Excerpt from The Wolf
Both she and the farmer's wife, and the home coming horses outside, had the pleasantest sense that to-morrow would be Sunday; a time when tired arms relax, and tired fingers know that exquisite pleasure of doing nothing, which is kept, by a most humane Providence, for the working folk.
