Away from the Place , and over Harthover Fell , and down Lewthwaite Crag ! Who ever heard the like , if God had n't led him ? Why dost not eat thy bread ? '' `` I ca n't . '' `` It 's good enough , for I made it myself . '' `` I ca n't , '' said Tom , and he laid his head on his knees , and then asked - `` Is it Sunday ? '' `` No , then ; why should it be ? '' `` Because I hear the church-bells ringing so . '' `` Bless thy pretty heart ! The bairn 's sick . Come wi ' me , and I 'll hap thee up somewhere . If thou wert a bit cleaner I 'd put thee in my own bed , for the Lord 's sake . But come along here . ''
