BIBLE, THE HOLY. Oxford, 1836.
Inscribed "Samuel Butler, from his affectionate Godmother and Aunt Anna Worsley, September 13th, 1836." So that he was not christened till he was more than nine months old, and he used to say that this delay was a risky business, because during all those months the devil had the run of him. He imitated the inscription in this Bible for the inscription in the christening Bible which Ernest spurns from him when he is about to undertake the conversion of Miss Maitland in chapter lx. of _The Way of All Flesh_. But he imitated it too closely for he wrote, "It was the Bible given him at his christening by his affectionate Godmother and Aunt, Elizabeth Allaby." Whereas Ernest only had one godmother, and she was Alethea, the sister of Theobald. Anna Worsley was a sister of Butler's mother, and Elizabeth Allaby was a sister of Ernest's mother.
