Cinderella

"She must, then, be very beautiful indeed; how happy

you have been! Could not I see her? Ah! dear Miss

Charlotte, do lend me your yellow suit of clothes which

you wear every day."

"Ay, to be sure!" cried Miss Charlotte; "lend my

clothes to such a dirty Cinderwench as thou art! I

should be a fool."

Cinderella, indeed, expected well such answer, and was

very glad of the refusal; for she would have been sadly

put to it if her sister had lent her what she asked for

jestingly.
