We were all three ludicrously amazed at. the sudden metamophose that had taken place. Teecie was too simple not to show that she felt the change in herself, felt it keenly, with a strange delight and a strange shyness. Nurse had so long been accustomed to use her as a child that she stood bewildered. As for me, I was first frightened at what 1 had done, then enchanted, then foolishly awkward, and almost as shy as Teecie herself.
