Harriet Quotes

“When Harriet plays with matches, she is ‘burnt with all her clothes’ on. When Conrad sucks his thumbs, they are cut off by the ‘great, long, red-legg’d, scissor-man’.”

“But Harriet would not take advice, She lit a match, it was so nice! It crackled so, it burn’d so clear, - Exactly like the picture here. She jump’d for joy and ran about and was too pleas’d to put it out.”
