The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from In a German Pension by Katherine Mansfield: "I won't kiss you. I won't. Stop doing that Ugh! you're like a dog--you

a knife."
"Don't be silly--come and be good!" He dragged her towards the bed.
"Do you suppose I'm a light woman?" she snarled, and swooping over she
fastened her teeth in his glove.
