26/26 But, for your mock at me, I want you both to know two things: The first is, I desire no headship for myself; the second is this--I take Zurich's orders because I think he has the best head, as a usual thing; and I follow those orders exactly so far as I please, and no step more. I am mean and worthless because I choose to be and not at all because Mayer Zurich led me astray. "And when Dewing is ugly he is unbearable; absolutely the limit." "Isn't he ?" agreed Eric in disgust. "Enough to make a man turn honest.". |
