Page "learned" Paragraph 523

One hebephrenic woman often became submerged in what felt to me like a somehow phony experience of pseudo-emotion, during which, despite her wracking sobs and streaming cheeks, I felt only a cold annoyance with her.

Eventually such incidents became more sporadic, and more sharply demarcated from her day-after-day behavior, and in one particular session, after several minutes of such behavior -- which, as usual, went on without any accompanying words from her -- she asked, eagerly, `` Did you see Granny ''??

At first I did not know what she meant ; ;

I thought she must be seeing me as some one who had just come from seeing her grandmother, in their distant home-city.

Then I realized that she had been deliberately showing me, this time, what Granny was like ; ;

and when I replied in this spirit, she corroborated my hunch.
