Book excerpt: Excerpt from Burford Cottage, and Its Robin-Red-Breast Don't be too much in a hurry, Emily, said Mrs. Paulett wait till the weather grows colder, and all the leaves have fallen; and then he will leave his hiding-places, and come to you himself, and hop upon the window-sill, and even into the room, if you do but save him from the cat; but, if you disturb him now, you will frighten him away, and he will go to some other garden, where there are no impatient chil dren to tease him; and we shall never hear his pretty note, nor see his smooth olive back, and large dark eye, and orange breast, in the bright frosty mornings, or under the dull gray skies of the long winter that is coming! What a very foolish girl Emily is, mamma, burst forth her presumptuous brother, Richard, who had lived two years longer than herself: she is always so impatient; she never stays for anything, he' concluded, echoing and enlarging upon the word which had been made use of by his mother. And are you much wiser or more patient than your sister, Mr. Grave-airs? Said Mrs. Paulett, check. Ing, though with a laugh, the tone of superiority assumed by the young heir-apparent. You were upon the start, and with an exclamation of an O!' at the very moment when your sister thought it best to ask her papa where the bird was to be found, before she sprang away with her crumbs!
