В древнем Лондоне, в холодный осенний день в середине шестнадцатого века, мальчик родился в бедной семье, которая не хотела его. Его зовут Том Кэнти. В тот же день другой английский ребенок родился в богатой семье по имени Тюдор, и они очень хотели ребенка. Вся Англия тоже хотела его. Англичане были так счастливы, что танцевали и пели на улицах целыми днями и ночами. Во всей Англии не было разговоров, а нового ребенка, Эдварда Тюдора, принца Уэльского. Эдвард спал в богатой одежде. Но не было никакого разговора о другом ребенке, Томе Кэнти, который спал в бедных лохмотьях2. Прошло несколько лет. В те дни улицы в Лондоне были грязными, особенно в той части, где жил Том Кэнти. Это было недалеко от Лондонский мост. Дом, в котором жил семья Тома, был очень маленьким, старым и грязным. У семьи Тома Кэнти была комната на третьем этаже. У матери и отца была кровать в углу комнаты, но Том, его бабушка и его две сестры, Бет и Нан, сидели на полу Бет и Нэн, были пятнадцатью летними близнецами3. Они были добрыми девочками, но они не ходили в школу и не могли читать или писать так же, как их мать. Отец и бабушка много пили и много дрались. Отец Тома был вором, его мать была нищим, и они делали нищих своих детей. Это было очень грустно, но Том чувствовал себя счастливым, потому что никогда не знал другой жизни.
