It had so happened that poor 270 THE EETTJEN Eobin himself, always generous, especially to the boys whom their sister loved so dearly, had presented them the Christ- mas before with a Dutch toy called a ^Noah's Ark, consisting of a curiously fashioned compound of boat and house, filled not merely with the quaintly habited wooden figures representing the Patriarch's family, attired with an am- plitude of apparel and a splendour of colouring which did honour to the Hol- lander's fancy, but with a... variety of pairs of animals decked in hues almost as splen- did and quite as unlike nature as those with which the Dutch artist had bedecked our antediluvian progenitors. Over this toy, preserved for them with great care by the grandmother, the young students in natural history were quietly seated, so deeply engaged in comparing those beasts which they had seen in the morn- ing with their wooden prototypes in the FROM THE FAIR. 271 Ark (where, by the way, they were most inartificially stowed one above the other, the receptacle being scarcely capable of containing them when shoved in en masse^ whence divers accidents to leg and tail, head and horn), that nothing short of a proposal to revisit Signer Polito's mena- gerie could have stirred them.
