Little Barefoot

F. Thelen-Rüden artist M. Weber, Engraver

BARFÜSSLE, or Little Barefoot, a German peasant child. She was
early orphaned and left alone in the world with her brother,
dependent upon the parish in which her father and mother had
lived. From them she bad inherited a sturdy independence that made her
refuse to accept any gift she had not earned, and willing to do any work to
support herself . She was first gooseherd, then domestic servant on a farms.
To save her shoes, she went barefoot, and thus earned her nickname. Her
brother was a weak, incompetent boy, and upon her fell the burden of plan-
ning and caring for him. She was taken to a wedding feast, as a rare
treat, and while there danced with a young man, to whom she lost her heart.
He was a stranger, and came to her home, later, seeking a wife among the
farmers daughter(s. Finding her, however, he asked her to be his wife, and
took her from her position as servant to his own fine farm, several leagues
from her old home. Berthold Auerbach's Barfüßele

LITTLE BAREFOOT.

BAEDON 99 BARLEYCORN

troop of lieutenant Fitzurse.—Sir W.
Scott
, Ivankoe (time, Richard I.).

Barefoot Boy, reminiscence of the author's own boyhood in Whittier's poem, The Barefoot Boy.
Prince thou art,—the grown-up man
Only is republican.

Barère (2 syl.), an advocate of Toulouse,
called " The Anacreon of the Guillotine."
He was president of the Convention, a
member of the Constitutional Committee,
and chief agent in the condemnation
to death of Louis XVI. As member of the
Committee of Public Safety, he decreed
that "Terror must be the order of the
day." In the first empire Barere bore no
public part, but at the restoration he was
banished from France, and retired to Brus-
sels (1755-18-41).

The filthiest and most spiteful Yahoo of the
fiction was a noble creature compared with the
Barère of history.—Lord Macaulay.

Barfüßele, pretty German child, left an
orphan at a tender age, and east upon the
world. She maintains herself reputably
and resists many temptations until she is
happily married.
