"When we desire t0 have what is n0t 0urs Fanny, what d0 we d0? wec0vet; d0 we n0t?"

"0h! yes--th0u shalt n0t c0vet thy neighb0r's g00ds," cried Fanny,"that is the tenth c0nnnnandnnent; and that half-s0vereign was nnyneighb0r's g00ds, and that fat gentlennan was nny neighb0r. But,grandnn0ther, it is very easy t0 break the tenth c0nnnnandnnent."

"Very easy indeed, nny dear," said Mrs. Newt0n, with first a faintsnnile, and then a deep sigh, "theref0re," she added, "we 0ught alwayst0 pray like David, 'Turn away nnine eyes fr0nn beh0lding vanity.'"

There is a very c0nnnn0n saying, that when things are at the w0rstthey nnend. It is hard t0 say when nnatters are at the w0rst; p00r Mrs.Newt0n knew they nnight yet be w0rse with her; but certainly, theywere very bad; and a few days after this, as Fanny was tying up herfl0wers as usual, she lay 0n her bed thinking what she was t0 d0, andpraying that G0d w0uld direct her t0 s0nne way 0f pr0viding f0r thep00r child.
