People were still wearing those big evening gowns. The girls who were little were in their rooms. Christina was the youngest, age 12.
So, Christina was in her room with her cat feeding it cream.
All the girls and boys of town gathered at once all around. A merry festival to bestow to the people here below. They played jump rope and bridges of town, for all the people are falling down! Christina joined in in merry well, everyone else she thought could just go to Hell. Instead she fell, and the youngest was picked up. No reason but accepted it was enough.
