1 What the characters of the four sisters were we will leave to be found out.
2 Amy came in hastily, and looked rather abashed when she saw her sisters all waiting for her.
3 And Meg laughed also at the queer look which the sisters exchanged as she thus described her supposed lover.
4 Her sisters used to say that they rather liked to get Jo into a fury because she was such an angel afterward.
5 Her older sisters were very fine young ladies, and one was engaged, which was extremely interesting and romantic, Meg thought.
6 "I just wish I had a little of the money Laurie spends on that horse," she added, as if to herself, yet hoping her sisters would hear.
7 This funny spectacle appeared to amuse the sun, for he burst out with such radiance that Jo woke up and roused her sisters by a hearty laugh at Amy's ornament.
8 I'll help you with the hard words, and they'll explain things if we don't understand, whispered Beth, very much impressed by the pretty books and her sisters' example.
9 Never having known mother or sisters, he was quick to feel the influences they brought about him, and their busy, lively ways made him ashamed of the indolent life he led.
10 Amy fared worst of all, for her resources were small, and when her sisters left her to amuse herself, she soon found that accomplished and important little self a great burden.

17 At the Kings' she daily saw all she wanted, for the children's older sisters were just out, and Meg caught frequent glimpses of dainty ball dresses and bouquets, heard lively gossip about theaters, concerts, sleighing parties, and merrymakings of all kinds, and saw money lavished on trifles which would have been so precious to her.
