltern looked silliest of all because he was so pink; and all the time going pinker, because of the ladies. And he did want to marry them all, because of his kind heart; but he knew he couldn't, because you mayn't.
And when he thought of that he went quite pale, so that they took him out, and gave him a drop of lime-juice and water off a feather in the porch, while the people crept out to see.
Then they all came out of Church.
