In this condition, and fainting for want of food, he laid himself down at the door of one Mr. Fitzwarren, a merchant, where the cook saw him, and being very ill-natur- ed, ordered him to go about his business* or she would make linn. At A is time Mr. Fitz-varrai came IVom the exchange, and began also to scold the poor hoy, bid- ding him to go to work. Wliittington answered he should be glad to work ; but he was unable at present, lot- he had eat nothing for three days and knew nobody. He then e...ndeavoured to get Up, but was so very weak that Jhe fell down again. This excited the merchant's pity, who ordered the servants to take him in, give him some food, and let him help the cook to do any drudgery she had to set him about. People are too apt to reproach those who beg with being idle, but strive not to put them in a way of getting business, or consider whether they are able to do it. He would have lived happily in this wor- thy family, had he not been knocked about by the cross cook, who kept him roasting or basting, and when the spit was still, she employed her hands upon poor Whittington, till Miss Alice, his master's daughter, was informed of it, who made the servants use him kindly.
