Little Women; or, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy • Paragraph 4227
Stage 1 of 6

Read it through once

"O my dearest boy, don't, don't say that! I forgot you were rich when I said 'Yes.' I'd have married you if you hadn't a penny, and I sometimes wish you _were_ poor that I might show how much I love you;" and Amy, who was very dignified in public and very fond in private, gave convincing proofs of the truth of her words.
