The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Sons and Lovers by D. H. Lawrence: thieves that had been shot. Paul saw some cherry stones hanging
quite bleached, like skeletons, picked clear of flesh. He looked
down again to Miriam.
"Clouds are on fire," he said.
"Beautiful!" she cried.
She seemed so small, so soft, so tender, down there. He threw
a handful of cherries at her. She was startled and frightened.
He laughed with a low, chuckling sound, and pelted her. She ran
for shelter, picking up some cherries. Two fine red pairs she hung
over her ears; then she looked up again.
"Haven't you got enough?" she asked.
