Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Adventures of Philip on His Way Through the World, Vol. 1 of 3: Shewing Who Robbed Him, Who Helped Him, and Who Passed Him
Not attend her own son when he is ill mother. She does not deserve to have a son! And Mrs. Pendennis looked towards her own only darling whilst uttering this indignant exclamation. As she looked, I know what passed through her mind. She nursed me: she dressed me in little caps and long clothes: she attired me in my first jacket and trousers she watched at my bedside through my infantile and juvenile ailments: she tended me through all my life: she held me to her heart with infinite prayers and blessings. She is no longer with us to bless and pray but from heaven, where she is, I know her love pursues me; and often and often I think she is here, only invisible.
