I can rest against the tree if I like. When I want to sit down I will sit down, but not before. Bring a rug from the chair.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">He walked to the tree and though Dickon held his arm he was wonderfully steady.

You can do it! I told you you could! You can do it! You can do it! You can!&#8221; She was saying it to Colin because she wanted to make Magic and keep him on his feet looking like that. She could not bear that he should give in before Ben Weatherstaff. He did not give in. She was uplifted by a sudden feeling that he looked quite beautiful in spite of his thinness. He fixed his eyes on Ben Weatherstaff in his funny imperious way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;Look at me!&#8221; he commanded. &#8220;Look at me all over!

Mary had poured out speech as rapidly as she could as they had come down the Long Walk. The chief thing to be remembered, she had told him, was that Colin was getting well\u2014getting well. The garden was doing it. No one must let him remember about having humps and dying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">The Rajah condescended to seat himself on a rug under the tree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;What work do you do in the gardens, Weatherstaff?&#8221; he inquired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;Anythin&#8217; I&#8217;m told to do,&#8221; answered old Ben. &#8220;I&#8217;m kep&#8217; on by favor\u2014because she liked me.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;She?&#8221; said Colin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;Tha&#8217; mother,&#8221; answered Ben Weatherstaff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;My mother?&#8221; said Colin, and he looked about him quietly. &#8220;This was her garden, wasn&#8217;t it?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;Aye, it was that!&#8221; and Ben Weatherstaff looked about him too. &#8220;She were main fond of it.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;It is my garden now.

Colin stretched out his hand and took it up. An odd expression came into his face and he began to scratch at the earth. His thin hand was weak enough but presently as they watched him\u2014Mary with quite breathless interest\u2014he drove the end of the trowel into the soil and turned some over.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;You can do it!

After he had turned a few trowelfuls of soil he spoke exultantly to Dickon in his best Yorkshire.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;Tha&#8217; said as tha&#8217;d have me walkin&#8217; about here same as other folk\u2014an&#8217; tha&#8217; said tha&#8217;d have me diggin&#8217;.

Ben Weatherstaff went his way forgetting rheumatics. Dickon took his spade and dug the hole deeper and wider than a new digger with thin white hands could make it. Mary slipped out to run and bring back a watering-can. When Dickon had deepened the hole Colin went on turning the soft earth over and over. He looked up at the sky, flushed and glowing with the strangely new exercise, slight as it was.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;I want to do it before the sun goes quite\u2014quite down,&#8221; he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">Mary thought that perhaps the sun held back a few minutes just on purpose. Ben Weatherstaff brought the rose in its pot from the greenhouse. He hobbled over the grass as fast as he could. He had begun to be excited, too. He knelt down by the hole and broke the pot from the mould.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;Here, lad,&#8221; he said, handing the plant to Colin. &#8220;Set it in the earth thysel&#8217; same as th&#8217; king does when he goes to a new place.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">The thin white hands shook a little and Colin&#8217;s flush grew deeper as he set the rose in the mould and held it while old Ben made firm the earth. It was filled in and pressed down and made steady. Mary was leaning forward on her hands and knees. Soot had flown down and marched forward to see what was being done. Nut and Shell chattered about it from a cherry-tree.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; text-indent: 24.5pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black;\">&#8220;It&#8217;s planted!&#8221; said Colin at last. &#8220;And the sun is only slipping over the edge. Help me up, Dickon. I want to be standing when it goes.
