 "I do think it was the most fortunate thing in the world that those children should have the measles1 just now," said Meg, one April day, as she stood packing the "go abroady" trunk in her room, surrounded by her sisters.
 
"And so nice of Annie Moffat not to forget her promise. A whole fortnight of fun will be regularly splendid," replied Jo, looking like a windmill, as she folded skirts with her long arms.
 
105 "And such lovely weather; I'm so glad of that," added Beth, tidily sorting neck and hair ribbons in her best box, lent for the great occasion.
 
"I wish I was going to have a fine time, and wear all these nice things," said Amy, with her mouth full of pins, as she artistically2 replenished3 her sister's cushion.
 
"I wish you were all going; but, as you can't, I shall keep my adventures to tell you when I come back. I'm sure it's the least I can do, when you have been so kind, lending me things, and helping4 me get ready," said Meg, glancing round the room at the very simple outfit5, which seemed nearly perfect in their eyes.
 
"What did mother give you out of the treasure-box?" asked Amy, who had not been present at the opening of a certain cedar6 chest, in which Mrs. March kept a few relics7 of past splendor8, as gifts for her girls when the proper time came.
 
"A pair of silk stockings, that pretty carved fan, and a lovely blue sash. I wanted the violet silk; but there isn't time to make it over, so I must be contented9 with my old tarlatan."
