WORKHOUSE CHARACTERS AND OTHER SKETCHES OF THE LIFE OF THE POOR BY MARGARET WYNNE NEVINSON
Reading edition
L.L.A.
The depth and dream of my desire, The bitter paths wherein I stray. Thou knowest Who hast made the Fire, Thou knowest Who hast made the Clay. One stone the more swings to her place In that dread Temple of Thy Worth— It is enough that through Thy grace I saw naught common on Thy earth. Rudyard Kipling.
LONDON: GEORGE ALLEN & UNWIN LTD. RUSKIN HOUSE 40 MUSEUM STREET, W.C.1
Almost the whole of these sketches have appeared in the Westminster Gazette; the last two were published in the Daily News, and "Widows Indeed" and "The Runaway" in the Herald. It is by the courtesy of the Editors of the above papers that they are reproduced in book form.
