On my return home, I was met by a child(as she seemed to me) carrying a baby, in whose behalf she begged me forsome clothes. On making some enquiry, I was amazed to find that the childwas her own: she said she was married and... fourteen years old, she lookedmuch younger even than that, poor creature.
