her doors, but little Jan and his mother entered a new world of love
and tenderness together that Christmas morning. As Rough Moll gathered
her little son up into her arms and held him closely to her breast,

VI. THE SHEPHERD OF PENDLE HILL
_'On Pendle G.F. saw people as
thick as motes in the sun, that
should in time be brought home to
the Lord, that there might be but
one Shepherd and one Sheepfold in

that never fell or changed, nor
ever will fail or change, nor
leave the flock in the cold

you in any weather, or in any

sheep know his voice and follow
Him, who gives them life eternal
abundantly.'--GEORGE FOX._
