In these poorer dwellings we witness much suffering; but we learn to respect the patience and resignation with which it is generally borne, and in the greater part of the humble homes we visit we become aware of the existence of many domestic virtues, we see numerous tokens of family affection, of filial reverence, of parental love.
Who acts: we, many domestic virtues · What happens: learn, respect, bear, visit, become, see · To what, where: poorer dwellings, patience, smoke, greater part, numerous tokens
