You
may
make
the
biggest
literary
furore
of
the
season
,
and
that
will
count
as
nothing
among
'
swagger
'
people
,
but
if
you
win
the
Derby
you
will
be
a
really
famous
man
.
Personally
speaking
I
have
a
great
deal
to
do
with
racing
--
in
fact
I
am
devoted
to
it
.
I
am
always
present
at
every
great
race
--
I
never
miss
one
;
I
always
bet
,
and
I
never
lose
!
And
now
let
me
proceed
with
your
social
plan
of
action
.
After
winning
the
Derby
you
will
enter
for
a
yacht
race
at
Cowes
,
and
allow
the
Prince
of
Wales
to
beat
you
just
narrowly
.
Then
you
will
give
a
grand
dinner
,
arranged
by
a
perfect
chef
--
and
you
will
entertain
His
Royal
Highness
to
the
strains
of
'
Britannia
rules
the
waves
,
'
which
will
serve
as
a
pretty
compliment
.
You
will
allude
to
the
same
well-worn
song
in
a
graceful
speech
--
and
the
probable
result
of
all
this
will
be
one
,
or
perhaps
two
Royal
invitations
.
So
far
,
so
good
.
With
the
heats
of
summer
you
will
go
to
Homburg
to
drink
the
waters
there
whether
you
require
them
or
not
--
and
in
the
autumn
you
will
assemble
a
shooting-party
at
the
country
seat
before-mentioned
which
you
will
have
purchased
,
and
invite
Royalty
to
join
you
in
killing
the
poor
little
partridges
.
Then
your
name
in
society
may
be
considered
as
made
,
and
you
can
marry
whatever
fair
lady
happens
to
be
in
the
market
!
"
"
Thanks
!
--
much
obliged
!
"
and
I
gave
way
to
hearty
laughter
--
"
Upon
my
word
Lucio
,
your
programme
is
perfect
!
It
lacks
nothing
!
"
"
It
is
the
orthodox
round
of
social
success
,
"
said
Lucio
with
admirable
gravity
--
"
Intellect
and
originality
have
nothing
whatever
to
do
with
it
--
only
money
is
needed
to
perform
it
all
.
"
"
You
forget
my
book
"
--
I
interposed
--
"
I
know
there
is
some
intellect
in
that
,
and
some
originality
too
.
Surely
that
will
give
me
an
extra
lift
up
the
heights
of
fashionable
light
and
leading
.
"
"
I
doubt
it
!
"
he
answered
--
"
I
very
much
doubt
it
.
It
will
be
received
with
a
certain
amount
of
favour
of
course
,
as
a
production
of
a
rich
man
amusing
himself
with
literature
as
a
sort
of
whim
.
But
,
as
I
told
you
before
,
genius
seldom
develops
itself
under
the
influence
of
wealth
.
Then
again
'
swagger
'
folks
can
never
get
it
out
of
their
fuddled
heads
that
Literature
belongs
to
Grub
Street
.
Great
poets
,
great
philosophers
,
great
romancists
are
always
vaguely
alluded
to
by
'
swagger
'
society
as
'
those
sort
of
people
.
'
Those
sort
of
people
are
so
'
interesting
'
say
the
blue-blooded
noodles
deprecatingly
,
excusing
themselves
as
it
were
for
knowing
any
members
of
the
class
literary
.
You
can
fancy
a
'
swagger
'
lady
of
Elizabeth
's
time
asking
a
friend
--
'
O
do
you
mind
,
my
dear
,
if
I
bring
one
Master
William
Shakespeare
to
see
you
?
He
writes
plays
,
and
does
something
or
other
at
the
Globe
theatre
--
in
fact
I
'm
afraid
he
acts
a
little
--
he
's
not
very
well
off
poor
man
--
but
these
sort
of
people
are
always
so
amusing
!
'
Now
you
,
my
dear
Tempest
,
are
not
a
Shakespeare
,
but
your
millions
will
give
you
a
better
chance
than
he
ever
had
in
his
life-time
,
as
you
will
not
have
to
sue
for
patronage
,
or
practise
a
reverence
for
'
my
lord
'
or
'
my
lady
,
'
--
these
exalted
personages
will
be
only
too
delighted
to
borrow
money
of
you
if
you
will
lend
it
.
"
"
I
shall
not
lend
,
"
--
I
said
.
"
Nor
give
?
"
"
Nor
give
.
