Five sentences spoken by neice vera from the story open window
Answers
Answer:
My aunt will be down presently, Mr. Nuttel," said a very self-possessed young lady of fifteen; "in the meantime you must try and put up with me."
Framton Nuttel endeavoured to say the correct something which should duly flatter the niece of the moment without unduly discounting the aunt that was to come. Privately he doubted more than ever whether these formal visits on a succession of total strangers would do much towards helping the nerve cure which he was supposed to be undergoing.
"I know how it will be," his sister had said when he was preparing to migrate to this rural retreat; "you will bury yourself down there and not speak to a living soul, and your nerves will be worse than ever from moping. I shall just give you letters of introduction to all the people I know there. Some of them, as far as I can remember, were quite nice."
Framton wondered whether Mrs. Sappleton, the lady to whom he was presenting one of the letters of introduction came into the nice division.
"Do you know many of the people round here?" asked the niece, when she judged that they had had sufficient silent communion.
"Hardly a soul," said Framton. "My sister was staying here, at the rectory, you know, some four years ago, and she gave me letters of introduction to some of the people here."
He made the last statement in a tone of distinct regret.
"Then you know practically nothing about my aunt?" pursued the self-possessed young lady.
"Only her name and address," admitted the caller. He was wondering whether Mrs. Sappleton was in the married or widowed state. An undefinable something about the room seemed to suggest masculine habitation.
"Her great tragedy happened just three years ago," said the child; "that would be since your sister's time."
"Her tragedy?" asked Framton; somehow in this restful country spot tragedies seemed out of place.

Answer:
The dialogue given to Vera, Mrs. Sappleton's niece, is direct dialogue, also called direct speech. At one point she embeds a narrative within her direct dialogue. Direct dialogue is established with Vera's opening lines at the beginning of the story:
"My aunt will be down presently, Mr. Nuttel," said a very self-possessed young lady of fifteen; "in the meantime you must try and put up with me."
It is while she is spinning her specialty of "[r]omance at short notice" that a narrative is embedded within her direct speech. To explain more, while Vera is speaking directly to Mr. Nuttell, she tells him a tale about Mrs. Sappleton's troubles related to the (imaginary) disappearance of her husband and brothers and their hunting dog.
In crossing the moor to their favourite snipe-shooting ground they were all three engulfed in a treacherous piece of bog. It had been that dreadful wet summer, you know, and places that were safe in other years gave way suddenly without warning.
Part of Mrs. Sappleton's conversation, however, is reported by the narrator indirectly: we are told what she has said without her saying it in quotation marks:
She rattled on cheerfully about the shooting and the scarcity of birds, and the prospects for duck in the winter.
