Extract from the text: "My! there was a lot of us, about a hundred. That's too many, isn't it? An' they all finished up wif Eden. You'd fink they'd like a change now an' then, wouldn't you? But even Mummereden an' Daddereden didn't want a change—not once they didn't—even for a Christmas Day. Just Mistereden and Missuseden right from ever since they was. You'd get sick of it wouldn't you?"
