One evening when, at bedtime, his sisters and I stood round him, bidding him good-night, he kissed each of them, as was his custom; and, as was equally his custom, he gave me his hand.
Una noche, al ir a acostarnos, le rodeamos como de costumbre para desearle buenas noches, y como de costumbre también, después de besarle sus hermanas, él y yo nos dimos la mano.
