It was with a trembling and reluctant hand , that the child held out to him the money which the lady had given her at the races for her flowers : faltering in her thanks as she thought how small the sum was , and blushing as she offered it . But he bade her put it up , and stooping to kiss her cheek , turned back into his house .
