Page "romance" Paragraph 562
from
Brown Corpus
Here was a perfect place to lie down and make believe.
He was Canute controlling the waves.
He was a knight of the Round Table, `` Sir Quintus the Brave '', slaying evil spirits and banshees and vampires and witches with warty noses.
( One good thing about a suit of armor, his leg wouldn't show.
) He was the first astronaut on the moon, chosen because of his small size and intrepid nature.
He was six feet one like his father, with big hands and a hairy chest, a man the weak and persecuted would turn to.
Fearless.
Every night when he wanted a drink of water, didn't he practice being fearless by not turning on the bathroom light??
A dark bathroom can be pretty scary, and he'd creep back to bed, proud of himself, thinking: Tomorrow, for sure, I'll go down to the rock and keep my promise to Dad.
