How he does call and pound! Now he's crying for an axe. It would be a shame to break down that beautiful door! "John dear!" said I in the gentlest voice, "the key is down by the front steps, under a plantain leaf!" That silenced him for a few moments. Then he said—very quietly indeed, "Open the door, my darling!" HOW HE DOES CALL AND POUND I WAS CRYING FOR AN OX IT WOULD BE A SHAME TO BREAK DOWN THAT BEAUTIFUL DOOR JOHN DEAR I SAID IN THE GENTLEST VOICE THE KEY IS DOWN BY THE FRONT STEPS UNDER A PLANTAIN LEAF THAT SILENCED HIM FOR A FEW MOMENTS THEN HE SAID VERY QUIETLY INDEED OPEN THE DOOR MY DARLING
ut of the window would be admirable exercise, but the bars are too strong even to try. Besides I wouldn’t do it. Of course not. I know well enough that a step like that is improper and might be misconstrued. I don’t like to look out of the windows even—there are so many of those creeping women, and they creep so fast. I wonder if they all come out of that wallpaper as I did? But I am securely fastened now by my well-hidden rope—you don’t get me out in the road there! I suppose I shall have to get back behind the pattern when it comes night, and that is hard! It is so pleasant to be out in this great room and creep around as I please! I don’t want to go outside. I won’t, even if Jennie asks me to. For outside you have to creep on the ground, and everything is green instead of yellow. But here I can creep smoothly on the floor, and my shoulder just fits in that long smooch around the wall, so I cannot lose my way. Why, there’s John at the door! It is no use, young man, you can’t open it!  DO SOMETHING DESPERATE TO JUMP OUT THE WINDOW WOULD BE ADMIRABLE EXERCISE BUT THE BARS ARE TOO STRONG EVEN TO TRY BESIDES I WOULDN'T DO IT OF COURSE NOT I KNOW WELL ENOUGH THAT A STEP LIKE THAT IS IMPROPER AND MIGHT BE MISCONSTRUED I DON'T WANT TO LOOK OUT THE WINDOWS EVEN THERE ARE SO MANY OF THOSE CREEPING WOMEN AND THEY CREEP SO FAST I WONDER IF THEY ALL COME OUT OF THE WALL PAPER AS I DID BUT I AM SECURELY FASTENED NOW BY MY WELL HIDDEN ROPE YOU DON'T GET ME OUT IN THE ROAD THERE I SUPPOSE I SHALL HAVE TO GO BACK BEHIND THE PATTERN WHEN IT COMES NIGHT AND THAT IS HARD IT IS SO PLEASANT TO BE OUT IN THIS GREAT ROOM AND CREEP AROUND AS I PLEASE I DON'T WANT TO GO OUTSIDE I WON'T EVEN IF JENNY ASKS ME TO FOR OUTSIDE YOU HAVE TO CREEP ON THE GROUND AND EVERYTHING IS GREEN INSTEAD OF YELLOW BUT HERE I CAN CREEP SMOOTHLY ON THE FLOOR AND MY SHOULDER JUST FITS IN THAT LONG SMOOCH AROUND THE WALL SO I CANNOT LOSE MY WAY WHY THERE'S JOHN AT THE DOOR IT IS NO USE YOUNG MAN YOU CAN'T OPEN IT
