This is simple; grab the nearest book, open it to page , and give us the ninth sentence. Make sure you credit the book! I'll start.

Mine doesn't have a ninth sentence - it's merely a quote. "=_=;;
"The ideal ladies' maid will be awake before her mistress, with warm water for washing the face, and will not go to sleep until she had undressed her mistress for bed. She may require a nap during the day, when her mistress does not need her." - Van Kamp's Guide to Housekeeping for Ladies of High Society, 1899 Edition (quoted in Luxe, Chapter 5, Anne Gorberson)
