You shoLrld assume the reader of your paper is famitiar with
the work you pick to
anatyze. lf you 100% feel tike you need summaryto set up
something in your
paper, this moLrld be an extra paragraph.
3. Use the work as part of your support. This is not the same as
summary. Use
details, paraphrase, and use quotes that are cited.
Al[ students should have a works cited page: always include the

It was cold in the fall in.lvlilanl and the durL*cu*" rr"ry

along

ing outside the shops, and the sn6r^. powdered in the fur of the
foxes and the wind blew their tails. The deer hung stiff and
heavy
and empty, and small birds brler, in the wind and the lriind
turned
their feathers. It was a cold taU and the r,r,ind came down from
the
mountains.
lVe were all at the hospital every aflernoon, and there were
different wavs of waiking across the town through the dusk to
the
hospital. lwo of the ways ,vere alongside canais, but they
rnrere long.
Ah,rravs, though, you crossed a bridge across a canai to enter
the
hospital. Thereu'as achoice ofthreebridges. On one ofthem

as very old and
verv beautiful, and you entered thrcugh a gate and rvalked
across a courtyard
and out a gate on the other side. There were usually funerals
starting from the
courtyard. Berrond the old hospital ltrere the ner,r, brick
pavilions, and there
^7e met every afternoon and were all very polite and interested
in what lvas
the matter, and sat in the rrachines that were to make so much
difference.
The doctor came up to the machine where I was srtting and said:
"What
did you like best to do before the war? Did you practice a sport?
"
I said: "Yes, football."
"Good," he said. "You r,r,ill be able to play football again
better than
ever."
lvly knee did r"iot bend and the leg dropped straight from the
knee to the
ankle r.tithout a calf, and the rnachine was to bend the knee and
make it
move as in riding a tricycle. But it did not bend yet, and instead
the machine
lurched u,hen it came to the bending part. The doctor said:
"That n,ill all
pass. You are a fortunate young man. You will play football
11. again like a
champion."
In the next machine rvas a major who had a little hand like a
baby's.
He winked at me when the doctor examined his hand, which was
between
two leather straps that bounced up and down and flapped tlie
stiff fingers,
and said: 'And rr.ill I roo play lbotball. captain-doctor?" He had
been a
very great fencer, and before the r,r,ar the greatest fencer in
ltaly.
The doctor went to his office in a back room and brought a
photo-
graph which showed a hand that had been withered almost as
small as the
major's, befbre it had taken a machine course, and afler r.vas a
little larger.
The major held the photograph rvith his good hand and looked
at it very
carefully. ",A. rvound?" he asked.
'An industrial accident," the doctor said.
"Very interesting, -",err interesting," the rrajor said, and
handed it back to
the doctor.
"You have confidence? "
"No," said the major.
There lruere three boys who came each day who were about the
same age
1 r.t'as. The)z were all three from Milan, and one of them was
to be a lawyer,
12. and one ,,'as to be a painter, and one had intended to be a
soldier, and after
we were finished with the machines, sometimes we walked back

to the Cat6 Cova, lvhich was next door to the Scala.: We walked
the short
way through the communist quarter because 47e were four
together. The
people hated us because ^.,e uTere officers, and from a rt,ine-
shop some-
one would call out, "A basso gli uiiiciali!"' as *," passed.
Another boy r,r,ho
walked with us sometimes and made us five wore a black silk
hand-
kerchief across his face because he had
no nose then and his face r.r.as to be
rebuilt. He had gone out to the front from
the military academy and been wounded
lvithin an hour after he had gone into the
front line for the first time. They rebuilt his
face, but he came from a very old family
and they could never get the nose exactly
right. He went to South America and
'*,orked in a bank. But this was a long
time ago, and then we did not any of us
know how it was going to be afterward.
We only kneu, then that there lvas always
the war, but that we were not going, to it
any more.
We all had the same medals, except
13. the boy with the black silk bandage across
his face, and he had not been at the front
long enough to get any medals. The tall
boy r,l,ith the very pale face lvho tvas to
be a la^,yer had been lieutenant of Arditia
and had three medals of the sort u7e each
had only one of. He had lived a verv long
time with death and r,r,as a iittle detached.
We were all a littie detached, and there u'as
nothing that held us together except that we
met every afternoon at the hospital. Although, as we walked to
the Cova through
the tough part of town, u'alking in the dark, with light and
singing coming
out of the wine-shops, and sometimes having to r,valk into the

14. ?/n" boys aL ltrsl were ver/
polite about my medals and asked
me what I had done to get them,

sidewalk so that we would have had to iostle
them to get b.v, lve felt held together by there
being something that had happened that they,
the people 'w'ho disliked us, did not under-
stand.
We ourselves all understood the Cova,
r,vhere it rvas rich and warm and not too brightly lighted, and
noisy a1d
smoky at certain hours, and there were alrt ays girls at the
tables and the
illustrated papers on a rack on the wall. The girls at the cova
were very
patriotic, and t found thar the most patriotic people in ltaly were
the caf€
girls-and I believe they are still patriotic.
The boys at first were very polite about my medals and asked
me what I
had done to get them. I showed them the papers, which'"t'ere
written in very
beautiful language and full of fratellanza5 and abnegazione,6
but which really
15. said, with the adjectives removed, that I had been given the
medals because
I was an American. After that their manner changed a little
toward me,
although I was their friend against outsiders. I was a friend, but
I was never
really Jne of them after they had read the citations, because it
had been dif-
ferent with them and they had done very different things to get
their medals'
I had been r,r,ounded, it was true; but we all knelt' that being
r'r'ounded, after
all, was reallv a1 accident. I was lever ashamed of the ribbons,
though, and
sometimes, after the cocktail hour, I would imagine myself
having done all
the things they had done ro ger their medals; but waiking home
at night
througir the empty streels with the cold wind and all the shops
closed, trying
to ke"p near the street lights, I kneu, that I would never have
done such
things, and I was very much afraid to die, and often lay in bed

flront again.

never kno^I nolv hov/ he would have turned out; so he could
never be accepted
17. either, and I liked him because I thought perhaps he rvould not
have turned
out to be a hawk either.
The major, who had been the great fencer, did not believe in
bravery,
and spent much time while ^/e sat in the machines correcting
my gramrnar.
He had complimented me on how I spoke ltalian, and r,te talked
together
very easilv. One day I had said that ltahan seemed such an easy
lanE;uage
to me that I could not take a great interest in it; everything was
so easy to
say. 'Ah, yes," the major said. "Wl'ry, then, do you not take up
the use of
grammar? " So we took up the use of granmar, and soon Italian
was such a
difficult language that I rvas afraid to talk to him until I had the
grammar
straight in my mind.
The major came very regularly to the hospital. I do not think he
ever
missed a day, although I am sure he did not believe in the
machines. There
was a time when none of us believed in the machines, and one
day the major
said it was all nonsense. The machines lvere nel^7 then and it
uras we who
were to prove them. It was an idiotic idea, he said, "a theor.',
like another." I
had not Iearned my grammar, and he said I was a stupid
impossible disgrace,
and he was a fool to have bothered with me. He was a small
man and he sat
18. straight up in his chair with his right hand thrust into the
machine and
looked straight ahead at the r.all r,thile the straps thumped up
and down
with his fingers in them.
"What will you do nhen the war is over if it is over?" he asked
me.
"Speak grammatically! "
"l will go to the States."
'Are you married? "
"No, but I hope to be."
"The more of a fooi you are," he said. He seemed very angry. 'A
man
must not marry."
"Why', Signor Maggiore? "
"Don't cali me'Signor tr'laggiore."'
"Whv must not a man marry?"
"He cannot marry. He cannot marry," he said angrily. "lf he is
to lose
everything, he should not place himself in a position to lose
that. t{e should
not place himself in a position to lose. He should find things he
cannot
lose."
He spoke very angriiy and bitterl-v and looked straight ahead
while he
talked.

"But why should he necessaril-v lose it? "
"He'll lose it," the major said. He rn,as looking at the wall.
Then he looked
down at the machine and jerked his little hand out from betr.t
een the straps
and slapped it hard against his thigh. "He'll lose it," he almost
shouted.
"Don't argue with me!" Then he called to the attendant r.tho ran
the
machines. "Come and turn this damned thing off."
He went back into the other rootn for the light treatment and the
mas-
sage. Then I heard him ask the doctor if he might use his
telephone and he
shut the door. When he came back into the room, I was sitting
in another
machine. He lrras wearing his cape and had his cap on, and he
came directll,
toward my machine and put his arm on my shoulder.
"l am sorry," he said, and patted lne on the shoulder u,ith his
good
hand. "I would not be rude. My wife has iust died. You must
fbrgive me."
"Oh-' I said, feeling sick for him. "l am so sorry."
He stood there biting his lor,r,er lip. "lt is very difficult," he
said. "l can-
not resign myself,"
20. He looked straight past me and out through the window. Then
he began
to cry. "l am utterl-v unable to resign mvselfl" he said and
choked. And
then crying, his head up looking at nothing, carrying himself
straight and
soldierly, with tears on both cheeks and biting his lips, he
walked past the
machines and out the door.
The doctor told me that the malor's rt ife, who was very young
and r.t hom
he had not married until he lr,as definitely invalided out of the
war,E had d'ed
of pneumonia. She had been sick only a few days. No one
expected her to die.
The major did not come to the hospital for three days. Then he
came at the
usual hour, wearing a black band on the sleeve of his unitbrm.
When he came
back, there were large framed photographs around the wall, of
all sorts of
u,ounds before and after they had been cured by the machines.
In fiont of the
machine the major used were three photographs of hands like
his that were
completely restored. I do not knor,r, where the doctor got them.
I alrvays under-
stood we ^iere the first Io use the rnachines. The photographs
did not make
much difference to the maior because he only looked out of the
windou,.
