Reading edition
“I had nothing but reproaches in the house; in place of consolation, they gave me maledictions. My neighbors, who had heard of this affair [the failure of an experiment], said that I was nothing but a fool, and that I might have had more than eight francs for the things that I had broken; and all this talk was brought to mingle with my grief.”—“Palissy the Potter,” Vol. I., p. 190. By Henry Morley. Boston: Ticknor, Reed & Fields, 1853.
