In the library of a stately house, at four o'clock on a New-Year's morning, stands the Burglar, with his dark-lantern in his hand. He has collected in a neat group on the library table, around the large silver inkstand, the silver paper-cutter, the silver seal, the massive silver candlesticks from the mantel, various small bronzes from their brackets, several exquisite small paintings, and some delicate ivory carvings. He looks at these objects with an air of satisfaction, and then, in a spirit of tireless enterprise, with the purpose of amassing greater value, he makes the light of his lantern play vividly about the room. It falls at last on the figure of the Little Child, who has so softly opened the door from the hallway as to have entered unheard. She is in her nightgown, and as the light strikes her the Burglar starts back, while she puts her hand to her eyes to shield them from the glare. She speaks in the high, piping voice of children on the stage; the Burglar rolls a husky bass from his bearded lips .
