Perhaps, as you say, you have never had a fair chance yet, and I will give you one.

I believe what you say, that you will be faithful." The young fellow's face lit up with pleasure.
"I will be faithful, sir.

If I were otherwise, I should deserve to be cut in pieces." "As for wages," Philip said, "I will pay you what you deserve.

We will settle that when we see how we get on together.

Now follow me, and I will get some suitable clothes for you." There was no difficulty about this.
