Page "romance" Paragraph 19
from
Brown Corpus
When he would be a man, he would be a rich man.
He would not be like the `` rich Americans '' who lived in white-columned houses on the other side of the park.
He would not ride the eight-thirty local to the city each morning.
He would not carry a brief case.
Nor would he work at all.
He would square his shoulders and carry a cane before each step.
He would sit inside the coffee shop and pound a gloved fist upon the table and a girl would hear him and come running, bowing with her running, calling out in her bowing, `` At your service ''.
He would order her to bring coffee, and would take from his vest pocket a thin black pipe which he would stuff -- he would not remove his gloves -- and light and smoke.
He could do that when he would be a man.
