The woods were full of shadows one june evening just before

eight o'clock although a bright sunset still glimmered fainty

among the trunks of the trees. A little girl was driving her cow

home. The cow was a plodding slow and annoying creature,

but still a valuable companion. They were going away from the

Western light and were heading deep into the woods. But their

feet were familiar with the path, and it didn't matter if their

eyes could see it or not.

Adapted from Sarah Orne Jewer's A White Heron "1886.
