Chapter IX
He'd build a new barn and buy them a new carriage. His heart glowed again, and his lips softened into their usual feminine grace--lips a little full and falling easily into curves. The old German woman came in at length, bringing some cakes and a bowl of milk, smiling broadly and hospitably as she waddled forward. "Ach! Goot!" he said, smacking his lips over the pleasant draught.
