The SNOW-CHILD (1) [The SNOW-CHILD]
The SNOW-CHILD (1)
ONE afternoon of a cold winter's day, when the sun shone with chilly brightness after a long storm, two children asked leave of their mother to ran out and play in the new-fallen snow.
The elder child was a little girl called Violet, and her brother was known as Poeny, on account of the ruddiness of his round little face.
The children lived in a city, and had no wider play-place than a little garden in front of the house, divided by a white fence from the street, and with a pear-tree and two or three plum-trees overshadowing it, and some rose-bushes just in front of the parlour windows.
The trees and shrubs, however, were now leafless, and their twigs were enveloped in the light snow.
" Yes, Violet. Yes, Peony, " said their mother; " you may go out and play in the new snow. "
