Today the girls are not sitting but are walking in the fields. Soon Cornelia is tired. She is no longer walking but sitting under a tree. Flavia, who is an energetic girl, is running in the fields. Soon Flavia is also tired. Now Flavia and Cornelia are sitting under a tree because they are tired. While the girls are sitting under a tree, Cornelia reads and Flavia writes. At last the girls slowly walk out of the fields into the country house and farm.
