YOURS WITH ALL MY HEART 



a little hiding, trembling culprit, after the 

 wreck was cleared away, and the dinner was 

 over. 



" Poor little thing, she wasn't so much to

 anism, --but after all there were only two 

 pots broken." So as she found me, a little 

 trembling heap, in the middle of the big 

 bed, she left me, and because she did not 

 punish me, but let me lie there, snug and 

 warm, I fled there ever after, as my castle 

 of defence.
