To
explain
Miss
St.
John
's
amazement
one
must
recall
that
a
new
pupil
is
,
for
a
short
time
,
a
somewhat
uncertain
thing
;
and
of
this
new
pupil
the
entire
school
had
talked
the
night
before
until
it
fell
asleep
quite
exhausted
by
excitement
and
contradictory
stories
.
A
new
pupil
with
a
carriage
and
a
pony
and
a
maid
,
and
a
voyage
from
India
to
discuss
,
was
not
an
ordinary
acquaintance
.
"
My
name
's
Ermengarde
St.
John
,
"
she
answered
.
"
Mine
is
Sara
Crewe
,
"
said
Sara
.
"
Yours
is
very
pretty
.
It
sounds
like
a
story
book
.
"
"
Do
you
like
it
?
"
fluttered
Ermengarde
.
"
I
--
I
like
yours
.
"
Miss
St.
John
's
chief
trouble
in
life
was
that
she
had
a
clever
father
.
Sometimes
this
seemed
to
her
a
dreadful
calamity
.
If
you
have
a
father
who
knows
everything
,
who
speaks
seven
or
eight
languages
,
and
has
thousands
of
volumes
which
he
has
apparently
learned
by
heart
,
he
frequently
expects
you
to
be
familiar
with
the
contents
of
your
lesson
books
at
least
;
and
it
is
not
improbable
that
he
will
feel
you
ought
to
be
able
to
remember
a
few
incidents
of
history
and
to
write
a
French
exercise
.
Ermengarde
was
a
severe
trial
to
Mr.
St.
John
.
He
could
not
understand
how
a
child
of
his
could
be
a
notably
and
unmistakably
dull
creature
who
never
shone
in
anything
.
"
Good
heavens
!
"
he
had
said
more
than
once
,
as
he
stared
at
her
,
"
there
are
times
when
I
think
she
is
as
stupid
as
her
Aunt
Eliza
!
"
If
her
Aunt
Eliza
had
been
slow
to
learn
and
quick
to
forget
a
thing
entirely
when
she
had
learned
it
,
Ermengarde
was
strikingly
like
her
.
She
was
the
monumental
dunce
of
the
school
,
and
it
could
not
be
denied
.
"
She
must
be
MADE
to
learn
,
"
her
father
said
to
Miss
Minchin
.
Consequently
Ermengarde
spent
the
greater
part
of
her
life
in
disgrace
or
in
tears
.
She
learned
things
and
forgot
them
;
or
,
if
she
remembered
them
,
she
did
not
understand
them
.
So
it
was
natural
that
,
having
made
Sara
's
acquaintance
,
she
should
sit
and
stare
at
her
with
profound
admiration
.
"
You
can
speak
French
,
ca
n't
you
?
"
she
said
respectfully
.
