The Sabbath day and a child’s lesson in life
A mother reflects on a quiet Sabbath morning as Hetty seeks a wax doll, the refusal leads to a stern discipline, a cut from scissors injures the child, and remorse follows. The scene shifts to a cleansing repentance as the mother finally consoles Hetty with Dolly and vows to balance duty with tenderness.
