Next day, Imam Din told me that the child was suffering slightly from fever and needed quinine. He got the medicine, and an English Doctor. "They have no stamina, these brats," said the Doctor, as he left Imam Din's quarters.
Children are all right, so long as you just take them for what they are: young immature things like kittens and half-grown dogs, nuisances, sometimes very charming. But I'll be hanged if I can see anything high and holy about children. I should be sorry, too, it would be so bad for the children. Young brats, tiresome and amusing in turns." "When they don't give themselves airs," said Aaron.
They grabbed an' chawed an' bolted it like so many hogs an' reached out fer more, which is the differ'nce betwixt an Injun an' a white man. The white man gen'ally knows 'nough to shove down the brakes on a side-hill. The Injun ain't got no brakes on his wheels. Injuns is a good deal like white brats.
"But Erik's sure to have some money at the bottom of his chest!" said one. "He works for good wages and has a rich aunt down below." "No, indeed!" whined Erik. "Why, I have to pay for half a score of young brats who can't father themselves upon any one else. But Karl Johan must get it, or what's the good of being head man?" "That's no use," said Karl Johan doubtfully.
There was even a vague compensation in evils, a sort of justice which re-established the balance of misfortune between the classes, permitting the poor to bear physical suffering more easily, and making it difficult for the unresisting, weaker bodies of the rich to withstand it. How vain, silly and mad it is to beget brats!
We even began to feel a little good-humored contempt for our hateful little Brats of guards, and to reflect how much vicious education and surroundings were to be held responsible for their misdeeds. We laughed and sang as we rolled along toward Savannah going back much faster than the came.
I picked it up bit by bit, and when he saw I felt for him he grew fierce and said: 'They may send me to the gold mines or cut me to pieces, as far as I am concerned, but that the little ones should starve that that, and he struck his forehead. Then I left him to say good bye to Uarda, and on the way I kept repeating to myself 'that-that, and saw before me the man and his eight brats.
Duff had run about the streets when he was a child, like Sir Gilbert, he might not, perhaps, think it so strange he should care about a houseless woman and her brats!" Therewith Ginevra burst into tears. "Abominably disagreeable!" muttered the laird. "I always thought she was an idiot! Hold your tongue, Jenny! you will wake the street.
Teach that lad of yours to be decent, as I've trained mine. I have no fear for my boys! I know what I'm talking about, and I tell you now, if my lads were like yours I'd fling the business over, but I don't see why a decent woman, and her a God-be-praised widow, should lose her living because you can't train your brats in the way they should go. But this is mine!
I only wish it to be admired by this young lady, who is a new-comer amongst us." "Admire, my lad, pray admire and above all take notice, how good these brats are, and how well they work!"
