| Dec 19, 2018 at 6:17 | comment | added | Barid Baran Acharya | Consider the very first line of Jane Austen's novel, To the Light House where the mother is careful enough not to hurt the child's sentiment, "Yes, of course, if it's fine tomorrow," said Mrs. Ramsay. " But you'll have to be UP WITH THE LARK," she added. I've upvoted it. | |
