FRONTISPIECE--Mr. and Mrs. Fairchild had three children, Lucy, Emily and Henry.
Good children 3
They ran on before 5
Here were abundance of flowers 8
"I sat down on one of the branches to eat cherries" 9
Mrs. Grace taught me to sew, and Mrs. Penelope taught me to read 11
"How lovely! How beautiful!" 19
She saw that it was a ring 24
Henry stood under the apple-tree 25
There was one he could just reach 27
Behind the stable 33
Lucy and Emily 34
Away he ran into the garden, followed by Lucy and Emily 37
They went along the great gallery 45
Emily and Lucy had never seen such fine clothes before 53
Dressed 58
At last she fell asleep 59
She took two or three damsons, which she ate in great haste 61
"What sound is that I hear?" said Emily 67
Emily and her brother and sister went to play in the garden 69
"I'll see now if I can't spoil Miss Patty's smart silk slip" 75
Looking in the glass, with a candle in her hand 84
"Please choose a book for me" 87
Henry reads the story 91
Marten behaved well at breakfast 92
A little old lady, dressed in a gray silk gown, came into the kitchen 99
Marten goes to school 106
Henri stood at the window 107
"Do you remember anything of the sermon?" 131
Miss Betsy 142
The children looked at the kittens 143
Drinking tea at the door of the cottage, round the little table 147
Miss Crosbie spoke kindly to her 150
In the summer parlour 159
When Betty returned, Mrs. Howard was well satisfied 162
The happy little girls went with the dolls into the bow-window 175
The coach came in sight 181
Henry looked along the road 184
He turned away from the terrible bird 189
Could it be her own--her Edwy? She could hardly be sure of her happiness 199
"Oh Papa! Mamma! Come to Edwy!" 202
"She will get amongst the shrubs," said Emily 203
Emily and Henry gave their supper to the little children 213
The magpie on the stile 215
Preparing the peas for supper 216
A sturdy boy of four, roaring and blubbering 222
They had a game at marbles 228
The noise continued till the two brothers were fairly out of the house 231
Kind Mrs. Burke gave him a piece of bread and honey 238
Lucy and Emily had now each a doll 245
Going gaily down the hill 258
Margot rose and made a curtsey 263
Meeta offered to carry the honey 285
"She does not know that I made a slit in my frock" 286
Cutting off faded flowers, and picking up the dead leaves 297
Off she ran after him 299
She saw Bessy amongst some gooseberry bushes 300
"What! what!" cried Mrs. Goodriche 303
Bessy was crying most piteously 313
"At four I shall hope to call for Mrs. Goodriche and Miss Lucy" 319
Bessy was very sorry to leave her young friends 326
But when Bernard was actually to go there was such a to-do 333
"Let us sit here under the shade of a tree" 341
He took up a slip of wood 353
There was no end of the indulgences given in private to the boy 354
Bernard rushed to meet Lucilla 381
She only seemed anxious that Lucy and Emily should look well 382
For a long time they were all very still with their toys 387
In their neatest morning dress 399
"Will Lucy love me?" said the old lady 400
"Here, ma'am, you can gather any you like" 408
It was Emily's step 415
Grandmamma was very much pleased with Lucy's stories 416
A hundred years ago 420
To teach little Francis his letters 421
"I cannot tell what the child's head is running on" 431
To hang flowers round its neck 445
Miss Anne Vaughan led her niece by the hand 446
"What a bustle there is to get ready on a dancing day" 451
Henry reminded her of the robin 464
Someone was waving something white 470
