The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Somebody's Little Girl by Martha Young: that they might go on eating their cakes, for of course the little
girls knew that they must hold their cakes in their hands and wait,
and not eat, when Sister Angela had shaken her head gently at them
while she talked to the two pretty ones. The little brown birds
seemed to know, too, that they could come back to the gravel to look
for crumbs again.
Then, as the little girls were again eating their cakes, one little
girl said: ``Sister Angela, were they Sisters?''
Sister Angela said: ``No, they are not Sisters.''
Then another little girl asked: ``Sister Angela, what were they,
then?''
