Excerpt from Firelight Stories"Please, miss, if you only would!" said the most persuasive of voices, at my elbow. I looked down at the owner of the voice, and beheld as picturesque a little vagabond as any artist need have craved for a model, with tangled black hair, brown face, wide mouth, and great dark eyes. He was holding up a basket full of pins and tape, and such small wares as we see constantly hawked about in the streets."Please buy, lady, " he said again, as I looked down. "I am so hungry."I don't want any pins, " I answered, in my severest and most hard-hearted manner."But there's tape too, and needles. I say, missis, " and this was in the most insinuating of tones, "I s'pose you never was hungry?"About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
