After which, side by side, the two collies big and little old and new walked up to the veranda, to be petted by the humans who had so amusedly watched their encounter. "See!" exclaimed the Mistress, in triumph. "Lad has accepted her. He vouches for her.
The only way in which I think about such things, is that I feel the people cannot all be wise, and that it seems a pity the wisest and greatest in the land should not be chosen to lead them rightly."
