Excerpt from The Cary Sisters For days April had been living up to her reputation. The little brown house and all that surrounded it - the sweetbrier clinging to Its walls, the apple and cherry trees, the rose bushes, the grass plot In front and the fields beyond - were thoroughly drenched. Even Robert Gary seemed to be affected by the general despondency of the outside world, as he stood at the window and with an apparent effort at resignation repeated in a low tone: "'The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto the land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand.' 'He sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.'" Then his voice suddenly changed and the ring of rejoicing was unmistakable, as the sun burst from behind a cloud and flooded the room with its yellow light: "'Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing It Is for the eyes to behold the sun.'"
