Jim Burden shares "One dream I dreamed a great many times, and it was always the same. I was in a harvest-field full of shocks, and I was lying against one of them. Lena Lingard came across the stubble barefood, in a short skirt, with a curved reaping-hook in her hand, and she was flushed like thedawn, with a kind of luminous rosiness all about her. She sat down beside me, turned to me with a soft sign and said, "Now they are all gone, and I can kiss you as much as I like." I used to wish could have this flattering dream about Antonia, but I never did.
