The secret garden — Chapter Four The Robin and the gardener

　　CHAPTER FOUR

　　THE ROBIN AND THE GARDENER

　　--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

　　So Mary put on her coat and went outside. The skies were gray, and it was cold. She could not help thinking about the mysterious locked garden that no one had seen for ten years. She wondered what it looked like, and if there were flowers in it. Why was the door to the garden locked? You could always walk into a garden. Mary saw that she was near some gardens, and headed towards them. Maybe the locked garden was nearby. Mary walked through several garderns. They had trees and paths and fountains. Everything was brown and looked dead, because it was winter. Soon Mary saw a wall with vines growing on it. Was this the wall of the locked garden? No, there was a green door in the wall, and it was open. Mary walked through the door. She saw an old man in the garden, which had fruit trees. He had some gardening tools with him. He seemed surprised to see Mary, hut nodded his head in a greeting. He had a cross-looking face, and did not seem very happy to see another person.
