Excerpt from His Majesty Baby and Some Common People
Until the "bus stopped and the old gentleman entered, we had been a contented and genial company, travelling from a suburb into the city in high, good fellowship, and our absolute monarch was Baby. His mother was evidently the wife of a well-doing artisan, a wise-looking, capable, bonnie young woman; and Baby was not a marvel of attire, nor could he be called beautiful. He was dressed after a careful, tidy, comfortable fashion, and he was a clear-skinned, healthy child; that is all you would have noticed had you met the two on the street. In a "bus where there is nothing to do for forty minutes except stare into one another"s faces, a baby has the great chance of his life, and this baby was made to seize it.
