        Miss Polly Harrington entered her kitchen a little hurriedly this June morning. Miss Polly did not usually make hurried movements; she specially prided herself on her repose of manner. But to-day she was hurrying–actually hurrying.

                As I walked through the wilderness of this world, I lighted on a certain place where there was a den, and laid me down in that place to sleep; and as I slept, I dreamed a dream.

                      Okay. Boy, I don’t know hardly first lines off hand. Let me look one up.

                      “On an exceptionally hot evening early in July, a young man came out of the garret in which he lodged in S. Place and walked slowly, as though in hesitation, towards K. bridge.”

                              @Daeus Is it, by any chance, Crime and Punishment?

                              *is probably geeking out about something*

                                Just for future reference, does the line have to be the very first line of the actual book, or can it be from the prologue?
