Uncle Tom's Cabin
Authorship not stated
Corn cakes browning at the hearth, two boys wrestling under the table, and the young master of the house down to teach you your letters. You play Uncle Tom, working through one line of print at a time while Aunt Chloe rules the skillet and the supper table. George Shelby mentions that his father kept visitors late in the parlor tonight and sent him away from the door. Then a knock too formal for a neighbor, and George goes without collecting his books, and your Bible stays open at your place.
