Side 315 - Take comfort," said the child ; "I shall not suffer always!" Gomin knelt down, that he might be nearer to him. "The child took his hand, and pressed it to his lips. The pious heart of Gomin prompted an ardent prayer — one of those prayers that misery wrings from man, and love sends up to God. The child did not let go the faithful hand that still remained to him, and raised his eyes to heaven while Gomin prayed for him.
Side 320 - The event is not of the least importance," they repeated, several times over ; " the police commissary of the section will come and receive the declaration of the decease; he will acknowledge it, and proceed to the interment without any ceremony; and the committee will give the necessary directions."
