This passage is describing how attached the child is to
her doll and only to that doll. It is describing how sad she is and how she will accept
no substitutes. The child is "too faithful" because she wants only that
doll.
The next part of the quote is talking about how the
dog is trying to cheer her up. He tries to play with her but cannot take her mind off
Betsy.
Finally, the last part simply refers to fancier
dolls. The dolls have elegant names and are able to actually do things. They can open
and close their eyes and say "mama." Betsy is just a rag doll, but the girl still wants
her and will not be satisfied by the better dolls.
