        <description><![CDATA[Judith, who tends toward vanity, looks at Kit with envy, perceiving her as someone who has all the things she herself wishes she could have.  Kit arrives at the Wood home dressed in comparative finery. Although the dress she is wearing is plain to her, to Judith, who, like the other women in the family must dress in garments made of "some nondescript sort of coarse gray stuff", it is magnificent, and the thought that Kit has seven trunks full...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[In order to move, the Dolphin is dependent on the tides or the wind.  Since the journey from Saybrook to Wethersfield is upriver, or against the tide, the wind is the only natural force that can propel it forward.  The wind is capricious and unpredictable, however, and on Kit's first trip along this leg of the journey, "the fresh sea breeze drop(s) behind, and by sunset it (dies) away altogether".  As the sails sag "limp and soundless",...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[In Chapter 2, Kit unwittingly offends Nat by calling the Dolphin a "filthy ship".
The incident takes place not long after Kit and Nat first meet.  They come from completely different backgrounds, and do not yet know each other well enough to see things from the other's perspective.  Sailing is pretty much Nat's life, and he loves the Dolphin.  His father has worked hard to secure and maintain the vessel by transporting horses and other...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Kit becomes responsible for taking care of everyone in the Wood household when the sickness comes.
Judith is stricken with the illness first, and it takes her a long time to recover. Kit helps nurse her, then is taken ill herself.  Kit's bout with the fever is mild however,

"her wiry young body, nourished by Barbados fruits and sunshine, (has) an elastic vitality, and she (is) back on her feet while Judith (is) still barely sitting up to...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Well I don't have a book for quotes but...
I'd say Kit is really shown what it is like to actually work. She appreciates her free time more because she can't take it for granted. She steals away as much time as she can, and does not waste it by being lazy, but she teaches Penelope to read/write and she also keeps Widow Tupper company.

        <description><![CDATA[In a word, Kit is shocked at her uncle's announcement that William Ashby has asked to call on her.  She has actually only seen him once, "for a moment after Meeting", although her uncle insinuatingly remarks that, in her incongruously colorful attire, she had been "conspicuous enough".  Kit "(feels) her cheeks growing hot" as Uncle Matthew and Aunt Rachel discuss the situation as if she isn't even there.  She says nothing as it is...]]></description>
