The caging of stones rarely works. It's not much use as a vandal deterrent, nor does it stop the stones wandering to a pool for a midsummer drink. Who do iron railings save them from? Faeries? No, we must do better than spiked encirclement. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

Bear's Sisters didn't light the fire. They tucked Mouse into bed & washed her face & paws & brought her some sweet lime blossom tea. Then they read to her, long, quiet poems by William Cullen Bryant ("Go, rock the little wood-bird in his nest"), until she fell deeply asleep.

Mouse was having a very bad day. The Bears had been busy at chapel, & she had gone for a walk alone in the cold. From the hill, she looked across the river to the village & the sea beyond. What a mess I've made of everything, she said to herself, what a mess I've made of my life.
