The Newcomes

CHAPTER V
29/32

I shall be able to help him with my knowledge of the world, and to keep him out of the way of sharpers and a pack of rogues who commonly infest young men.

I will make myself his companion, and pretend to no superiority; for, indeed, isn't he my superior?
Of course he is, with his advantages.

He hasn't been an idle young scamp as I was.

And we will travel together, first through England, Scotland, and Ireland, for every man should know his own country, and then we will make the grand tour.

Then, by the time he is eighteen, he will be able to choose his profession.
