Janet made a sudden desperate resolve . She would go to Granny and ask her for a love potion to make Avery love Randall . If Granny could n't do any good , she could n't do any harm . Janet was a little afraid of her , and had never been near her house , but what would n't she do for Randall ? * * * * * Janet never lost much time in carrying out any resolution she made . The next afternoon she slipped away to visit Granny Thomas . She put on her longest dress and did her hair up for the first time . Granny must not think her a child . She rowed herself down the long pond to the row of golden-brown sand dunes that parted it from the gulf . It was a wonderful autumn day . There were wild growths and colours and scents in sweet procession all around the pond . Every curve in it revealed some little whim of loveliness . On the left bank , in a grove of birch , was Randall 's new house , waiting to be sanctified by love and joy and birth . Janet loved to be alone thus with the delightful day . She was sorry when she had walked over the stretch of windy weedy sea fields and reached Granny 's little tumbledown house at the Cove -- sorry and a little frightened as well . But only a little ; there was good stuff in Janet ; she lifted the latch boldly and walked in when Granny bade . Granny was curled up on a stool by her fireplace , and if ever anybody did look like a witch , she did . She waved her pipe at another stool , and Janet sat down , gazing a little curiously at Granny , whom she had never seen at such close quarters before . Will I look like that when I am very old ? she thought , beholding Granny 's wizened , marvellously wrinkled face .
I wonder XXXXX anybody will be sorry when you die .
