Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

One of David searly recollections was of being taken out of his warm bed in what seemed like the middle of the night, but was really towards six oclock of a winters morning, and dressed by cold candlelight for one of the journeys to which he had been accustomed ever since he was born. Most of his recollections had to do with travelling. This one, more vivid somehow than the rest, stood out afterwards from its fellows. He was still half asleep when he was lifted from the warm pillow, and, protesting, whimpering even a little, he tried to go to sleep again during the first stages of his toilet. Now, Master David. Wake up. Wake up, will you? Wake up like a good boy, or are you going to be a naughty one? Ow do you think Im to get you dressed if you lollop like that, to say nothing of your little sister good as gold over there and surprised at you! With the train to catch and all, do you hear me? There! Let selp, for goodness sake, stead of inderin .P ut your arms in; now over your little head. That sright. Caught his poor fingers, did I? Careless old Betsy! Ought to know better, didnt she? There sa boy theres a little man, though. And now for the wash wash wash. The wash wash wash woke him. The water wasn tproperly hot and Betsy was in a hurry. He squirmed and wriggled indering, it is to be feared, very much more than he elped. Perhaps the water was nearly cold; perhaps Betsy shands, which were kind, were rough.
