Aunt Betsey is in her garden when she spies David. “Get along! No boys here!”

“If you please, aunt, I am your nephew,” he replies, surprising her so much that she sits down flat on the garden path.

Dickens tries to imagine what David will say to convince his aunt to take him in.

But by now his eyes are heavy with sleep. He blows out the candle and pulls his thin blanket close. He is all alone.

Is the boy called Dickens an orphan like the runaway boy in his imaginary tale? Reader, he is not. Where, then, is his family?

That mystery must wait for morning.
