A fourteen-year-old in Juvinal Hall asks Rose about bringing and returns a week later with a refusal.
Rose tells the speaker to think it over; her reply includes "then will go to Rosty". He returns with "I don't want to do it". The verb bringing has no stated object, so the restored wording does not identify the proposed action.

A handwritten memory: 'The boy in Juvinal / Hall- AT 14 years' asks Rose about 'bringing', and she tells him to 'think it / over, then will go to / Rosty'. A week later he returns with his decision: 'I don't want / to do it'.
The page is a compressed anecdote about a fourteen-year-old in juvenile hall who is given time to choose, and the only fully stated outcome is his refusal. What 'bringing' and 'Rosty' refer to is left unexplained, so the note reads as a sketch toward a scene rather than a finished poem.
