But the other is undoubtedly the choicer word, and perhaps it may improve into dexterity, when thou art grown a little wiser.
We rightly deemed it an honor to gratify our guest in return, by a, few extra dishes, a richer dessert, and choicer wine; for, as a tall, well-formed, comfortable man, he did not conceal his love of good eating.
