Doctor Goldsmith (1)

Doctor Goldsmith (1)
 
There was a kind man whose name was Oliver Goldsmith.

He wrote many delightful books, some of which you will read when you are older.

He had a gentle heart.
he was always ready to help others and to share with them anything that he had.

He gave away so much to the poor that he was always poor himself.

He was sometimes called Doctor Goldsmith; for he had studied to be a physician.

One day a poor woman asked Doctor Goldsmith to go and see her husband, who was sick and could not eat.

Goldsmith did so.
He found that the family was in great need.

The man had not had work for a long time.
He was not sick, but in distress.
And as for eating, there was no food in the house.
