Jose feared very much I should die : he watched over me with the greatest anxiety and kindness, for he was really very fond of me ; and when at length I recovered sufficiently to open my eyes, his joy knew no bounds ; he sung, whistled, clapped his hands, and jumped and danced with delight, (for his ankle had quite recover- ed during my illness) He fetched me some bread and milk, which by his entreaties I was at length induced to eat ; and it did me a great deal of good, for I was A MARMOTTE. 1...9 soon able to move about ; and being kept in the warm kitchen by the fire side, was quite recovered before spring arrived, with its delightful warm sun, which made me gayer and merrier than ever. The cruel Simon was shunned by all the village ; for no good little child would play with him after he had behaved so wickedly to a poor animal which could not defend itself. One day, while at Aosta, a pretty town seated at the foot of the Alps, on the river Dora, capital of the valley of the same name, whither I had accompanied my Master on a visit to his friends, as I was sitting outside the window, waiting the return of Jose", who had gone on a message, my attention was attracted by an ugly sallow -looking boy, who spoke so strange a language, I could not at all understand him : induced by my curiosity, which is a most shocking propensity in little boys and girls, as well as in animals, I went close to him, hoping to discover what he was saying.
