Well, they also do like that, only my sister and the soldier kiss and kiss; so that it takes them a long time to do it.'

So now, if you wish to be my good friend—as you say you want—push it in—with your fingers, if you can't otherwise; but pay attention and don't finish in me, because you may make me a child.'
