"... they (Laura and Mary) knelt down together and said, 'Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take' and please bless Pa and Me and Carrie and everybody and make me a good girl forever'n'ever. Amen." Quickly Laura added, in her own head, "And please make me only glad about the Christmas horses for ever'n'ever amen, again."
