Abigail Adams asked John Adams for many things
for her children, but only one thing for herself.

A green umbrella from Paris.

I would like that umbrella if nobody else wants it.
If it still is green and from Paris. If it ever was.

Does it rain often, in her world?

Why does she say, 'If it ever was'? Hasn't she seen it?

Maybe she doesn't know what green is

But did you know about Mrs Gamp's very battered black umbrella?
