The impatient children couldn’t wait to gather around the basket. They shouted and fought for the bread because each wished to have the largest bread. At last they went away without even thanking the good gentleman. But Shirley, a poorly-dressed little girl, did not join them. Instead, she remained standing quietly there.

Be quick, Shirley! Be quick!”
