Description
Excerpt: I WAS waiting for a tram?car. There was no way of getting on; people were hanging on, jostling one another. Well, simply like wild beasts. Ten tram?cars I let go past. I saw an old woman standing there, like myself, waiting. An ancient grandmother. To look at her face you would have thought that it had always been like that, that she had always been a grandmother; her wrinkles were so minute; she was toothless, and goodness was in her face. I looked more intently; she was standing patiently; did her tired eyes see anything? Yes, they saw. ?Don't leave me to myself,? said to me the grandmother. ?Let us go on the tram together. I simply can?t manage to crowd in.? ?All right,? said I. ?We'll go together. Only we'll have to wait here for some time; I'm no good for pushing, or hanging on.? ?God preserve us from that!? the grandmother interrupted me. Yes, the grandmother saw that she was not alone.
