Read the excerpt below from little women and answer the question. "which would mademoiselle choose if she had her will? " asked esther, who always sat near to watch over and lock up the valuables. "i like the diamonds best, but there is no necklace among them, and i'm fond of necklaces, they are so becoming. i should choose this if i might," replied amy, looking with great admiration at a string of gold and ebony beads from which hung a heavy cross of the same. "i, too, covet that, but not as a necklace. ah, no! to me it is a rosary, and as such i should use it like a good catholic," said esther, eyeing the handsome thing wistfully. "is it meant to use as you use the string of good-smelling wooden beads hanging over your glass? " asked amy. "truly, yes, to pray with. it would be pleasing to the saints if one used so fine a rosary as this, instead of wearing it as a vain bijou." this conversation between amy and aunt march’s maid, esther, suggests to the reader that esther thinks the marches are godless. esther dislikes aunt march. esther is a devout catholic. esther prefers plain clothing to fancy jewelry.
