The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Bunner Sisters by Edith Wharton: early and go with him for a sail down the bay in one of the Coney

"I guess I won't go, thank you kindly; but I'm sure my sister

She was pained by the perfunctory phrase with which Evelina
urged her to accompany them; and still more by Mr. Ramy's silence.
"No, I guess I won't go," she repeated, rather in answer to
herself than to them. "It's dreadfully hot and I've got a kinder
headache."
