"What does go on?"
"You'll know soon enough."
"I'm not marked with it. I've got a birthmark, but it's a strawberry, on my left side, like the princesses have in the fairy tales."
"You are a kind of a princess, Miss Judy."
"Is that a bad thing to be, Nana?"
"It's a lonesome thing."
"My strawberry's fading. Mother says it will go away."
"It won't go away. What we're born to be, we will be, Miss Judy——. Bless your heart, you're crying, with the big eyes of you. What for, dear?"
"I don't know. I don't want to be a princess. I don't want to be lonesome. I hate the Everards."
"Well, there's many to say that now, and there'll be more to say it soon." Norah muttered this darkly, into her yellow bowl of apples, but Judith heard: "Here, eat this apple, child. You musn't hate anybody."
