I 'm neat and cool and comfortable , quite proper for a dusty walk on a warm day . If people care more for my clothes than they do for me , I do n't wish to see them . You can dress for both , and be as elegant as you please . It pays for you to be fine . It does n't for me , and furbelows only worry me . '' `` Oh , dear ! '' sighed Amy , `` now she 's in a contrary fit , and will drive me distracted before I can get her properly ready . I 'm sure it 's no pleasure to me to go today , but it 's a debt we owe society , and there 's no one to pay it but you and me . I 'll do anything for you , Jo , if you 'll only dress yourself nicely , and come and help me do the civil . You can talk so well , look so aristocratic in your best things , and behave so beautifully , if you try , that I 'm proud of you . I 'm afraid to go alone , do come and take care of me . '' `` You 're an artful little puss to flatter and wheedle your cross old sister in that way . The idea of my being aristocratic and well-bred , and your being afraid to go anywhere alone ! I do n't know which is the most absurd . Well , I 'll go if I must , and do my best . You shall be commander of the expedition , and I 'll obey blindly , will that satisfy you ? '' said Jo , with a sudden change from perversity to lamblike submission . `` You 're a perfect cherub ! Now put on all your best things , and I 'll tell you how to behave at each place , so that you will make a good impression . I want people to like you , and they would if you 'd only try to be a little more agreeable .
Do your hair the pretty way , and XXXXX the pink rose in your bonnet .
