Most
of
the
servants
in
our
street
have
had
the
loan
of
him
to
be
photographed
with
,
and
I
have
but
now
seen
him
stalking
off
for
that
purpose
with
a
proud
little
housemaid
who
is
looking
up
to
him
as
if
he
were
a
warrior
for
whom
she
had
paid
a
shilling
.
"
Again
,
when
David
and
Porthos
are
in
their
bath
,
praise
is
due
to
the
one
and
must
be
withheld
from
the
other
.
For
David
,
as
I
have
noticed
,
loves
to
splash
in
his
bath
and
to
slip
back
into
it
from
the
hands
that
would
transfer
him
to
a
towel
.
But
Porthos
stands
in
his
bath
drooping
abjectly
like
a
shamed
figure
cut
out
of
some
limp
material
.
"
Furthermore
,
the
inventiveness
of
David
is
beyond
that
of
Porthos
,
who
can
not
play
by
himself
,
and
knows
not
even
how
to
take
a
solitary
walk
,
while
David
invents
playfully
all
day
long
.
Lastly
,
when
David
is
discovered
of
some
offence
and
expresses
sorrow
therefor
,
he
does
that
thing
no
more
for
a
time
,
but
looks
about
him
for
other
offences
,
whereas
Porthos
incontinently
repeats
his
offence
,
in
other
words
,
he
again
buries
his
bone
in
the
backyard
,
and
marvels
greatly
that
I
know
it
,
although
his
nose
be
crusted
with
earth
.
"
Touching
these
matters
,
therefore
,
let
it
be
granted
that
David
excels
Porthos
;
and
in
divers
similar
qualities
the
one
is
no
more
than
a
match
for
the
other
,
as
in
the
quality
of
curiosity
;
for
,
if
a
parcel
comes
into
my
chambers
Porthos
is
miserable
until
it
is
opened
,
and
I
have
noticed
the
same
thing
of
David
.
"
Also
there
is
the
taking
of
medicine
.
For
at
production
of
the
vial
all
gaiety
suddenly
departs
from
Porthos
and
he
looks
the
other
way
,
but
if
I
say
I
have
forgotten
to
have
the
vial
refilled
he
skips
joyfully
,
yet
thinks
he
still
has
a
right
to
a
chocolate
,
and
when
I
remarked
disparagingly
on
this
to
David
he
looked
so
shy
that
there
was
revealed
to
me
a
picture
of
a
certain
lady
treating
him
for
youthful
maladies
.
"
A
thing
to
be
considered
of
in
both
is
their
receiving
of
punishments
,
and
I
am
now
reminded
that
the
girl
Irene
(
whom
I
take
in
this
matter
to
be
your
mouthpiece
)
complains
that
I
am
not
sufficiently
severe
with
David
,
and
do
leave
the
chiding
of
him
for
offences
against
myself
to
her
in
the
hope
that
he
will
love
her
less
and
me
more
thereby
.
Which
we
have
hotly
argued
in
the
Gardens
to
the
detriment
of
our
dignity
.
And
I
here
say
that
if
I
am
slow
to
be
severe
to
David
,
the
reason
thereof
is
that
I
dare
not
be
severe
to
Porthos
,
and
I
have
ever
sought
to
treat
the
one
the
same
with
the
other
.
"
Now
I
refrain
from
raising
hand
or
voice
to
Porthos
because
his
great
heart
is
nigh
to
breaking
if
he
so
much
as
suspects
that
all
is
not
well
between
him
and
me
,
and
having
struck
him
once
some
years
ago
never
can
I
forget
the
shudder
which
passed
through
him
when
he
saw
it
was
I
who
had
struck
,
and
I
shall
strike
him
,
ma'am
,
no
more
.
But
when
he
is
detected
in
any
unseemly
act
now
,
it
is
my
stern
practice
to
cane
my
writing
table
in
his
presence
,
and
even
this
punishment
is
almost
more
than
he
can
bear
.
Wherefore
if
such
chastisement
inflicted
on
David
encourages
him
but
to
enter
upon
fresh
trespasses
(
as
the
girl
Irene
avers
)
,
the
reason
must
be
that
his
heart
is
not
like
unto
that
of
the
noble
Porthos
.
"
And
if
you
retort
that
David
is
naturally
a
depraved
little
boy
,
and
so
demands
harsher
measure
,
I
have
still
my
answer
,
to
wit
,
what
is
the
manner
of
severity
meted
out
to
him
at
home
?
And
lest
you
should
shuffle
in
your
reply
I
shall
mention
a
notable
passage
that
has
come
to
my
ears
.
