Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Chimney-Pot Papers The Chimney-Pots. My windows look across the roofs of the crowded city and my thoughts often take their suggestion from the life that is manifest at my neighbors windows and on these roofs. Across the way, one story lower than our own, there dwells with his subsidiary parents a little lad who has been ill for several weeks. After his household is up and dressed I regularly discover him in bed, with his books and toys piled about him. Sometimes his knees are raised to form a snowy mountain, and he leads his paper soldiers up the slope. Sometimes his kitten romps across the coverlet and pounces on his wriggling toes; and again sleeps on the sunny window-sill. His book, by his rapt attention, must deal with far-off islands and with waving coconut trees. Lately I have observed that a yellow drink is brought to him in the afternoon a delicious blend of eggs and milk and by the zest with which he licks the remainder from his lips, it is a prime favorite of his. In these last few days, however, I have seen the lads nose flat and eager on the window, and I know that he is convalescent.
