| Back | Mr. Palmer maintained the common, but unfatherly opinion among his sex, of all infants being alike; and though she could plainly perceive, at different times, the most striking resemblance between this baby and every one of his relations on both sides, there was no convincing his father of it; no persuading him to believe that it was not exactly like every other baby of the same age; nor could he even be brought to acknowledge the simple proposition of its being the finest child in the world. |

| Front | El señor Palmer persistía en la opinión tan extendida entre su sexo, pero tan poco paternal, de que todos los recién nacidos eran iguales; y aunque ella percibía con toda claridad en distintos momentos la más asombrosa semejanza entre este niño y cada uno de sus parientes por ambos lados, no había forma de convencer de ello a su padre, ni de hacerlo reconocer que no era exactamente como cualquier otra criatura de la misma edad; ni siquiera se lo podía llevar a admitir la simple afirmación de que era el niño más hermoso del mundo. |
