Excerpt from Oliver Twist By Charles Dickens The medical gentleman walked away to
dinner and the nurse, having otae more
applied herself to the green bottle, sat down
on a low chair before the fire, and proceeded
to dress the infant. What an excellent example
of the power of dress, young Oliver Twist was!
Wrapped in the blanket which had hitherto
formed his only covering, he might have been
the child of a nobleman or a beaglandit would
Chave been hard for the haughtiest stranger to
have assigned him his proper station in society
But now that he was enveloped in the old
calico robes which had grown yellow in the
same service, he was badged and ticketed,
and fell into his place at once a parish child-
the orphan of a workhouse-the humble, half-
starved drudge to be cuffed and buffeted
through the world-despised by all, and pitied
by none
Oliver cried lustily. If he could have known that
he was an orphan left to the tender mercies of
church-wardens and overseers, perhaps he
would have cried the louder.
