He laid down a half slice of toast and brushed his thin fingers. "Uncle Timmy, are you sure you can't manage just a little more? Two spoonfuls of boiled egg, half a slice of toast, and a cup of coffee that's no breakfast at all. If I tell you all about it, won't you eat just half the egg?"

The Old Woman took two or three steps in the direction of her sons and daughters; and the sons and daughters, seeing there was no hope for them, approached her with hanging heads.
