I had become so attached to her that I had n't the heart to imagine a bosom friend at the asylum , even if there had been any scope for imagination there . '' `` I think it 's just as well there was n't , '' said Marilla drily . `` I do n't approve of such goings-on . You seem to half believe your own imaginations . It will be well for you to have a real live friend to put such nonsense out of your head . But do n't let Mrs. Barry hear you talking about your Katie Maurices and your Violettas or she 'll think you tell stories . '' `` Oh , I wo n't . I could n't talk of them to everybody -- their memories are too sacred for that . But I thought I 'd like to have you know about them . Oh , look , here 's a big bee just tumbled out of an apple blossom . Just think what a lovely place to live -- in an apple blossom ! Fancy going to sleep in it when the wind was rocking it . If I was n't a human girl I think I 'd like to be a bee and live among the flowers . '' `` Yesterday you wanted to be a sea gull , '' sniffed Marilla . `` I think you are very fickle minded . I told you to learn that prayer and not talk . But it seems impossible for you to stop talking if you 've got anybody that will listen to you . So go up to your room and learn it . '' `` Oh , I know it pretty nearly all now -- all but just the last line . '' `` Well , never mind , do as I tell you .
Go XXXXX your room and finish learning it well , and stay there until I call you down to help me get tea . ''
