O, it is trouble very bad, Which causes us to weep; All last night long we were so sad, Not one of us could sleep. Sometimes they called us all three just the boys. But I don't think that was fair. I may have been rather a tomboy, but I wasn't quite so bad as to be called a boy. I was nine then- I mean I was nine at the beginning of the time I am going to tell you about, and now I am fourteen. Afterwards, I will tell you what put it into my head to write it down. If I told you now you wouldn't understand-at least not without my telling you things all out of their places-ends at the beginning, and middles at the end; and mother says it's an awfully bad habit to do things that way. It makes her quite vexed to see any one read the end of a book before they have really got to it. There aren't many things that make her really vexed, but that's one, and another is saying awfully, and I've just said it, or at least written it. And I can't score it through-I've promised not to score through anything, and just to leave it as it came into my head to write it all down.
