Hot Nights (Henry Pushes A Swing)


Henry has never pushed either an occupied swing or a swing lacking occupation

In short Henry does not have a swing in his small garden as there is no room

But Henry is familiar with hot nights which tend to occur during the more settled months

Henry has a cousin named Rose

She does not have a swing on her garden

As she lives in her Paris apartment with an unnamed cat

Recently her cat was badly injured by a random swing

Henry is unaware that the nameless cat was injured by a swing

Rose thinks that her pet is likely to die from its injuries

The cat has no awareness of its own mortality and therefore does not have an opinion

Henry has noted in one of his essays that to state that one does not have an opinion means that one might hold an opinion

Rose does not hold many opinions

She has never counted them

So remains ignorant of the exact number
