A
small
white
-
headed
boy
with
a
sunburnt
face
appeared
at
the
door
while
he
was
speaking
,
and
stopping
there
to
make
a
rustic
bow
,
came
in
and
took
his
seat
upon
one
of
the
forms
.
The
white
-
headed
boy
then
put
an
open
book
,
astonishingly
dog
’
s
-
eared
upon
his
knees
,
and
thrusting
his
hands
into
his
pockets
began
counting
the
marbles
with
which
they
were
filled
;
displaying
in
the
expression
of
his
face
a
remarkable
capacity
of
totally
abstracting
his
mind
from
the
spelling
on
which
his
eyes
were
fixed
.
Soon
afterwards
another
white
-
headed
little
boy
came
straggling
in
,
and
after
him
a
red
-
headed
lad
,
and
after
him
two
more
with
white
heads
,
and
then
one
with
a
flaxen
poll
,
and
so
on
until
the
forms
were
occupied
by
a
dozen
boys
or
thereabouts
,
with
heads
of
every
colour
but
grey
,
and
ranging
in
their
ages
from
four
years
old
to
fourteen
years
or
more
;
for
the
legs
of
the
youngest
were
a
long
way
from
the
floor
when
he
sat
upon
the
form
,
and
the
eldest
was
a
heavy
good
-
tempered
foolish
fellow
,
about
half
a
head
taller
than
the
schoolmaster
.
At
the
top
of
the
first
form
—
the
post
of
honour
in
the
school
—
was
the
vacant
place
of
the
little
sick
scholar
,
and
at
the
head
of
the
row
of
pegs
on
which
those
who
came
in
hats
or
caps
were
wont
to
hang
them
up
,
one
was
left
empty
.
No
boy
attempted
to
violate
the
sanctity
of
seat
or
peg
,
but
many
a
one
looked
from
the
empty
spaces
to
the
schoolmaster
,
and
whispered
his
idle
neighbour
behind
his
hand
.
Then
began
the
hum
of
conning
over
lessons
and
getting
them
by
heart
,
the
whispered
jest
and
stealthy
game
,
and
all
the
noise
and
drawl
of
school
;
and
in
the
midst
of
the
din
sat
the
poor
schoolmaster
,
the
very
image
of
meekness
and
simplicity
,
vainly
attempting
to
fix
his
mind
upon
the
duties
of
the
day
,
and
to
forget
his
little
friend
.
But
the
tedium
of
his
office
reminded
him
more
strongly
of
the
willing
scholar
,
and
his
thoughts
were
rambling
from
his
pupils
—
it
was
plain
.
None
knew
this
better
than
the
idlest
boys
,
who
,
growing
bolder
with
impunity
,
waxed
louder
and
more
daring
;
playing
odd
-
or
-
even
under
the
master
’
s
eye
,
eating
apples
openly
and
without
rebuke
,
pinching
each
other
in
sport
or
malice
without
the
least
reserve
,
and
cutting
their
autographs
in
the
very
legs
of
his
desk
.
The
puzzled
dunce
,
who
stood
beside
it
to
say
his
lesson
out
of
book
,
looked
no
longer
at
the
ceiling
for
forgotten
words
,
but
drew
closer
to
the
master
’
s
elbow
and
boldly
cast
his
eye
upon
the
page
;
the
wag
of
the
little
troop
squinted
and
made
grimaces
(
at
the
smallest
boy
of
course
)
,
holding
no
book
before
his
face
,
and
his
approving
audience
knew
no
constraint
in
their
delight
.
If
the
master
did
chance
to
rouse
himself
and
seem
alive
to
what
was
going
on
,
the
noise
subsided
for
a
moment
and
no
eyes
met
his
but
wore
a
studious
and
a
deeply
humble
look
;
but
the
instant
he
relapsed
again
,
it
broke
out
afresh
,
and
ten
times
louder
than
before
.
Oh
!
how
some
of
those
idle
fellows
longed
to
be
outside
,
and
how
they
looked
at
the
open
door
and
window
,
as
if
they
half
meditated
rushing
violently
out
,
plunging
into
the
woods
,
and
being
wild
boys
and
savages
from
that
time
forth
.
What
rebellious
thoughts
of
the
cool
river
,
and
some
shady
bathing
-
place
beneath
willow
trees
with
branches
dipping
in
the
water
,
kept
tempting
and
urging
that
sturdy
boy
,
who
,
with
his
shirt
-
collar
unbuttoned
and
flung
back
as
far
as
it
could
go
,
sat
fanning
his
flushed
face
with
a
spelling
-
book
,
wishing
himself
a
whale
,
or
a
tittlebat
,
or
a
fly
,
or
anything
but
a
boy
at
school
on
that
hot
,
broiling
day
!
Heat
!
ask
that
other
boy
,
whose
seat
being
nearest
to
the
door
gave
him
opportunities
of
gliding
out
into
the
garden
and
driving
his
companions
to
madness
by
dipping
his
face
into
the
bucket
of
the
well
and
then
rolling
on
the
grass
—
ask
him
if
there
were
ever
such
a
day
as
that
,
when
even
the
bees
were
diving
deep
down
into
the
cups
of
flowers
and
stopping
there
,
as
if
they
had
made
up
their
minds
to
retire
from
business
and
be
manufacturers
of
honey
no
more
.
The
day
was
made
for
laziness
,
and
lying
on
one
’
s
back
in
green
places
,
and
staring
at
the
sky
till
its
brightness
forced
one
to
shut
one
’
s
eyes
and
go
to
sleep
;
and
was
this
a
time
to
be
poring
over
musty
books
in
a
dark
room
,
slighted
by
the
very
sun
itself
?
Monstrous
!
Nell
sat
by
the
window
occupied
with
her
work
,
but
attentive
still
to
all
that
passed
,
though
sometimes
rather
timid
of
the
boisterous
boys
.
The
lessons
over
,
writing
time
began
;
and
there
being
but
one
desk
and
that
the
master
’
s
,
each
boy
sat
at
it
in
turn
and
laboured
at
his
crooked
copy
,
while
the
master
walked
about
.
This
was
a
quieter
time
;
for
he
would
come
and
look
over
the
writer
’
s
shoulder
,
and
tell
him
mildly
to
observe
how
such
a
letter
was
turned
in
such
a
copy
on
the
wall
,
praise
such
an
up
-
stroke
here
and
such
a
down
-
stroke
there
,
and
bid
him
take
it
for
his
model
.
Then
he
would
stop
and
tell
them
what
the
sick
child
had
said
last
night
,
and
how
he
had
longed
to
be
among
them
once
again
;
and
such
was
the
poor
schoolmaster
’
s
gentle
and
affectionate
manner
,
that
the
boys
seemed
quite
remorseful
that
they
had
worried
him
so
much
,
and
were
absolutely
quiet
;
eating
no
apples
,
cutting
no
names
,
inflicting
no
pinches
,
and
making
no
grimaces
,
for
full
two
minutes
afterwards
.
‘
I
think
,
boys
,
’
said
the
schoolmaster
when
the
clock
struck
twelve
,
‘
that
I
shall
give
an
extra
half
-
holiday
this
afternoon
.
’
At
this
intelligence
,
the
boys
,
led
on
and
headed
by
the
tall
boy
,
raised
a
great
shout
,
in
the
midst
of
which
the
master
was
seen
to
speak
,
but
could
not
be
heard
.
As
he
held
up
his
hand
,
however
,
in
token
of
his
wish
that
they
should
be
silent
,
they
were
considerate
enough
to
leave
off
,
as
soon
as
the
longest
-
winded
among
them
were
quite
out
of
breath
.
