Yes,
there
was
a
junk-yard
back
of
the
house
and
beside
it
and
around
it
too,
a
big
one,
but
it
was
everywhere
poisoned
and
polluted
with
roses.
The
very
Horses
and
Dogs
had
the
wrong
smells;
the
whole
country
round
was
a
repellent
desert
of
lifeless,
disgusting
gardens
and
hay-fields,
without
a
single
tenement
or
smoke-stack
in
sight.
How
she
did
hate
it
all!
There
was
only
one
sweet-smelling
shrub
in
the
whole
horrible
place,
and
that
was
in
a
neglected
corner.
She
did
enjoy
nipping
that
and
rolling
in
the
leaves;
it
was
a
bright
spot
in
the
grounds;
but
the
only
one,
for
she
had
not
found
a
rotten
fish-head
nor
seen
a
genuine
garbage-can
since
she
came,
and
altogether
it
was
the
most
unlovely,
unattractive,
unsmellable
spot
she
had
ever
known.
She
would
surely
have
gone
that
first
night
had
she
had
the
liberty.
The
liberty
was
weeks
in
coming,
and,
meanwhile,
her
affinity
with
the
cook
had
developed
as
a
bond
to
keep
her;
but
one
day
after
a
summer
of
discontent
a
succession
of
things
happened
to
stir
anew
the
slum
instinct
of
the
royal
prisoner.
