  THE GIFT OF THE MAGI by O. Henry One dollar and seventy cents. That was all. She had put it aside, one cent and then another and then another, in her careful buying of meat and other food.

So Della did it. Which instigates the moral reflection that life is made up of sobs, sniffles, and smiles, with sniffles predominating.

It did not exactly beggar description, but it certainly had that word on the lookout for the mendicancy squad. In the vestibule below was a letter-box into which no letter would go, and an electric button from which no mortal finger could coax a ring.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening BY  ROBERT FROST Whose woods these are I think I know.  His house is in the village though;  He will not see me stopping here    To watch his woods fill up with snow.  My little horse must think it queer    To stop without a farmhouse near   Between the woods and frozen lake    The darkest evening of the year.    He gives his harness bells a shake    To ask if there is some mistake.    The only other sound’s the sweep    Of easy wind and downy flake.    The woods are lovely, dark and deep,    But I have promises to keep,    And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. Line by line poem Line by line paraphrase and meanings of some words. Whose woods these are I think I know.   I know who is the owner of these woods. (In US woods/forests too are ow...
