They were both of the same age by length of years, yet one was still young, and the other was already old. They had dwelt together almost all their days ; both were orphaned and destitute, and owed their lives to the same hand. It had been the beginning of the tie between them, their first bond of sympathy; and it had strengthened day by day, and had grown with their growth, firm and indissoluble, until they loved one another very greatly. Their home was a little hut on the edge of a little vil...lage, — a Flemish village a league from Antwerp, set amidst flat breadths of pasture and corn-lands, with long lines of poplars and of alders bending in the breeze on the edge of the great canal which ran through it. It had about a score of houses and homesteads, with shutters of bright green or sky-blue, and roofs rose-red or black and white, and walls whitewashed imtil they shone in the sun Uke snow. In the centre of the village stood a windmill, placed on a little moss-grown slope ; it was a landmark to all the level country round.
