The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Men of Iron by Howard Pyle: thy ball, thou shalt not go away empty. Whither didst thou strike

"Over yonder by the cherry-tree," said Myles, jerking his head in
that direction. "An I may go get it, I will trouble ye no more."
As he spoke he made a motion to leave them.
"Stay!" said the Lady Anne, hastily; "remain where thou art. An
thou cross the open, some one may haply see thee from the house,
and will give the alarm, and thou wilt be lost. I will go get thy
ball."
And so she left Myles and her cousin, crossing the little plots
of grass and skirting the rosebushes to the cherry-tree.
