Mrs Corder enters a dim bedchamber to find a frail girl of about fifteen named Annella. The girl, pale from slow starvation, dreams of freedom, while Mrs Corder reads and urges rest. Annella expresses longing to be a boy to seek fortune and escape confinement, revealing a stirring mix of courage and melancholy.
Amelia, a motherless young woman, flees hardship after a parish notice and a troubled past.
