From A Good Woman by Arnold Bennett

That's not exactly the way to put it, Rosie. You take a fellow up too soon. Of course I must tell you lots more yet. You should hear Evelyn play the "Moonlight Sonata." It's the most marvelous thing.... And then Madge's eyes! The way that girl can look at a fellow.... I'm telling you all these things, you know, Rosie, because I've always looked up to you as an elder sister. Rosie! I never thought afterwards you'd take it seriously. I forgot it all. I was only a boy then. But I see clearly now. I never could withstand you.
