"'Minds me of a story they tell about Willy Feeley when he
was a young fella. Willy was bashful, awful bashful.
Well, one day he takes a heifer over to Graves' bull.
Ever'body was out but Elsie Graves, and Elsie wasn't
bashful at all. Willy, he stood there turnin' red an' he
couldn't even talk. Elsie says, 'I know what you come
for; the bull's out back a the barn.' Well, they took
the heifer out there an' Willy an' Elsie sat on the fence
to watch. Purty soon Willy got feelin' purty fly. Elsie
looks over an' says, like she don't know, 'What's a
matter, Willy?' Willy's so randy, he can't hardly set
still. 'By God,' he says, 'by God, I wisht I was a-doin
that!' Elsie says, 'Why not, Willy? It's your heifer.' "
--- John Steinbeck in THE GRAPES OF WRATH
(co. 1939 by John Steinbeck; Penguin Books Edition, pp. 74-75.)
