Excerpt from The Idle Man, Vol. 1
He was, indeed, a forthright lad, not because he considered openness a virtue, but because it agreed with the vehemence and daring of his character, and gratified his pride.
With all his self reliance, his heart beat quick as he drew near the door. He thought of his father's strict notions of government, his own numerous offences of late, the sternness and quickness of his father's temper, and the vio lence and obstinacy of his own; and he could not but dread the consequences of the meeting.
