Lines for Game 5, Book 3
OK, everyone. Here are the first lines for Gone with the Wind, including the real one. Happy guessing:
1. While a blazing sun set lower in the sky, a horse and rider raced the falling shadows toward the massive oak tree on the O'Hara plantation.
2. "Miss Scarlett, you know Ah cain't lace you up tight if'n you keep to movin' 'round like a wild thing!" scolded Mammy.
3. Scarlett O'Hara suppressed her disappointment as she rose to greet the Tarleton twins.
4. Scarlett frowned, her lips pressed together in a thin line.
5. Although Scarlett O'Hara was not a true beauty, she never lacked for admirers.
6. Scarlett O'Hara was born on the second floor of the mansion on the plantation of Tara, and did not venture outside of Tara's grounds until her fifteenth birthday.
7. Scarlett O'Hara was not beautiful, but men seldom realized it when caught by her charm as the Tarleton twins were.
8. The grand facade of Tara shone like a jewel in the setting sun.
9. The sun rose over the fields of Tara, as green in the morning light as the fields of Ireland.
10. Looking back, she was surprised at her behavior.
11. The sun was sinking low in the west, its carmine rays giving a bloody hue to the walls of Tara.
12. The antebellum epoch in the southern part of this continent now seems an almost unreachable place.
