Reader's note

A red and gold 1904 edition of Adam Bede, novel written by George Eliot. One has to love the accents of the characters in this classic title as this extract from Chapter XI demonstrates beautifully - “Thee dostna know? Nay; how’s thee to know? Th’ men ne’er know whether the floor’s cleaned or cat-licked. But thee’lt know when thee gets thy parridge burnt, as it’s like enough to be when I’n gi’en o’er makin’ it. Thee’lt think thy mother war good for summat then.” “Dinah,” said Seth, “do come and sit down now and have your breakfast. We’re all served now.” “Aye, come an’ sit ye down—do,” said Lisbeth, “an’ ate a morsel; ye’d need, arter bein’ upo’ your legs this hour an’ half a’ready. Come, then,” she added, in a tone of complaining affection, as Dinah sat down by her side, “I’ll be loath for ye t’ go, but ye canna stay much longer, I doubt. I could put up wi’ ye i’ th’ house better nor wi’ most folks.” - beautifully written in the manner that it truly would have been spoken! This lovely old book is a joy to behold.
