Excerpt from Henri: Or the Little Savoyard in Paris Open the window, Henri, my son, " said a faint voice, "I long for a breath of fresh air." "But, dear grandmother, the wind blows icy cold from the Montanvert." The old woman laughed softly, and raised herself slightly in bed. "You need not be afraid, my boy, my end is near, and nothing will now either harm or hurt me. Open the window, and let me once more see the bright sunshine. And you should rejoice with me, Henri, for I could never be more than a burden to you." "Grandmother, dearest grandmother, do not talk so, " and kneeling by the bed, he took her wrinkled hand lovingly in his own, "You know how dearly I love you and how thankful I should be to see you well once more."
