The wind
whistled in his ears, he heard the church door creak on its hinges as it closed,
and it seemed to him as if he had lost his senses- then a cold shudder passed
over him, and he awoke. It was morning; the Metal Pig stood in its old place on
the Porta Rosa, and the boy found he had slipped nearly off its back. Fear and
trembling came upon him as he thought of his mother; she had sent him out the
day before to get some money, he had not done so, and now he was hungry and
thirsty.
Once more he clasped the neck of his metal horse, kissed its
nose, and nodded farewell to it. Then he wandered away into one of the narrowest
streets, where there was scarcely room for a loaded donkey to pass. A great
iron-bound door stood ajar; he passed through, and climbed up a brick staircase,
with dirty walls and a rope for a balustrade, till he came to an open gallery
hung with rags. From here a flight of steps led down to a court, where from a
well water was drawn up by iron rollers to the different stories of the house,
and where the water-buckets hung side by side.
Sometimes the roller and
the bucket danced in the air, splashing the water all over the court. Another
broken-down staircase led from the gallery, and two Russian sailors running down
it almost upset the poor boy. They were coming from their nightly carousal. A
woman not very young, with an unpleasant face and a quantity of black hair,
followed them. "What have you brought home?" she asked. when she saw the boy.
"Don't be angry," he pleaded; "I received nothing, I have nothing at all;" and
he seized his mother's dress and would have kissed it.
