The Rose Garden TITLE OF SOURCE: AUTHOR'S NAME - FIRST: LAST: DESCRIPTION: Visual Text 'Why, dates when I was at particular places, and letters I was supposed to have written, and why I had destroyed some papers; and I recollect his laughing at answers I made in a way that quite daunted me. It doesn't sound much, but I can tell you, Mary, it was really appalling at the time. I am quite certain there was such a man once, and a most horrible villain he must have been. The things he said--'<br><br>'Thank you, I have no wish to hear them. I can go to the links any day myself. How did it end?'<br><br>'Oh, against me; he saw to that. I do wish, Mary, I could give you a notion of the strain that came after that, and seemed to me to last for days: waiting and waiting, and sometimes writing things I knew to be enormously important to me, and waiting for answers and none coming, and after that I came out--'<br><br>'Ah!'<br><br>'What makes you say that? Do you know what sort of thing I saw?'<br><br>'Was it a dark cold day, and snow in the streets, and a fire burning somewhere near you?'<br><br>'By George, it was! You have had the same nightmare! Really not? Well, it is the oddest thing!'
