“Well,” said Rollo, “let us try it.”
“That would be an experiment in intellectual philosophy,” said Mary.
Rollo determined to try the experiment; and then he took Mary’s book, and asked her where her lesson was that day. She found the place, and Rollo read a little. He could not understand it very well, and so he concluded that he would rather have Mary go and study her lesson, and then come down and help him make the experiments of oscillation.
Mary accordingly took her book and went in, and left Rollo at his play.

In about an hour, Mary came down into the yard in pursuit of Rollo, in order to try the experiments which she had proposed.
When Rollo saw her coming, he left his play, and ran to meet her.
