It was not difficult to persuade the most placable of queens that the Easy Chair could not have intended a personal censure. But the Chair could not agree that Thomas's conduct was unjustifiable. Cleopatra urged that the conductor of an orchestra at a concert is not responsible for the behavior of the audience.
"It is enough that your Majesty has been displeased, and that I have unhappily been the occasion," said the Duke, kneeling; "although quite ignorant of any purpose beyond a few words of gallantry; and I sue thus low for your Majesty's pardon." So saying, he kneeled gracefully down. "Thou hast it, George," said the placable Prince.
Gardiner, indeed, was gliding towards them, drawn, in spite of all prudence, by his invincible hatred. The King watched the pair of them with his crafty eyes, deep seated in his head.

He was followed by a short, stubby little friend with a sandy beard, who, while apparently acting as second, threatened each moment to take the matter into his own hands and usurp the place of principal. Straw Hat was placable and quite disposed to accept an expression of regret that fright had been occasioned. Sandy Beard would not have it so, and urged Straw Hat to make a complaint.
