Excerpt from The Woman's Kingdom: A Fobe Story

"On, Edna, I am so tired! And this is the very dullest place in all the world?"

"Do you think so, dear? And yet it was the place you specially wanted to go to."

Edna spoke in the soothing, yet cheerful, tone which all people - that is, people like Edna Kenderdine - instinctively use towards an invalid; and, laying down her work - she rarely was without some sort of work in her tiny hands - looked tenderly and anxiously at her sister. For they were twin-sisters: though, as sometimes happens with twins, so excessively unlike that they would scarcely have been supposed akin at all

"You know, Letty, dear, that as soon as you began to get better, the Isle of Wight was the place you fancied for a change."

"Yes: but we might have found many a nicer spot in the Isle of Wight than this - Ryde, for instance, where there are plenty of houses, and a good pier, and probably an esplanade. Oh, how I used to enjoy the Brighton Esplanade in the days when I was a little girl, and we were rich and happy! "

"Were we happy then? I don't remember. But I know I have been quite as happy since."

"You always are happy," returned the invalid, with a vexed air. "I think nothing in the world would make you miserable."

Edna winced a little, but she was sitting in the shadow of the window curtain, and was not seen. "Come, come," she said, "it is of no use quarrelling with me because I will not see the black side of things; time enough for that when we go home to Kensington.
