For he thought , the cunning little fellow , `` She will run down some day : or they may forget to wind her up , as old Grimes used to forget to wind up his watch when he came in from the public-house ; and then I shall be safe . '' `` I was wound up once and for all , so long ago , that I forget all about it . '' `` Dear me , '' said Tom , `` you must have been made a long time ! '' `` I never was made , my child ; and I shall go for ever and ever ; for I am as old as Eternity , and yet as young as Time . '' And there came over the lady 's face a very curious expression -- very solemn , and very sad ; and yet very , very sweet . And she looked up and away , as if she were gazing through the sea , and through the sky , at something far , far off ; and as she did so , there came such a quiet , tender , patient , hopeful smile over her face that Tom thought for the moment that she did not look ugly at all . And no more she did ; for she was like a great many people who have not a pretty feature in their faces , and yet are lovely to behold , and draw little children 's hearts to them at once because though the house is plain enough , yet from the windows a beautiful and good spirit is looking forth . And Tom smiled in her face , she looked so pleasant for the moment . And the strange fairy smiled too , and said : `` Yes . You thought me very ugly just now , did you not ? '' Tom hung down his head , and got very red about the ears . `` And I am very ugly . I am the ugliest fairy in the world ; and I shall be , till people behave themselves as they ought to do . And then I shall grow as handsome as my sister , who is the loveliest fairy in the world ; and her name is Mrs. Doasyouwouldbedoneby . So she begins where I end , and I begin where she ends ; and those who will not listen to her must listen to me , as you will see . Now , all of you run away , except Tom ; and he may stay and see what I am going to do . It will be a very good warning for him to begin with , before he goes to school . `` Now , Tom , every Friday I come down here and call up all who have ill-used little children and serve them as they served the children . '' And at that Tom was frightened , and crept under a stone ; which made the two crabs who lived there very angry , and frightened their friend the butter-fish into flapping hysterics : but he would not move for them . And first she called up all the doctors who give little children so much physic -LRB- they were most of them old ones ; for the young ones have learnt better , all but a few army surgeons , who still fancy that a baby 's inside is much like a Scotch grenadier 's -RRB- , and she set them all in a row ; and very rueful they looked ; for they knew what was coming .
And first she pulled all their teeth out ; and then she bled them all round : and then she dosed them with calomel , and jalap , and salts and senna , and brimstone and treacle ; and horrible faces they made ; and then she gave them a great emetic of mustard and water , and no basons ; and began all XXXXX again ; and that was the way she spent the morning .
