I have a great deal of difficulty in beginning to write my portionof these pages, for I know I am not clever. I always knew that. Ican remember, when I was a very little girl indeed, I used to sayto my doll when we were alone together, "Now, Dolly, I am notclever, you know very well, and you must be patient with me, like adear!" And so she used to sit propped1 up in a great arm-chair,with her beautiful complexion2 and rosy3 lips, staring at me--or notso much at me, I think, as at nothing--while I busily stitched awayand told her every one of my secrets.

  My dear old doll! I was such a shy little thing that I seldomdared to open my lips, and never dared to open my heart, to anybodyelse.

She was handsome; and ifshe had ever smiled, would have been (I used to think) like anangel--but she never smiled. She was always grave and strict. Shewas so very good herself, I thought, that the badness of otherpeople made her frown all her life. I felt so different from her,even making every allowance for the differences between a child anda woman; I felt so poor, so trifling5, and so far off that I nevercould be unrestrained with her--no, could never even love her as Iwished. It made me very sorry to consider how good she was and howunworthy of her I was, and I used ardently6
