Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stories From Switzerland Mr. Williams was one day walking in the fields; as he passed through a meadow in which some sheep were feeding, he saw a little boy about eight years old sitting under a tree. He was quite idle, and gaped and stretched his arms about as if he felt very uncomfortable. Mr. Williams stopped and said, "My boy, are you well?" "O, Yes," answered the boy, "I am very well; but I am quite tired, and I do not know what to do." Mr. W. Have not you to look after these sheep? Boy. Yes, and I have been here ever since six o´clock this morning. Mr. W. How have you employed yourself during that time? Boy. Why, what could I do? I had nothing to do, and I feel quite tired. Mr. W. Why did not you bring your Testament with you, and read a few chapters, or learn some verses by heart while looking after your sheep? you would not have felt so tired, and would have gained some useful knowledge. The boy did not reply, but held down his head and looked quite ashamed. Mr. W. I suppose you forgot to bring your Testament; I am going further, and will lend you mine till I return; here it is.
