One day when he happened to be using the polishing-iron, Vixen, as her brothers called her, came in, and began to play with the paste. Richard turned with the iron in his hand, which he had just taken from the brasier. He was rubbing it bright and clean, and she noted this, but had not seen him take it from the fire: she caught at it, to spoil it with her pasty fingers.
Keep fluting and crimping irons, a small iron for ruffles, and a polishing-iron. Remove stains with lemon juice, and polish with beeswax dissolved in turpentine. Saturate a piece of flannel in boiled linseed oil and rub it well over the soles and round the edges of the shoes, then stand them, soles upward, to dry.
"I should want a little fire for my glue-pot and polishing-iron. There will be gilding and lettering too, though I hope not much title-pieces to replace, and a touch here and there to give to the tooling! No man with any reverence in him would meddle much with such delicate, lovely old things as many of these gildings! He would not dare more than just touch them!"
