About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1859. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... the widow smiles at him and points to the bed where awful death sits throned, and the dun, who does not like death, and feels a cold shudder run over him, creeps out, muttering, "The rent must be paid;" and yet the sleeper sleeps. The parish sends a rough deal coffin, with a little saw-dust in the bottom, and they lay the dead therein with all the quick despatch of business habits, no time for tender handling; yet he sleeps. The clergyman comes in, and tries to frighten the widow and children with the thought, that their miseries are all sent to punish their sins, and the widow calls upon her husband's name, as one that could testify how she has striven to do her duty to God and man; yet he sleeps. The parish servants screw the lid down upon the loved face, uncomely to all the world beside, but very fair to her that loves it! The widow utters one piercing shriek, and calls upon the dear name; but still he sleeps. Sleep on! sleep on, oh, child of woe and want! sleep on, while thy children cry for bread, and cower in the cold, wintry breath over the last sparks of fire, that flicker just enough to show the rough coffin, and the pale, cold face bowed down upon the lid, and the weak arms striving to clasp the senseless wood. The candle has died in the socket, and darker shadows flit upon the walls--shadows are they of men or spirits? from starving people, within seven or eight minutes' walk of lordly palaces, within the reach of the greatest and wealthiest, of this great, wealthy city of Babylon. I wonder if old Babylon had a New St. Giles! I wonder whether when the mighty walls fell down, and the gorgeous palaces crumbled into dust--I wonder whether the cry of unpitied, unrelieved misery helped to pull them down! Think you it did, my rich brother? think you it did, ...
