- (continued from previous page)I even saw a face or two which might be handsome called
And by their very largest feet I was not much appalled.
VI
I found them sober now and then and even in the street
It seems they do not have a fight with every boy they meet
I even found some honest men among the very poor
And I have heard some sentences which did not end in "shure".
VII
It seems that praties in their skins are not their only food
And that they had a house or two which was not built of mud.
In fact the're all not brutes of fools and I expect that when
They rule themselves they'll be as good - almost - as English-men.- Collector
