Give it back to me, my dear. "I write," his mother went on, reading very perspicuously and precisely, "from the chair, to which I shall probably be confined for some hours." Septimus looked at the row of chairs against the wall, with a half- protesting and half-appealing countenance.
To this it must be added that, though he is able to explain himself perspicuously, yet he is not master of the graces of speech, nor even perhaps of the niceties of grammar. His voice is not tuned to those winning inflections by which men, accustomed to the higher ranks of society, are enabled so to express themselves,
'The Bight of Leogane is a horseshoe Cape St Nicholas is the caulker on the northern heel Cape Tiberoon, the ditto on the south Port au Prince is the tip at the toe towards the east Conaives, Leogane, Petit Trouve, &c. &c. &c. are the nails, and the Island of Gonave is the frog. Now every human being who knows that a horse has four legs and a tail of course this includes all the human race, excepting tailors and sailors must understand this at once; it is palpable and plain, although no man could have put it so perspicuously, excepting my friend William Cobbettt or myself.
