The Cover
- Ah-h-h, this beautiful moment, this sublime hour, this whole exquisite day! Doesn’t mother love her children? They are a joy to her, and her love encompasses all the work and care, the headaches and the pains in the neck that accrue to such joy. Nevertheless, ah-h-h! In mother’s ears is a faint, faraway ringing—would it be an echo of the youthful din that has dinned in her ears all summer, or does she think she hears what she is merely imagining, a school bell ringing? Anyway, peace. A dive onto the divan. A blessed wiggling of liberated toes. Coffee—and if she doesn’t drink some in a hurry, she’ll fall asleep and spill it. The husband of artist Amos Sewell’s pretty lady won’t find her when he returns from work; long before that the children will come thundering in.
