George Moore 
Sister Teresa [EPUB ebook] 

She will not run into debt; and she’s quite right; so we have to manage with what we’ve got in the convent. Of course there are some vegetables and some flour in the house; but we can’t go on like this for long. We don’t mind so much for ourselves, but we are so anxious about Mother Prioress; you know how weak her heart is, and all this anxiety may kill her. Then there are the invalid sisters, who ought to have fresh meat.
