We stand on the threshold of all that is best and worthiest in the human life of centuries, with the shades of the great and noble pressing about us.

If he came at meal-times, I would not let him go; if he lacked shoes, I gave him them; now and then I slipped a shilling into his hands as well. he had the air of the worthiest man in the world, and he even bore his neediness with a certain gaiety that used to amuse me.
