Ah
,
there
are
different
sorts
of
engineering
--
making
road
and
bridges
and
tunnels
is
one
kind
.
And
making
fortifications
is
another
.
Well
,
we
must
be
turning
back
.
And
,
remember
,
you
are
n't
to
worry
about
doctor
's
bills
or
you
'll
be
ill
yourself
,
and
then
I
'll
send
you
in
a
bill
as
long
as
the
aqueduct
.
"
When
Bobbie
had
parted
from
the
Doctor
at
the
top
of
the
field
that
ran
down
from
the
road
to
Three
Chimneys
,
she
could
not
feel
that
she
had
done
wrong
.
She
knew
that
Mother
would
perhaps
think
differently
.
But
Bobbie
felt
that
for
once
she
was
the
one
who
was
right
,
and
she
scrambled
down
the
rocky
slope
with
a
really
happy
feeling
.
Phyllis
and
Peter
met
her
at
the
back
door
.
They
were
unnaturally
clean
and
neat
,
and
Phyllis
had
a
red
bow
in
her
hair
.
There
was
only
just
time
for
Bobbie
to
make
herself
tidy
and
tie
up
her
hair
with
a
blue
bow
before
a
little
bell
rang
.
"
There
!
"
said
Phyllis
,
"
that
's
to
show
the
surprise
is
ready
.
Now
you
wait
till
the
bell
rings
again
and
then
you
may
come
into
the
dining-room
.
"
So
Bobbie
waited
.
"
Tinkle
,
tinkle
,
"
said
the
little
bell
,
and
Bobbie
went
into
the
dining-room
,
feeling
rather
shy
.
Directly
she
opened
the
door
she
found
herself
,
as
it
seemed
,
in
a
new
world
of
light
and
flowers
and
singing
.
Mother
and
Peter
and
Phyllis
were
standing
in
a
row
at
the
end
of
the
table
.
The
shutters
were
shut
and
there
were
twelve
candles
on
the
table
,
one
for
each
of
Roberta
's
years
.
The
table
was
covered
with
a
sort
of
pattern
of
flowers
,
and
at
Roberta
's
place
was
a
thick
wreath
of
forget-me-nots
and
several
most
interesting
little
packages
.
And
Mother
and
Phyllis
and
Peter
were
singing
--
to
the
first
part
of
the
tune
of
St.
Patrick
's
Day
.
Roberta
knew
that
Mother
had
written
the
words
on
purpose
for
her
birthday
.
It
was
a
little
way
of
Mother
's
on
birthdays
.
It
had
begun
on
Bobbie
's
fourth
birthday
when
Phyllis
was
a
baby
.
Bobbie
remembered
learning
the
verses
to
say
to
Father
'
for
a
surprise
.
'
She
wondered
if
Mother
had
remembered
,
too
.
The
four-year-old
verse
had
been
:
--
Daddy
dear
,
I
'm
only
four
And
I
'd
rather
not
be
more
.
