“There now,” said Uncle John Philip, “there’s a song about the lady, and some time I’ll tell you the most wonderful fairy story you ever heard.”
“You are the best uncle in the world,” said Dorothy, now smiling and happy.
“Here are your spectacles. I don’t believe they’ll ever make you see dreadful things again.”
“Dorothy, child,” said the wise man, “my spectacles were blurred and dim, but they have been washed in the tears of a little child, and henceforth I shall see better.”
