The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Lost Princess of Oz by L. Frank Baum: but she was having such a good time at the Emerald City that she
seemed in no hurry to go back to the Country of the Yips.
It was several weeks after the dishpan had been restored to the Cookie
Cook when one day, as Dorothy was seated in the royal gardens with
Trot and Betsy beside her, a gray dove came flying down and alighted
at the girl's feet.
"I am Ugu the Shoemaker," said the dove in a
soft, mourning voice, "and I have come to ask you to forgive me for
the great wrong I did in stealing Ozma and the magic that belonged to
her and to others."
"Are you sorry, then?" asked Dorothy, looking hard at the bird.
