    The evening was yet young.  Miguel went upstairs to give another look around.  Tereza having waddled to the fire and given some attention to what was being dealt with there, lifting a saucepan lid, stirring the fire, giving a cut with a stick to the unfortunate hound who was treading the turnspit patiently and with painful lack of spirit, took up an armful of dry tree-branches and chopped logs and proceeded up the stairs in turn. (McClure's Magazine, v.54, 1922)
