Seems funny, now; but out on the ocean, coming here, I kept kind of looking forward to hearing you sing. I knew how high your pa had you educated in music, and, like the old fool I was, I kept thinking you'd sing for me some evening—"Sweet [pg 114] Genevieve" mebbe. You know it—don't you?

[slowly]
"Sweet Genevieve?" I used to—but it's rather old-fashioned and common, isn't it?

I expect so; I reckon mebbe that's the reason I like it so much.
[With an apologetic and pathetic laugh.]
Yes'm, it's my favorite. I couldn't—I couldn't get you to sing it for me before I go back home—could I?
