" "Why Rose, what
I ever done to you, I certainly don't think you is right Rose to be so
bad now to me." "I certainly don't no ways Melanctha Herbert think you
got any right ever to be complaining the way I been acting to you. I
certainly never do think Melanctha Herbert, you hear me, nobody
ever been more patient to you than I always been to like you, only
Melanctha, I hear more things now so awful bad about you, everybody
always is telling to me what kind of a way you always have been doing
so much, and me always so good to you, and you never no ways, knowing
how to be honest to me. No Melanctha it ain't ever in me, not to want
you to have good luck come to you, and I like it real well Melanctha
when you some time learn how to act the way it is decent and right
for a girl to be doing, but I don't no ways ever like it the kind of
things everybody tell me now about you. No Melanctha, I can't never
any more trust you. I certainly am real sorry to have never any more
to see you, but there ain't no other way, I ever can be acting to
you. That's all I ever got any more to say to you now Melanctha." "But
Rose, deed; I certainly don't know, no more than the dead, nothing I
ever done to make you act so to me. Anybody say anything bad about
me Rose, to you, they just a pack of liars to you, they certainly
is Rose, I tell you true. I certainly never done nothing I ever been
ashamed to tell you.
