“But the wind…”
“My cold is not so bad as all that... The cool night air will do me good. I am a flower.”
“But the animals…”
“Well, I must endure the presence of two or three caterpillars if I wish to become acquainted with the butterflies. It seems that they are very beautiful. And if not the butterflies—and the caterpillars—who will call upon me? You will be far away... As for the large animals—I am not at all afraid of any of them. I have my claws.”
