text_original: My aunts themselves were nice and orderly, and went on from day to day in the same manner, and, as far as they knew, they were good women; but they knew very little about religion, and what people do not understand they cannot practise. [Illustration: "_Mrs. Grace taught me to sew, and Mrs. Penelope taught me to read._"  Page 10.] "I was but a very little girl when I came to live with my aunts, and they kept me under their care till I was married. As far as they knew what was right, they took great pains with me. Mrs. Grace taught me to sew, and Mrs. Penelope taught me to read. I had a writing and music master, who came from Reading to teach me twice a week; and I was taught all kinds of household work by my aunts' maid.
