Description
Excerpt: It is not generally known that the Lady of Shalott lived last summer in an attic, at the east end of South Street. The wee?est, thinnest, whitest little lady! And yet the brightest, stillest, and ah, such a smiling little lady! If you had held her up by the window for she could not hold up herself she would have hung like a porcelain transparency in your hands. And if you had said, laying her gently down, and giving the tears a smart dash, that they should not fall on her lifted face, ?Poor child!? the Lady of Shalott would have said, ?Oh, don?t? and smiled. And you would have smiled yourself, for very surprise that she should outdo you; and between the two there would have been so much smiling done that one would have fairly thought that it was a delightful thing to live last summer in an attic at the east end of South Street.
