Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of Little Jack: A Foundling; Together With the History of William, an Orphan; Embellished With Wood Cuts "Shall I," said he, "who find it so difficult to live at present, encumber myself with the care of a helpless infant, that will not for many years be capable of contributing to its own subsistence? And yet," added he, softening with pity, "can I deny assistance to a human being still more miserable than myself?- Will not Providence, who feeds the birds of the wood and the beasts of the field, and who has promised to bless all those that are kind and charitable, assist my feeble endeavours? - At least, let me give it food and lodging for this night; for unless I receive it into my cottage, the poor abandoned wretch must perish with cold before the morning." Saying this, he took it up in his arms, and perceived it was a fine healthy boy, though covered with rags; the little foundling too seemed to be sensible of his kindness, and, smiling in his face, stretched out his little arms as if to embrace his benefactor.
