Bessie Lee must, I think, have been a girl of good natural capacity, for she was smart in all she did, and had a remarkable knack of narrative; so, at least, I judge from the impression made on me by her nursery tales.
Bessie Lee doveva essere una ragazza intelligente, perché le riusciva tutto quello che si metteva a fare e narrava benissimo; almeno i racconti suoi mi sono rimasti impressi nella mente.
