"
Well
sir
,
the
prince
has
a
chef
of
his
own
has
n't
he
?
"
said
Morris
enumerating
on
his
fingers
--
"
And
two
personal
attendants
besides
Amiel
--
quiet
fellows
enough
who
help
in
the
waiting
.
Then
he
has
a
coachman
and
groom
.
That
makes
six
servants
altogether
.
Now
none
of
these
except
Amiel
are
ever
seen
in
the
hotel
kitchens
.
The
chef
sends
all
the
meals
in
from
somewhere
,
in
a
heated
receptacle
--
and
the
two
other
fellows
are
never
seen
except
when
waiting
at
table
,
and
they
do
n't
live
in
their
own
rooms
all
day
,
though
they
may
sleep
there
--
and
nobody
knows
where
the
carriage
and
horses
are
put
up
,
or
where
the
coachman
and
groom
lodge
.
Certain
it
is
that
both
they
and
the
chef
board
out
.
It
seems
to
me
very
mysterious
.
"
I
began
to
feel
quite
unreasonably
irritated
.
"
Look
here
,
Morris
,
"
I
said
--
"
There
's
nothing
more
useless
or
more
harmful
than
the
habit
of
inquiring
into
other
people
's
affairs
.
The
prince
has
a
right
to
live
as
he
likes
,
and
do
as
he
pleases
with
his
servants
--
I
am
sure
he
pays
royally
for
his
privileges
.
And
whether
his
cook
lives
in
or
out
,
up
in
the
skies
or
down
in
a
cellar
is
no
matter
of
mine
.
He
has
been
a
great
traveller
and
no
doubt
has
his
peculiarities
;
and
probably
his
notions
concerning
food
are
very
particular
and
fastidious
.
But
I
do
n't
want
to
know
anything
about
his
ménage
.
If
you
dislike
Amiel
,
it
's
easy
to
avoid
him
,
but
for
goodness
sake
do
n't
go
making
mysteries
where
none
exist
.
"
Morris
looked
up
,
then
down
,
and
folded
one
of
my
coats
with
special
care
.
I
saw
I
had
effectually
checked
his
flow
of
confidence
.
"
Very
well
,
sir
,
"
--
he
observed
,
and
said
no
more
.
I
was
rather
diverted
than
otherwise
at
my
servant
's
solemn
account
of
Amiel
's
peculiarities
as
exhibited
among
his
own
class
--
and
when
we
were
driving
to
Lord
Elton
's
that
evening
I
told
something
of
the
story
to
Lucio
.
He
laughed
.
"
Amiel
's
spirits
are
often
too
much
for
him
,
"
--
he
said
--
"
He
is
a
perfect
imp
of
mischief
and
can
not
always
control
himself
.
"
"
Why
,
what
a
wrong
estimate
I
have
formed
of
him
!
"
I
said
--
"
I
thought
he
had
a
peculiarly
grave
and
somewhat
sullen
disposition
.
"
"
You
know
the
trite
saying
--
appearances
are
deceptive
?
"
went
on
my
companion
lightly
--
"
It
's
extremely
true
.
The
professed
humourist
is
nearly
always
a
disagreeable
and
heavy
man
personally
.
As
for
Amiel
,
he
is
like
me
in
the
respect
of
not
being
at
all
what
he
seems
.
His
only
fault
is
a
tendency
to
break
the
bounds
of
discipline
,
but
otherwise
he
serves
me
well
,
and
I
do
not
inquire
further
.
Is
Morris
disgusted
or
alarmed
?
"
