here and time of torture it is for
all, you may be sure. If you chance
to see any of the pupils wandering
around with pale, drawn faces and
worried look in their eyes you
may be certain as to what is
troubling them. However we can
only hope for the best and trust
that our teachers will be lenient
with US.
