“Hector, the big St. Bernard”
“To be picked and played with”
Finally, there were the flowers, yellow and purple and white, which must be picked and played with.
“She rolled about, tossing the Bright Pebbles”
Days when there was not a bit of wind, and the sun was shining brightly, AH-NI-GHI´-TO took her sun bath out of doors. A deerskin was spread on the gravel, to keep the sharp stones from hurting the tender little limbs, and on this, with all her clothes taken off, she rolled about, tossing the bright pebbles and talking to the sun, the puppies, and the flowers, till her skin was rosy as the morning. So all through the summer months—June, July, and well into August—AH-NI-GHI´-TO passed the sunny days.
