He visited this den at night, when the children had returned from their day's work, and found them three or four together on each filthy bed, all naked, boys and girls being thrown together with- out any distinction ; around the walls of this cell were hung the rags which covered them during the day and the instruments on which they played. On a small chest of drawers were placed eleven little heaps of sous, varying in amount from three sous to three francs, — the produce of the day's wandering... minstrelsy. Not one of these sous ever entered the pockets of the boys who had earned them, who receive nothing from their padroni, except a breakfast con- sisting of a plateful of black broth, at which even the best disciplined Spartan boy would have turned up his nose. With this morning's meal he was sent off on his daily task, being expected to find a dinner THE LITTLE ITALIAN ORGAN-GRINDER. 101 where he best could. And long experience had taught the children that the best chance of a dinner was to stand imploringly before the door of a cook- shop, and receive whatever bones or bits of meat, or broken pieces of bread the charity of the owner might accord.
