`` I do n't know yet . You must ask Miss Lothrop . Yonder she comes . She has been exploring ever since five o'clock , I believe . '' `` I suppose she is accustomed to get up at that hour , '' remarked the other , as if the fact involved a good deal of disparagement . And then they were all silent , and watched Lois , who was slowly and unconsciously approaching her reviewers . Her hands were again full of different gleanings from the wonderful wilderness in which she had been exploring ; and she came with a slow step , still busy with them as she walked .
