A small child would make his first reading by the woodcuts (which are much like a child's drawings): here, first, are little Margery and her brother, left, like the Children in the Wood "to the Wide World"; here is Tommy Two-Shoes (at an incredibly tender age) dressed like a little sailor"_Pray look at him_",and there again, wiping off Margery's tears with the end of his jacket"_thus_"and bidding her cry no more, for that he will come to her again when he returns from sea.
