One may be shocked at his ignorance, annoyed at his stupidity, angry at his presumption.

But the practical fact remains; he it is that is anglicising Europe.

For him the Swiss peasant tramps through the snow on winter evenings to attend the English class open in every village.

For him the coachman and the guard, the chambermaid and the laundress, pore over their English grammars and colloquial phrase books.

For him the foreign shopkeeper and merchant send their sons and daughters in their thousands to study in every English town.
