"M. de Pontchartrain had begged the king not to give him the navy," says Dangeau ingenuously, "because he knew nothing at all about it; but the king's will was absolute that he should take it. He now has all that M. de Colbert had, except the buildments." What mattered the inexperience of ministers? The king thought that he alone sufficed for all.
Why, honest truth, Sam," he added, ingenuously, "she treats me just the same as if I was like the common run of folks." The captain snorted. "Gracious king! Do stop runnin' yourself down," he commanded. "Suppose you are a little mite er different from the well, from the heft of mackerel in the keg, what of it? That's your own private business, ain't it?"

He then entered into a discussion of my rights, which, he said, were not thought in Spain to be founded in justice. In reply, I told him ingenuously the truth."

"I shan't say a word more of the matter to anybody. It's as if it never existed. I was thinking all the time there'd be an explanation of it. So I'll be bidding you good-night."
