I equally admired his judgment, his penetration, his address, and his fidelity.

This was not the first occasion in which I had found him of infinite use, and I was every day more convinced of his quickness and capacity.

During my short stay at Strasbourg, He had applied himself diligently to learning the rudiments of Spanish: He continued to study it, and with so much success that He spoke it with the same facility as his native language.

He past the greatest part of his time in reading; He had acquired much information for his Age; and united the advantages of a lively countenance and prepossessing figure to an excellent understanding and the very best of hearts.

He is now fifteen; He is still in my service, and when you see him, I am sure that He will please you.
