i focus on her eyes : even in the dim , smoky light , i can see that they are full of warmth . and he was roasting a forkful of sausages over the open flame . he kissed my bare shoulder tenderly . if you were to die now , this poor man would surely drown . she loved when they had to pick her up to kiss her , or stand her on a stool so they did n't get neck cramps . my husband tried to dig around the curse , but the spirits struck him dead .
