Excerpt from Dangers and Duties: A Tale
"It is high time," said Edward Seymour to his brother, "to let this Tutor of ours know we are not his slaves. He is engaged to teach us, and we are willing to learn, as far as is reasonable, what he chooses to set us; but I have no notion of being domineered over at the rate we are."
"To be sure not," said Frank; "I am eleven, and you nearly thirteen; and certainly we two ought to be more than a match for this grand gentleman, who may be very glad if we do what he requires of us in a civil way, and not take upon himself to lord it over us."
