Dovina :Why is it sad that the joyful reader cannot sing sweetest of all?

Richard: this is not a question for the narrator. He does not presume to explain the feelings of the joyful reader.

Dovina: To be a joyful reader is not wanton.

Richard: I did not pick the word at random. I picked it for its connotations of indiscipline and playfulness and the general sonic frivolity of the word.

Dovina: But I see no fault in that.

Richard: I am very pleased for you.
