Publisher's Synopsis
"No, Antone, I have told thee many times, no, thou shalt not sell it until I am gone." "But I need money; what good is that old fiddle to thee? The very crows laugh at thee when thou art trying to play. Thy hand trembles so thou canst scarce hold the bow. Thou shalt go with me to the Blue to cut wood to-morrow. See to it thou art up early." "What, on the Sabbath, Antone, when it is so cold? I get so very cold, my son, let us not go to-morrow."
